But it does—and for good reasons. The whole FIREBALL engine was de- signed and built to get the most good out of modern gasolines. And the simple secret of Compound Garburetion is that it keeps your engine running on its most frugal diet for all normal driving —and pro- vides full feed only when you need, want and call for the lift of extra wallop. Meantime even the gears are helping save money— for the regular high gear in a Buick gives you the econ- omy of the so-called \gas-saving\, top speeds you hear boosted so enthusiastically. The big thing is, of course, that this is no small car that's setting these economy figures. There are all the room, size, impressiveness, comfort and downright thrilling performance you expect from a Buick. Maybe that's why people still hesi- tate to believe their own eyes. We assure them, however—and you too—that it isn't because the needle's out of kilter that it goes down so slowly. It's because that needle's in a Buick—a thrifty and thrilling 1941 FIREBALL Buick.
