How War May De
of a Hudson S
These arc times when no one who will want an automobile
within the next twelve months can afford to put off buying.
The onlu certain wan of getting a Hudson at all, or to
obtain it at present prices, is b buying now.
War conditions so greatly affect material, supply and costs
that future car production is uncertain.
Note how costs have increased in the essential materials as
shown in the above table.
All materials have gone up in price at an unprecedented rate.
Pig iron sold at an averagepri ce of $16 a ton for a period
of 25 gears before the war. It is now above $50 a ion.
All automobile manufacturers have or soon will make new
price advances. They have had to on account of increased
cost. On cars selling at $1,100 and above, the increase has
been as much as $200.
Cars which have made no record for performance or endur
ance and which have sold in the $1,000 to $1,300 class are now
priced in the Hudson Super-Six class.
Increased costs are similarly affecting all makers. None
can permanently escape them.
Hudson Prices Not to Advance Now
The Hudson factory is now in production with materials
bought at last year's material prices. When they arc all gone,
then Hudson cars, too, must go up in price.
The number unsold and in production is limited. All dealers
know the amounts of their allotments, and so far as we are
able, they will get their full supply.
Dealers who have not made arrangements in the way of
stocks and rely upon factory supply to meet their wants will
have to take their chances in getting cars along with the men
who put off buying.

aterials Growing
to Get Costs Increasing
i Buy Hudsons for Less Now Than Later
As long as the present supply lasts, Hudson Super-Six cars
can be bought at present prices.
Compare them with the prices now asked for cars which
have shown no such proofs of endurance.
Go minutely over the claims and recommendations made for
any car; check its price with that of the Super-Six and then
take into consideration the character of dealer representation
and service offered by the different cars and decide.
lIVo has made such demonstrations of endurance?
No other manufacturer has established important records as
an indication of the performance capabilities of his cars. In
fact, since Hudson first began to make records for speed,
acceleration, power and endurance, there have been no other
interesting tests announced by other makers.
Before Hudson began to make new records, it was the cus
tom of many makers to use the speedway and the cross-country
run to prove their cars. We did not resort to a new method to
prove Hudson performance. But what the Super-Six has done
has apparently proved how hopeless it is for any to attempt to
equal its records. At any rate, no one now disputes Hudson
supremacy with any proof that any car equals or excels it.
By deciding now you can get a Hudson Super-Six at a price
not much above what is asked for cars which formerly sold at
a much lower price.
If you wait, the inevitable adjustment of prices will
again force you to pay the true difference.
It is needless with most buyers to explain the greater value
of the Super-Six. You no doubt have long preferred to own a
Hudson. Now the question of its costing more than .some
other car should not deter you. But your decision must be
made soon if you want to get a Hudson Super-Six. Other cars
iiuvcti i even a (Mite iiuvumagc now.
