Maxwell cars are made of the best materials that money and brains can buyand they are made right. You can get out of any car only what is put into it Fourth, because you get everything in a Maxwell that you can get in any car and you get it for less money. The answer to this is that the Maxwell is a light car and it is built in enormous quantities. The Maxwell Co. is one of the three largest pro ducers of high grade motor cars in the world. Fifth, because the Maxwell will give you more miles per dollar than any car built. We say this without hesitation or doubt. It is our honest belief and we are willing to prove it by Maxwell owners, by comparison with any other car or by any other way you suggest or prefer. The Maxwell will please you. We know it will.
