Doans Pills Among the 248 basic gross vehicle weight chassis models just announced in the new Dodge "Job- Rated" truck line is this B-l-H tractor of 128-inch wheelbase, 15,600 pounds gross vehicle weight (1 H-ton nominal rating) and 28,000 pounds gross train weight. The trucks have many new features. Cogdill Announces New Model Dodge Trucks Detroit, Mich., Dec. 20 ? A completely new line of Dodge "Job-Rated" trucks comprising 248 basic chassis models ranging froqi 4250 to 23,000 pounds gross vehicle weight and up to 40,000 pounds gross train weight was an nounced today by L. F. VanNort wick, Director of Truck Sales of the Dodge Division, Chrysler Corporation. Some models of the new trucks will be displayed starting January 7 by Cogdill Motor Co. in Sylva. A combination of massive streng th and smoothly flowing lines is the keynote of styling for the new trucks. They were designed to combine appearance with comfort, safety, performance, economy and ease of handling. Front axles have been moved back and engines have been ay' ? ed forward to place more ofVne gross vehicle weight on the front axle and provide better weight distribution. The wheelbase for conventional models through the 2-ton has been reduced eight inches, while the 2!/2-and 3-ton models have been reduced six inches. The new trucks have been engineered - so that despite the shorter wheelbases, the cab-to-axle dimensions remain practically un changed, making it possible to use the same length bodies as before. New ease of handling and driv ing has been provided by the short er wheelbases apd wider tread | front axle, together with cross ! steering, which is a new feature on all conventional cab models. The cross steering permits a 37 degree turning angle both right and left. Drivers now can park or back into alleys or up to loading platforms with much greater ease. Road shock through the steering wheel is greatly reduced by the cross steer ing, which has the drag link run ning parallel with the front axle. Standard, de luxe and custom cabs provide more room, more visibility, more safety, and more comfort for the driver. Seat width has been increased to 57V4 inches to permit three large men to ride without crowding. The chair-height seats provide leg sup port under the knees and can be adjusted seven inches. The natural back support also is adjustable for maximum comfort. The seat cushion utilizes air combination with coil springs to provide comfort. A hand control allows the driver to adjust cush ion buoyancy to his weight or road conditions. Comfort in any season or weath er is provided by an all-weather heating and ventilating system which is an ingenious combination of truck heater, defroster vents, vent windows, cowl ventilator, and 'fresh air intake. I De luxe and custom cabs have' what is termed "360-degTee vision" through increased glass area and Installation of rear quarter win dows. Windshields and windows of the new "Pilot-House" cabs are higher and wider, adding to vis ion and safety .^Drivers can enter or leave the conventional cab easi ly from either side since the gear shift and emergency brake levers have been moved forward to give clear floor space from door to door. Conventional models can be road-serviced from the left side as the fuel tank, oil fiHer, radiate* filler, and battery are so located. Dodge has seven different en gines to handle the power require ments of its new line. Numerous engine improvements have been made. Braking systems are larger and I improved. Front- axles have, in creased load-carrying capacity. Front springs are longer. Radiator cores have been redesigned to facilitate better cooling. Excep tional improvements have been made in frame construction. NO ADMITTANCE MR. SUN! ? Here's why.
