GARY 3 1-2 TON TRUCKS Three Gary Zy2-1on Trucks, purchased by Kay County, Oklahoma, for public road work after a competitive test with five other leading makes of trucks. ft We now have twenty truckst on the way like those shown above, all equipped with 3 'yard steel lined bodies, with Hydraulic Hoist, that we are bringing -in for road construction work. These wll be sold under the factory's abso lute guarantee for the full period of one year. K GARY steel products lead the world. GARY Trucks are in the same class. Don't chance an unknown quantity. REPORT OF W. C. NORRIS CO. Here is the report of the W. C. Norris Motor Sales Company, of Tulsa, Oklahoma, on the three trucks shown above, and covering their experience with motor trucks In general and GARY trucks In particular. "We have just closed the deal with the County Commissioners of Kay County for three GARY 3-ton trucks. We competed with five other makes and outpulled them all. The performance of the trucks we frankly state Is marvelous. The "H" and "HU," 2 and 2Vi-ton models with four speed transmission outpull, overpower and outclass everything in their rated capacity; while the 3 ton is even greater in pulling power and load carrying capacity. We consider your worm drive, semi-floating Sheldon Axle as the only safe and sure form of construction for hard usage and to withstand the strain and abuse to which a truck is subjected in the oil fields and kindred lines of work. Our observation, experience and knowledge of actuat results In meeting oil field requirements, with heavy loads and no roads, convinces us that GARY TRUCKS can be relied upon in every in stance and will deliver a long life of service at a nominal upkeep and low cost of operation. We are for the GARY TRUCKS strong and shall concentrate our future efforts exclusively on the GARY line. W. C. NORRIS MOTOR SALES CO., (Signed) N. D. Southerland, Gen. Mgr. Note: The W. C. Norris Motor Sales Company are a million dollar concern, and one of the largest In Oklahoma. After several years' experience with other lines of trucks, they have dropped them all and rely exclusively on GARY Trucks for heavy duty oil field work and for all purpose usage. READ WHAT YOUR NEIGHBORS SAY. Can You Beat It? Mansfield, Wash., "January 29, 1919. Gentlemen: You want to know how we like the 1-tou Gary Truck we bought in Spokane last July. We are more than pleased with it. We thought at the time we had bought the best, but we really got more than we expected. We have done lots ' of hauling and the truck is in just as good shape as ever. We have done more hauling than trucks lots larger, and with less expense. Yours truly, (Signed) W. ,F. PENNINGTON, Mansfield, Wash. BREW8TER-BR1DGEPORT GROWERS, INC. Producers, Packers, and Shippers of Fine Apples. Brewster, Wash., August 1, 1918. Gentlemen: The 2-ton Gary Truck that we purchased from you in June, 1917, has been In service continuously since that time, and during the busy months of the fruit season we have operated the truck 24 hours a day. We have had no trouble,, requiring no repairing or duplicate ports and did not have the truck in the shop until we sent it in to have the new tires put on. We consider this a wonderful record and evidence of the highest standard of design, material and workmanship, to outwear a set of solid tires over rough roads, without having any repairing to the me chanical parts of the truck. The truck has been handled by one of our former teamsters, without truck experience, and he worked the truck over the rough roads that one will find mostly in our section. The GARY has the power and never fails to deliver the load. We think it is the best truck built, and give it our unqualified endorsement. Yours very truly, BREWSTER-BRIDGEPORT GROWERS, INC., (Signed) Sam Berry, Sec. Brewster, Wash. There is a Gary Truck for every purpose, one to five-ton sizes. All of the highest quality of design and construc tion. Certainty of Service is our slogan, imd as WEST COAST FACTORY' AGENCY we shall always be prepared to supply any duplicate part that may be required, and do any repair or service work necessary. 71 Broadway GARY COAST AGENCY, INC.
