When a man takes possession of his first Cadillac, wonderful things happen to him. First of all, of course, there is the great "lift" he gets from the car itself. When he settles down behind the wheel, turns the ignition key and starts down the road for home --well, it's a great life, and no fooling! There's a wholly new feeling of security. Weight and size and strength are all about him. There's a new sense of mastery over the car. The response of the engine--the action of the brakes --the easy feel of the wheel . . . everything gives him a feeling of confidence he never knew in a motor car before. And, of course, he can't help noting the quick glances of approval he gets from other motorists. Quite a change from yesterday, when he himself was stealing glances at the people in Cadillacs! And so it goes on that first wonderful ride -- with a new thrill every minute--until the nose of the car turns into the driveway. And then comes the greatest thrill of all--the wild and enthusiastic approval of that little group whose welfare is his constant inspiration. Don't worry about dinner tonight--let"s all go for a ride! This is only the beginning, of course. Every day and month and year adds to the satisfaction. There's the joy of* the first cross-country trip; the pride that comes from that first matching of gasoline and mileage; and the constant proof that the dream he dreamed is in almost everybody's heart. Yes, when a man steps into his first Cadillac, he takes one of the great steps of his life. And it's a much, much easier step to take than most people realize. The cost of a Cadillac is remarkably low. And once you own it . . . well, many contend that it is as economical, over the years, as any car you could buy. Better come in and see us at your first opportunity. We'll give yoi* a ride that will thrill you--and some facts and figures that may amaze you. Why not make it today ?
