Loveland, formerly branch Home Town Stuff A recent purchaser of a Buick Automobile remarked the other day, that he had never told how he happened to buy his last Buick. (Well here’: his story). He said my 1918 Buick I had driven over 150,000 miles and on one trip that lasted almost a year, we drove it over 50,000 miles. It was this trip that decided the new car that I would buy, for on the desert of Southern California over one hundred miles from a railroad or town the car quit me for the first time in its life. Upon investigation I found that the resistance unit in the distributor had burned out. I was trying to devise some emergency re- pair when my wife looked down the road to the only , shack in ht and saw:that it was almost hidden by a Buick Service Sign. I thought, well its useless to try to get a resistance unit this far from any place, but here goes. Upon inquiry at the unusual Service Station I ex- ‘ changed forty cents for a new unit and was on my way in twenty minutes. (That's Service). It means nothing ‘ but Buick for me from now on. We asked another customer, a well known oil man, what his 1924 Buick cost to operate and here’s his reply. ‘““Well I have had the car seven months and have run it twenty- one thousand miles, that exclusive of Sundays is one hun- dred fifteen miles a day and here are my bills, Let’s add them up. His total for seven months twenty-one thous- and miles exclusive of gasoline, oil and tires was $118.55 or approximately 1% cent per mile. (That’s Economy) and that’s what my company buys cars on.” A third customer was asked how he liked his Four Wheel Brakes. He replied: “I like them so well that if I had to choose between taking off the four-wheel brakes or the self-starter, I would crank the car before I would take off the four-wheel brakes.”’ -This man has also incident- ally driven his car twenty thousand miles without having a wrench put on the motor.
