Franklin Car. More than that—Franklin National Efficiency Tests:
under conditions no official test ever demanded, have produced even
more remarkable average results, because of the number of cars in-
volved at one time in all parts of the country. And—still more un-

20 miles per gallon of gasoline.
15,000 miles to the set of tires.
