Said An Owner
What One Says is Voiced by All
“You Can Have Comfort, Per
formance and Endurance All at a
Moderate Cost”
About His E,ssex
Ten thousand owners, almost to a man, voice what
yon have heard of Essex performance and reliability.
-Have you considered t,h e weight of that endorse
ment in connection with the ear you will choose]
Lei us look at it this way :
ITS MODERATE CQ8T
AND RELIABILITY
Censider the type of car that equals Essex per
formance- Some owners affirm their Essex is the
fagtect car they encountered.
CertAinly none ever thinks of a similar priced or
tike size car in connection with the speed of an Essex.
Not does anyone compare such a car with its accele
ration or hill-climbing ability.
Isu’t the comparison always with larger and high
er priced cars?
And so also is Essex finish and completeness.
There is nothing skimped or cheap about it either in
appearance or in those parts that are not visible but
which account for its reliability.
IT REQUIRES LITTLE
ATTENTION'
Though a light small ear. the Essex calls for little
attention. Its motor fulfills lits work without con-
giant attention. The car is so designed and eon-
gnuefed that it is practically free from annoying
■queake and such as may develop are usually and
•asily removed with a few drops of oil.
It is the cur for tin man who docs his own driving
and who, wliile he demands top note!: performance,
has tike time nor temperament ;■• he constantly ad
justing it.
Tkait is a quality all owners admire and 6peah #f.
BIG CAR LUXURY
SMALL CAR COST
And in this sense luxury mean® more than more
beauty and detail finish. It includes coTfort to
drive, freedom from mechanical annoyance, or per
formance limitations. It means a car one can be
proud of—one that because of what it can, commands
reepect from every motorist. Essex owners have no
fear from the dust of other cars. If they are so
minded they can lead the procession in any group.
That they will tell you if you will but ask about the
Essex.
WITHOUT EXTRA
OPERATING COST
Other ears are as economical to operate as the
Essex, but ask yourself if they are as satisfactory
is other ways as they are good to look at or ride in.
Gan,they go as fast or as quietly I Do they appeal
to you as the Essex does in these details of perform
ance and reliability?
•Essex owners know the difference. We want
yon to know it by riding with us in an Essex.
It is the light weight ear which thousands have
adopted in place of heavier, more costly cars.
They get in the Essex the quality they demand.
They obtain a performance akin to what they have
had from their larger cars at much less expense, aiid
they have no concern about reliability,
i Ail these reasons you must have considered.
Gan you answer the without knowing the Essex?
