Stamina is the power to suffer blows 
without succumbing. The Overland, on the 
new Triplex Springs, has lasting strength and 
staying powers because it has in-built stamina. 
A Year's Abuse in Seven Days 
March 3, 1920, a stock Overland finished a test run of seven days 
and nights over frozen Indiana country roads. It traveled 5.452 
miles in 168 hours continuously. Yet under this ceaseless pounding it 
never failed or faltered and finished ready to run the gauntlet again. 
Blazing the Trail for the Army 
From July 7 to September 6, 1919, three stock Overland cars blazed 
the trail for the U. S. Army Engineers in their famous cross-conti¬ 
nent drive. These cars covered almost impassable roads in all kinds 
of weather and iti all altitudes. I hey proved again the marvelous 
stamina of the Overland, the modern light car. 
42,104 Foot-Pounds Blow on Springs 
Daily at the last annual Stock and Horse Show at Denver. Colorado 
a stock Overland leaped eighteen feet, clearing a five-foot hurdle. 
In landing it sustained a blow of 42.104 foot-pounds on its spring 
system. On Triplex Springs, designed to ward off the jolts and jars 
of the roughest roads, it emerged with not so much as a cracked 
shackle bolt. 
Races 25,000 Miles in Pursuit of Speeders 
ine Houston, lexas, police use an Overland dav and night in pur¬ 
suing “speeders.” Since October, 1919, the car has covered more 
than 25,000 miles, much ot it at 35 to 45 miles an hour. And in that 
time there has been absolutely no expense for mechanical upkeep. 
Because this car has never failed its drivers, six more Overhauls 
have been purchased for similar arduous work.
