Thxs is the question thousands of motorists are asking. - Free Whéeling is the second mile- stone #n automobile development. The first was the electric starter in 1912. The second is Free Wheeling with pos- itive control, pioneered by Studebaker in 1930—an exclusive Studebaker feature, man- ufactured under Studebaker patents and available only in the new President and Commander Eights. Due to Free Wheeling with positive control, you can shift from high to second, back and forth, at 40—50 miles an hour, and never touch the clutch. You need use the clutch only to start or back up. For the first time in a motor car you get the full benefit of momentum automatically. When your car has traveled 10,000 miles, your ‘engine has “worked” only 8,000 miles. The braking power of your engine is available as readily as in conventional cars. Yet your car glides along, in gear and fully controlled, but free and silent as though there were no gears. When you are Free Wheeling your car only seems to be coasting —actually your clutch is engaged and the gears are in mesh. 5 You save 12 per cent on gasoline, 20 per cent on oil—even more in heavy traffic. Strains on engine, tranamxssxon and rear axle are lessened; tire life is lengthened There is nothing*hew to learn—for driving the new President and Commander Eights is simplicity itself, Your steering gear rights itself after a turn—the car swings to “‘straight € W Studebaker’s epochal contribution q—the sensation of 1930/ ahead”’-holds its course true without your tugging at the wheel. Words and phrases cannot adequately de- scribe the sensation of Free Wheeling with positive control, but a demonstration will make it clear to you. 3 The new President.and Commander Eights are larger, more beautiful, with many refinethents, but above all, they give youFree Wheeling with positive coritrol which can- not be obtained in any other carsin America. Come, experience for yourself the first really new development in motoring in years—an achievément of Studebaker’s 78 years of manufacturing progress. THE STUDEBAKER CORPORATION OF AMERICA SOUTH BEND, INDIANA : s - Positive Control With Free Wheeling under positive control, the full braking power of your engine is in- stantly, easily’ and always available in all speeds—high, second and low— for use when- . ever you desire it. vheell Fishhurne Is Honored.
