It is a common remark of Marmon own- ers that the Marmon “spoils” them for any other make. The beautiful way the Marmon handles on the road puts something into the owner’s system that he never quite gets out. Regardless of the many admirable char- acteristics which any other car may possess, his fingers itch for the steering wheel of a on. No other car gives him quite the same sense of balance and safety, the same “sure- footed” poise, the same comfort, the same exhilaration. If you have never ut behind the steering wheel of a Marmon and stepped on its accel- erator over country roads you have yet to learn what it means to be master of the road. There is one man who can spread out a motoring guide book on his knee and dare roads to do their worst. He is the owner of a Marman. . T. V. T.
