An  Engineer  s  Opinion 
This  letter  from  an  eminent  engineer  is  typical  of  the  experience  of  thousands  of 
Maxwell  owners.  It  covers  the  vital  points  of  the  Maxwell  Car — the  points  in 
which  you,  as  an  automobile  buyer,  should  be  interested. 
“When  I  heard  about  the  wonderful  value  in  the 
1916  Maxwell  Car  I  commenced  to  investigate,  with  the 
result  that  I  sold  the  roadster  I  used  to  own  to  buy 
what  I  consider  a  more  efficient  car,  the  Maxwell. 
“I  placed  my  order  and  was  fortunate  in  receiving 
through  your  live-wire  agent,  Mr.  Lustbaum,  of  this 
city,  the  first  1916  runabout  in  this  section  of  the  country. 
I  was  favorably  impressed  and  pleased  with  my  car 
from  the  start,  and  now,  after  several  months  of  service, 
I  am  entirely  convinced  that  my  judgment  was  right 
in  replacing  my  other  car  with  a  Maxwell  for  a  b"si- 
ness  car. 
“As  industrial  engineer  for  the  Consolidated  Gas 
Company  of  New  Jersey,  I  must  have  a  car  that  will 
give  me  service  throughout  the  entire  year,  winter  as 
well  as  summer.  My  operation  is  hard  on  a  car,  as  I 
drive  it  every  month  of  the  year,  through  storm  as  well 
as  clear  weather,  and  through  muddy  as  well  as  smooth, 
dry  roads.  My  mileage  per  gallon  is  necessarily  low 
proportionally  because  I  have  a  great  many  calls  to 
make  which  of  course  necessitates  many  starts  and 
stops,  which  tend  to  make  poor  efficiency  records;  this 
is  also  accompanied  by  considerable  idling  of  the  engine. 
However,  for  four  months  of  operation  I  have  averaged 
twenty-three  miles  to  one  gallon  of  gasoline,  which  is 
considerably  higher  than  I  was  able  to  obtain  with  my 
other  car. 
“The  self-starter  equipment  throughout  on  my 
Maxwell  is  apparently  well  constructed  and  to  date 
has  given  me  no  trouble  at  all,  and  yet  I  see  every  day 
other  cars  laid  up  with  starting  and  ignition  trouble. 
“The  points  that  appeal  to  me  more  strongly  as  I 
continue  to  drive  my  Maxwell  are:  The  ease  of  opera¬ 
tion;  low  maintenance  cost;  the  advantage  of  demount¬ 
able  rims  and  one-man  top;  the  cool  effect  derived  on 
warm  days  in  the  driving  compartment  due  to  the 
double  ventilating  windshield ;  the  high  tension  magneto 
entirely  separate  from  the  lighting  and  starting  system; 
the  truly  irreversible  steering  wheel,  a  great  asset  in 
sandy  and  muddy  roads,  and  most  important,  the  high 
efficiency  in  the  consumption  of  gasoline  and  oil. 
“In  my  opinion  the  1916  Maxwell  Car  is  by  far  the 
best  buy  and  greatest  value  for  the  money  of  any  make 
of  automobile  made  in  the  United  States  this  year, 
when  the  matter  is  carefully  considered  from  every 
standpoint.  I  remain,  “Yours  very  truly, 
“Long  Branch,  N.  J.”  “HAROLD  W.  DANSER. 
The  Maxwell  will  serve  you  as  it  is  serving  Mr. 
Danser — as  it  is  serving  thousands  of  others  all  over 
the  country.
