Langs, of the Lange Motor Car Co. "For a tour to be thoroughly enjoyable, there must be ample and convenient luggage room. In the old days motorists put up with a lot of Inconvenience along thla line. Most of the luggage had to be carried In the rear compartment of a four seated car. with the result that It restricted passenger spate, to aay nothing of having heavy bags bang ing 'around. The resulting discomfort took much from the Joy of touring. "In the 1937 Chryslers, however, a family can tour In perfect comfort with all the luggage required for an extended trip, carrying enough clothes to suit , all occasions. The touring models In both the Chrysler Royal and Chrysler Imperial lines carry large trunks aa standard equipment. These trunks not only are commo dious, but skillful body engineering has blended them Into the body lines so that they do not mar the rear contours of the car." says Mr. Lange.
