uts forth this new Sensible Six in
onviction that it is the forerunner
of the type of automobile which soon shall comAmerica.
As a car it pioneers that valuable union of high power, light weight, great comfort and fixed econtoward which the sensible motorist is surely turning. It is above all things an automobile built to be used- to be enjoyed as well as to be admired. It is for the man who wants in his motor car an efficiency on which he can always rely, at a cost which will serve rather than enslave him. The overhead-valve motor in this new Oakland is of special design, simple and compact, delivering at 2600 r. p. m.., 44 h. p., or one full working horse-power to every 48 pounds of car weight. It is exceedingly sparing of fuel, and because of
its extremely light weight the car is surprisingly easy on tires. The sightly and spacious body of the new Oakis swung on specially graded springs of uncomfort, and is upholstered in genuine leather. Only the soundest manufacturing principles coupled with unmatched buying power could prothis value at so moderate a price as $1050. Oakland Motor Car Co., Pontiac, Michigan. Proper design has contrived a full 106 inches of body room upon the 112-inch wheelbase of this new Sensible Six.
