aRssinsenseny THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGION, - D. C, MAY 10, 1931—PART ONE. 73 of America’s leading business coneerns have bhought 27,605 Chevrolets — @] The next time you see a Chevrolet /CHEVROLET = business car or truck, notice the firm name on the side! More likely than not, it’s a concern you know, and whose business judgment you respect. A great tobacco corporation. A famous public utility. A nationally- known manufacturer of household products. Or an oil company, with stations in every neighborhood. Prominent among the thousanas of\concerns using fleets of Chevrolets, are many of the recognized leaders of American industry. And their growing preference for Chevrolet is shown by this significant fact: 73 of these out- standing business firms have purchased a total of 27,605 Chevrolet cars and trucks! If you were to examine the cos: records of many of these firms, the reason for their choice of Chevrolets would be quickly apparent. These records are based on gas and oil consumption, upkeep and repair expense, and depreciation. And they aho:v, in cold figures, that Chevrolet actually costs less tooperah; than any similar type of vehicle on the market. Twenty miles to the gallon of gasoline is nothing unusual for a Chevrolet Six. Drivers often remark about the low oil consum]-:btion. They frequently comment, too, on Chevrolet’s ability to keep running, continuously, without need for repair. And many reports show speedometer read- ings of 50,000 miles or higher, on cars that are still giving dependable service. Naturally, an automobile with such a splendid record in the service of American business represents an extremely wise investment—whether the equipment contemplated is a personal car, a salesman’s car or a truck. This is particularly true, when you consider all the advantages that Chevrolet offers above and beyond economy : thie superior performance of a 50-h. p. six-cylinder engine; the de‘pendability and safety assured by modern design and careful manufacturing; and the long life resulting from the use of fine materials. Before you make any investment in low-priced transporta- tion—be sure to investigate carefully what Chevrolet has to offer. And the more carefully you do investigate, the more quickly you will agree that today’s Chevrolet Six—at the n'ew low prices—is the Great American Yalue!
