What's Hie Hottest Hem in Cars
since the Self -Starter?
For the answer to that, just
ask any man who drives a
Dynaflow Buick.
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.
