Somehow the lovely Alice seems out of place in that bruiser of an automobile. Unless cost is the criteria, as the Locomobile was a very high-priced vehicle.

The Locomobile was indeed a fine automobile, well designed and finished to the most stringent of standards using only the best materials.

An early scholar of Einstein's special theory of relativity might well have remarked that Locomobiles were so massive as to generate their own private gravity field.

Alas, yet another marque that withered and died not long after being acquired by Will Durant!
