This is significant. For the simple reason that Detroit is the Home of Auto v mobiles. More than three-fourths of the cars manu factured in the United States are made in Detroit In Detroit a BIG percentage of the residents are either directly engaged in the motor industry or come into DAILY contact with people who are. They talk cars. They study cars. They hear gossip from all the great factories established in the city. They know the plants and the efficiency of the manufacturing organizations. They know the men back of the cars. s And as a whole, knowledge of automobiles Is far more general and EXACT in Detroit than in any other city on the earth. So tvhen you knotr that for the entire year of 1915, registrations in Detroit showed MORE Studebakers v in use than any other cars selling at more than $500, it can mean but one thing: that to the people of Detroit people vrho KNO W cars and who KNO W VALUE IN CARS, Studebaker offers the top value of the market I i.nd this fact is all the more significant when you know that Studebaker has only been selling cars in Detroitfor about half as long as its nearest competitors have. In half the time, Studebaker has outstripped them all, and today you go to Detroit, and you find more Studebakers on the streets than any other make of cars costing over $500.
