Three Times As Many People Are Buying
Franklin Enclosed Cars
"AMERICANS." said a rortHgn critic, "knoyvtiio
jf price of ever.v tiling and the value of nothing."
That was before we entered the War. Today
il is a different story. The past fevv months have
developed a remarkable understanding of the Na
tional duty to curb needless w astc and elrav jgnncc.
A typical illustration is the change in stnndaids
of judging and buying an enclosed car. Only a
short lime back this type of car had to be every
thing but practical to attract the average car buyer.
He wasn't interested in upkeep because his eye
was on ponderous mechanism. Gasoline and Urea
didn't worrv him because he was comparing wheel
bases. And" selling his old car at a fire-sale price
for a new model of another make be figured was
part of the game.
But today economy both in gasoline and
tires is being forced daily on the attention of the
motorists by rising costs, by Government officials,
by newspapers and magazines. And now hcis
looking for a nay o rui his cost in half and main
tain his mileage.
An unfailing gauge of the worth of any fine
car today is the way it is selling today. The sales
fads about the Franklin arc interesting.
The present and net building schedule of
Franklin Cars will not tatth up with orders on
hand. Franklin Car. arc being built at the rale of
three limes as mam as a year ago and the demand
continues to exceed production.
Franklin Enclosed Cars were bound to become
more popular each car, ccn in normal times.
The War, forcing mii7i7,v and economy before every
thing else, quickened this movement.
Today, as for fifteen year-, the Franklin Car
stands as the vwst practical, efficient and economical
fine car in America.
Consider the significance of 179 Franklin Open
Cars recording on July 13th, 1917 (under standard
efficiency rules) the remarkable average of 40.1
miles to the single gallon of gasoline. High gasoline
mileage means economy all along the line. Owners '
tire reports, orr afuc year period, average 10,203
miles.
And the awe economieN of the Franklin Open
Models apply, w ithin a few per cent, to the Frank
lin Enclosed Cars.
There is something here for every car owner
to think about and these arc days w hen a car uvv tier
has to think if he wants to ride.
