Hudson-Essex Is backing Its new
y. d. or "at your door" system of
selling cars with the greatest six
cylinder production in automobile
history, according to word received
from the company by C. S. Ben
jamin dealer.
So confident Is the Hudson or
ganization of nubile approval in Its
move which abandons the practice
oi i. o. o. Detroit prices and begins
the quotation of actual delivered
prices , to the buyer that it has
stepped its volume up to 1300 six
cylinder cars a aay.v This Is to bo
increased at once to 1700 doily, and
men to nigner figures. This is a
iigure, says Mr. Benjamin, which
never before has been even ap-
pronencu in tlio six cylinder field
"In the week since our announce
ment of this revolutionary new
plan,", declares Mr. Benjamin, "the
motoring public has told us In no
uncertain terms that it is for

livered at their home, with freight,

"Students of the motor car; busi
ness have often predicted this lm
poi-tant change. The public has al
way beon for it. But 'f. o. b. De
troit - was a custom' - built' up
through-. 25 years, and naturally
was difficult to overturn. A Oordlan
knot of tradition grew up around
it. Now Hudson-Essex distributors
and dealers, with one blow have
cut that knot, and brought about
the, improvement---so - often- pre
dicted. :
'We consider this move. In the'
light of a modern business prac
tice. It is in line with the manner
in which all other merchandise is
sold. One-prtce-to-aU . and ' that-'
price-plainly-stated are the very
basic factora in modern business.
The automobile business has been
almost the oqly exception, to this
rule. -
"In the past few years, Hudson
Essex has made repeated moves to
put its cars In the hands of buyers
on the best possible terms. That one
undevlatlng policy has made Hudson-Essex
the largest builder of
sixes. Now comes the, most im
