He'll tell you, you haven't seen any thing yet ? until you slip behind a Dynaflow wheel and see (or your self what this new drive does. It isn't merely that it's easy ? though all you do in normal driving is set a lever, press the gas treadle, and steer. It isn't merely the "stunts" you can pull, such as coming to a dead stop on a steep hill, then moving smoothly away, just by the way you manage the gas treadle. The important thing is that Dyna flow Drive* marks a basic change in the way power is -delivered from the engine to the rear wheels. The idea of passing through a series of gears in fixed stages, either manually or by mechanical means, is gone entirely. Instead, spinning oil is so cun ningly directed and controlled in Tun, in HfN *Y J TAYLOR Mutual Network. Mondays and Fridayt the Dynaflow unit that it instantly shapes engine power to fit any normal driving need. When you start, it steps up engine "torque" like a low gear to give you swift, surging getaway. When you accelerate or climb, it fits the pull of the engine to that particular job. When you cruise on the level open road, it delivers power with a flow ing smoothness that is far silkier than the normal high. You have manual control of direc tion simply by moving a lever. You have reserve braking power in stantly at your command ? and extra power for emergency pulls. But there is never any clutch-work ? there is no clutch-pedal. And never any gearshifting in the old 1 sense? your power plant does what the forward gears used to do. Jtvight now, of course, Dynaflow Drive is available only on Buick Roadmaster models. Go find out about it, at the nearest Buick dealer ? and be ready to put your order in, whether or not you have a car to trade. 'Optional at extra cast Moad master mad tit oniy.
