Dodge Cars Set Weekly Delivery Record for Dodge Brothers
Dodge Brothers' dealers delivered 5,694 cars to buyers in the week ending April 5, a new weekly record surpassing the prior week by over 100 vehicles. The company notes these figures reflect actual retail deliveries, not production, and shows sustained gains since December 1923. Through the first quarter of 1924 deliveries rose 21 percent versus 1922, even as dealer stocks remain low due to near-record production and a favorable weather period boosting sales. Harter B. Hull reports continued strong deliveries in two weeks of good weather, signaling an imminent shortage of many Dodge models.
