Ask any member of the 'Woods
Motor Vehicle Company what he
is striving for and he'll answer:
"Efficiency."
And there's nothing that you
desire more in an electric car
than that. Its need is constantly
arising, every moment the car is
in use. ,
It's because of "efficiency in
the car" that we make less profit
than any other concern in the
car-building business.
We spend more time on the
Woods we take more, pains
we use better materials (some of
it imported) and we bank the
honor of the institution on every
car that leaves the 6hop, '
What we want you to do when,
you buy an electric car is to see
them all, then make compari
sons. You haven't any right to
buy a car -without making com
parisons. There's too much
money involved.
When you buy a "Woods, you
buy for years not for a season
or two. Remember we are firm
adherents of the . solid rubber
tires. Magnificent springs ab
sorb all shock that may come
therefrom and you are never in
fear of tire trouble. That's one
jf the big points in favor of an
electric car.
