Shredded Wheat is the food of the top-notchers who “do things.” to all branches ¢ tters relating to petro- a1 in charge | ich in- ope of the | e Make sure—in advance——of the quality built into the car, and of the satisfying mileage it will deliver! For the first time in motor car history, you can do this! Under Oakland’s “mileage- basis’’ plan you can know, before you buy, those things you have hitherto, perhaps, learned only by experience. Oakland will tell you, for in- stance, that its valves will function properly for 15,000 miles or more be- fore requiring grinding! Oakland will tell you that its main crankshaft bearings and con- necting rod bearings will require no attention or adjustment under 40,000 miles or more! An QOakland Six will deliver 20 to 25 miles per gallon of gasoline— 15,000 to 25,000 miles per set of tires! And the major farts of an Oakland Six (axles, frames, bodies, etc.), will endure throughout the life of the car. When you weigh these fig- ures in the light of your own per- sonal experience as a motorist with cars of various makes—you will ap- pretiate how remarkable they are. And when you remember that Oakland last year guaranteed the performance of its engine for 15,000 miles, and that it cost Oak- land only a fraction of a cent per car to make good this guarantee —then vou will appreciate how certain Oak- iand is of its ground and how accu- rate these figures are! See all the cars at the show! —judge them all on Oakland’s “mileage-basis’® plan—and only a car with Oakland quality (which will be way above Oakland in price) will satisfy you!
