"In the past automobiles have been developed along two widely different lines. One has been toward a cheap, light car. Economy and low first cost have been its chief advantages. The other trend has been toward luxury. comfort and endurance at the expense of high first cost and heavy maintenance expense. The Essex combines the advantage of these two types. "The car was designed by some of the best engineers in America and is built at the Hudson plant in De- troit. It is moderately priced, eco- nomical in operation, has no useless weight, and above all, it is comfort- able. In performance, luxury and fin- ish it is comparable to the highest priced cars on the market. "While the endurance and power of the car are unusual, one of its most notable features is its comfort. Although built for five passengers, careful designing has made it pos- sible to provide more room in the iront and tonneau than is found in most seven-passenger cars. The seats are deep and comfortable. The doors open wide and the levers and pedals are within easy reach. The springs are long enough to assure comiortable riding even on the roughest road.
