HERE is the receipt for .arriving
at the real merit of a motor car.
Select a nice stiff hill with a mean
kink at the bottom of it-that makes it
impossible for you to take a run at it
Start in at the bottom from scratch.
No tricks no stunts merely go
through your gears and when you go
over the top, a glance at your speed
ometer will tell the story. No sales
talk, no advertisement can ever refute
that heartless little indicator. Speed
ometers don't lie. .
and if you will listen to them
they will sell you
a Premier.
Premier is the best hill car on wheels.
