and divides THE LOAD ON THE REAR WHEEL, THEREBY PREVENTING EXCESSIVE impacts on the tires and as the two rear axles rotate at the same speed it prevents tire slippage, hence the greatly prolonged tire life. Pneumatics have shown an average life of over 25,000 miles on Moreland six-wheelers.
Truck Economy
The wages of the driver and the gasoline consumption are the two most important items in truck operation; a greater payload capacity is the logical solution, provided the chassis weight can be kept down.

The heavy duty six-wheel double-deck buses which were furnished last year to the Los Angeles Railway Company were the firSt of their kind in the world and today the entire country is coming to Los Angeles to examine the progress made in the bus transportation of this city.
While a number of other manufacturers have been experimenting with six-wheel trucks, the Moreland Company were the first in production and are making deliveries continuously. Wherever large quantities of materials have to be hauled at lorv cost, the Morelancl six-wheel trucks have been found supreme.
Patents for these constructions have been issued or are pending in the principal countries of the world, the Moreland Motor Truck Company being the only licensees in the west under the Goodyear rights.
