Show MAXWELL TRUCKS DOING THEIR BIT Nation-wide Eeports From Distributors Indicate They Are Strictly on the Job. Eeports from Maxwell distributors and dealers throughout the country bear witness to the fact that Maxwell trucks are doin their share in solving the present freight transportation problem by their runs made between cities, particularly par-ticularly in those districts where much perishable produce must be carried. Operating as single units and as parts of big truck fleets, they are running over the roads in all the 'industrial and farming sections, and are making remarkable re-markable records for sturdiness, economy econo-my and general efficiency. Many experiments by Maxwell owners own-ers have proven that the results obtained ob-tained by these trucks in actual freight service are most profitable and most consistent. The showing made in the south recently, when two Maxwells, running run-ning in opposite directions between two of the larger cities, used exactly the same amount of gasoline and made the thirty-five-mile course within a few minute's of each other, is largely responsible respon-sible for an increased demand from the south. Moreover, as time is money when perishable per-ishable goods are carried, the element of time enters into consideration. Ilere again the Maxwell truck has undeniably made good, as, with full loads, a speed of 15-18 miles has easily been maintained main-tained on the fairer highways. The value of this Maxwell to the crop-producers the larger ones and the smaller truck farmers has become patent pat-ent by actual demonstration, and the vogue of this product with the farmers is consequently easily understood. A Michigan carrier, employing several sev-eral Maxwells in his fleet, shows by a remarkable cost chart that they are among the most economical and reliable jof all his trucks, and he plans using many more of them as the demands of his business require. |
