Buying the Wrong Car MOTOR DEPARTMENT Conpuctep By H. W. Srauson, M.E. r cars, trucks, We. gid Str FTER you have opened your pock- etbook and counted your dimes to decide whether you will buy a Ford, or your thousand-dollar bills to see if you can own a Rolls-Roy your problems are only just beginning Almost any good car rowadays has four wheels and an engine, and so the maker’s name plate won't mean very much more to you than will the type of body which you want those four wheels to carry. Selecting a car nowadays is | almost as important as choosing a house, for you will probably spend more of your waking hours in the one than in the other, and will, I hope, be able to spend more time under your house than under your car. If this is your first car purchase you may be misled by a strong desire to buy the type of car which is not exactly suited to your needs. The car | that attracts you most in general ap- | pearance may be the least adapted to quirements. The majority of turers make at least half a | dozen different types of bodies, and one | of them may be just right and the other five all wrong, so far as catering to your individual requirements is con- cerned. Look at the roadster, alias the run- about, for example, and note how many cars of this model are called upon to te bus Were the Old she would probably buy the small- ssenger roadster she could s two or three of her chil- dren on the laps of others on the seat alongside of her, hang three or four more on to the folding se extending from the running board, and pack an- other half a dozen in the folding rumble seat that opens like trapdoor from the ineptly-termed turtle-deck of many a roadster. And at that she would not be defying motor conventions or ap- ' pearances more t those half-dozen families who buy a two-pas- senger car because it is “cute” and “so snappy” in appearance. The roadster is all right for bachelor boys and bache- lor girls, or couples with no prospects before them; and then too it is a per- fectly logical ¢ sa supplement to the big touring car for those families who can support two automobile It i not a touring car, however, as those who attempt to make a peddler’s van of passenger it by hanging eve imaginable kind of suitcase, traveling bag, shawl roll or trunk from the sides of it seem to think. is true, boast of a rear, but too often Some roadsters, it storage space at the this is occupied by the spare tire, or is guarded by so small a door as to’ make impossible its use for any baggage car- rying purposes. the touring car becomes, in y, the vehicle which lives up the opera- but it does However, and e touring. ure un- carried to its name.

The removable cur- tains nowadays are made with ample celluloid windows and are fitted snugly so that in disagr cold, dirt and rain may be excluded without keeping out the entire view. The cur- tains are eas removed and, best of all, the top may be folded back so that the beauty of mountainous country may be enjoyed to the utmost. Touring takes us out of doors and is supposed to ir—what then, use of taking our house with us staying indoors when we go tour- ? And yet that is practically what many automobilists do when they use their sedans for long trips. Put the sedan, or closed fill our lungs with fresh a is the car with
