All Aluminum Heavy-Duty Truck Fageol's Latest a t! Achrevement

Emerging frorn the Experimental Department of the Fageol Motors Company, comes their latest achievement, the all-aluminum heavy-duty six rvheel, four wheel drive truck chassis, r,vith aluminum cab and body.

Mr. E. H. Bill, President of the Fageol Motors Company, makes the following statement: "This latest development parallels Fageol's marketing of the multi-speed compound transmission and six wheel four rvheel drive motor trucks rvhich have now been adopted by practically every rnotor truck manufacturer in the United States.

"To the Aluminum Company of America and the airplane industry is due credit for the part they have played in developing alloys of such strength and lightness which have brought about almost unbelievable reductions in rveight throughout every unit of the chassis.

"The following examples .ivill give some idea of the savings in weight as reflected in various units: Rear axle construction, saving in weight 985 lbs.; frame construction, saving in weight of over 1,000 lbs.; all other parts in like proportion.

"One of the factors of considerable interest to engineers is that there is no loss in the safety factor and thal there is an added factor of strength of 1-O% beyond that of the old style steel construction.

"Th. Fageo_l Motors Company is the only manufacturer in the truck field at this time producing an all-aluminum heavy-duty truck chassis. It is the firsitirne that a truck manufacturer has developed refinements beyond that of the passeng'er car.

"Our engineers present an interesting example of the savings in cost to the operator of this type truct . Tests shorv that a truck operating at a gross iost of $50.00 a day, with a final net profit of $5.00 to the owner, now car_ ries a 2O% increase in pay-load, at the same gross weight, with the result that there is an increase of N/o in the-nei profit of $15.00 to the owner instead of only g5.00.

_ "Th9 _E_xperim_ental and Engineering Departments of the Fageol Motors Company have had th-is niw truck chassis under development for many months. The San Francisco Automobile Show offers thi first opportunity for a public presentation of this latest motor truck achie.lremerrt b.,, Fageol."
