Mason Motors was a United States truck manufacturer based in Flint, Michigan, founded by A. C. Mason in cooperation with William C. Durant. As a subsidiary of Durant Motors it built the Road King Speed Trucks in the early 1920s. The company also built automobile engines in 1911, and was absorbed by Chevrolet in 1915, remaining under the Chevrolet umbrella until January 1, 1918, when it became known as the Motor and Axle Division of Chevrolet. Records show that Mason Motors of Flint, Michigan, was a truck manufacturer that also supplied engines for Buick use, but did not manufacture passenger automobiles. It is distinct from the four separate automobile companies that used the name Mason between 1898 and 1914, located in Massachusetts, Iowa, Illinois and New York.
