It is certainly significant that more and
more purchasers of the Single-Six have
had previous experience with cars ol
lower price.
There is only one interpretation of this
fact. Investigation and testimony ol other
owners have proved to these buyers that
there is a greater economy in the Single-
Six that makes it a sounder investment.
Thus many people who have always
aspired to Packard ownership have dis
covered that the gratification of this
desire is not an indulgence, but rather,
the exercise of good business judgment
