ERENENEEEREN] Proving Essex Reliability A Fact Not to be Disregarded One cannot ignore the Essex performance of 3037 miles in 50 hours when considering light car endurance. In fact no car ever was driven at top speed for such a dis- tance or for so long a period of time. But if any doubt remained after that official proof made with a stock Essex, the 40,000 cars in service each shows the degree of Essex reliability. Thousands of Essex cars show in excess of 25,000 miles service each. And owners by their testimony are daily establishing the Essex not only as the most amazing light car from the stand- point of performance, but also as the equal of the costly large cars in the question of endurance and freedom from mechan- ical attention and expense.
