21.8 miles per gallon averaged by 20
stock American cars in certified test
In the greatest road test of performance and mileage character
istics of American stock cars, 20 automobiles vied for Sweep
stakes and price class honors in the 1954 Mobilgas Economy Run.
These cars were protected with New Mobiloil Special and used
a completely new gasoline -soon to be announced to the public.
Under direct supervision of the
Contest Board, American Automobile
Association, the 20 cars started the
1335-mile course from Los Angeles,
April 5. They wound over famous
Ridge Route on U. S. 99, on up Into
Yosemite National Park, then back
to the main highway and on' to San
Francisco. The second day found the
drivers pushing their mounts through
Sacramento Valley and up the snow
packed Sierra range, then over Don
ner Summit at 7135-foot altitude, and
across Nevada to Elko. Wednesday,
the cars finished the last leg Into
Sun Valley.
The temperature during the 1335
mile trek ranged from desert heat to
near freezing; the cars traveled from
sea level to 7135 feet, with widely
varying humidity conditions that
tested the performance of the engines
and the new gasoline.
A. A. A. SANCTIONED -slock cars
identical with those you buy were
picked at random by 3-A-had not
previously traversed the route. Cars
carried usual passenger load of 4 per
sons with luggage, or the equivalent.
Deputized A. A. A. men rode In each
car as observers to check all driving
practices, see that maximum speed
limits and all other traffic laws were
strictly enforced.
ENGINES CHECKED - automotive
engineers checked, and tore down
engines. They found completely clean
engines; spark plugs, carburetor and
automatic choke were free of any de
posits. Technical papers which will be
prepared on these findings will have
special significance to all car owners,
more particularly to those whose cars
are powered with engines of modern
design wherepre-lgnltion,staUing,and
gum deposits are usually prevalent

1954 Mobilgas Economy Run was under the strict regulations and
supervision of the Contest Board, American Automobile Association.
COMPLETELY NEW MOBILGAS SPECIAL USED ON RUN
The Mobilgas Economy Run was the
final and conclusive test In an ex
haustive series of research and road
tests of New Mobilgas Special.
The more than 28,000 miles covered
by the competing cars capped the
most thorough checking of a gasoline
under road and driving conditions,
exactly duplicating what motorists
encounter In a full year's driving.
Hence, Mobilgas Economy Run re
sults are both proof of the basic
economy built Into today's cars and
positive evidence of the mileage char
acteristics of New Mobilgas Special.
WATCH FOR ANNOUNCEMENT OF NEW MOBILGAS SPECIAL IN THIS NEWSPAPER NEXT WEEK!

SAID WILBUR SHAW, member, Contest Board,
A.A.A.-"Thls Mobilgas Economy Run shows
every motorist how he can save many dollars
every year by following the common sense habits
used by the drivers. General Petroleum and its
Mobilgas Dealers are to be congratulated for
sponsoring an event designed to teach us how to
use less gasoline"
