And in these days of congested highways control is as vital as power. If you haven’t tried Texaco, try it today 1 As soon as the old gas has been worked out of your engine make any test you wish. Challenge the worst hill in your neighborhood. Find a lonely, straight, road and step all the way down! Then test its idling speed. You can’t put Texaco to these tests without being convinced! Today try Texaco. And remember that this original motor spirit is obtainable only at the Texaco pump—under the Texaco Red Star and Green T. 1.
