GULF WINS MORE “HILL TESTS”
THAN 32 GASOLINES COMBINED
Will your car have more power on any
one gasoline? HERE’S YOUR ANSWER..
Gulf tested a total of 33 gasolines on famous
American hilts—12 Hills in localities from
Massachusetts to Georgia—and here is what
they found...
The power of different gasolines varies
widely! And of all 33 gasolines, Gulf is uni-
formly best. 7 out of 12 times, it propelled
a car and load up mountain grades farther
than any other gasoline tested!
It won more hill tests than 32 other
gasolines combined! Prove it! Drive into
a Gulf station, fill up, and test the power
of That Good Gulf for yourself!
A BORROWED FORD teits 12 competing
gasolines on Muldrough Hill, near West Point,
Ky., to see which gas can pull the car and
3300-lb. load farthest up hill in high gear.
