Why does Chevrolet keep repeating

DRIVE IT ONLY 5 MILES"?

Chevrolet engineers have tried all the cars in to-day's low-priced field, They have com- pared performance on rough rods, in traffic, over hills, through sand and mud and water. They have proved the same thing that hundreds of thousands of Chevrolet owners are proving in their daily driving:

HOW MUCH MORE SMOOTHLY A CAR TRAVELS WITH GENUINE FULLY ENCLOSED KNEE-ACTION.

HOW MUCH MORE COMFORTABLY IT HANDLES WITH SHOCKLESS STEERING.

HOW MUCH MORE RESTFULLY YOU RIDE IN A FISHER BODY CAR WITH TURRET TOP,

HOW MUCH MORE SAFELY YOU DRIVE WITH CABLE CONTROL BRAKES AND IN A STEEL BODY.

They have proved how much finer performance and better economy are secured, from an over-head valve 6-cylinder engine..

In other words Chevrolet engineers and the hundreds of thousands of owners know for sure that the Chevrolet ride simply cannot be matched by any other in the low price field AND NOW WE WANT YOU TO KNOW IT TOO, BEFORE YOU MAKE YOUR

FINAL CHOICE OF A LOW-PRICE CAR.

THAT'S WHY WE URGE YOU TO "DRIVE IT ONLY 5 MILES" AND THAT'S WHY WE PROMISE."YOU WILL NEVER BE SATISFIED WITH ANY OTHER LOW-PRICE CAR.
