There will be a far different audience at the automobile show in 1923!—More critical, more cautious, more anxious to get down to bed rock regarding the actual quality and mileage built into the car they buy. 909, of this year’s motor car buyers have owned one or more cars they are motor-wise! They are going to insist upon knowing, in adrvance, just what the car they buy will deliver in the way of satis- fying and continuous mileage! As positive proof to buyers of the in-built dependability and long life of its motor car, Oakland is about to make one of the most rev- olutionary announcements in the history of the industry! Oakland—a permanent divi- sion of General Motors—is going to tell the buying publicinadvancejust how many actual miles of service, free from repairs or adjustment, the Oakland owner can logically expect. Just a year ago Oakland placed upon its car a written 15,000 mile performance guarantee—and in the year that is past it cost Oak- land only a fraction of a cent per car to make good this guarantee. Today—Oakland, with years of marked success behinditscarisen- abled to give you more definite facts on the mileage its car will deliver. It knows, for instance, how long its engine will run in ordinary service beforeitsvalvesneedgrinding. And it is going to tell you! Oakland knows how far its main crankshaft and connecting rod bearings will function perfectly be- fore requiring attention—and Oak- 1and will tell you this—in advance! There are no glittering gener- alities in OQakland’s story. Oakland will give you facts upon which you can accurately estimate the mileage to be obtained from the high quality built into the Oakland Six. Watch, the Show Number of this newspaper for Oakland’s com- plete announcement! Apply Oakland’s new “mile- age-basis’’ method to thecars you see at the show—and onlya car with Oak- land quality (which will be way above Oakland’s price) wcill satisfy you.
