The M anufacturer's Trophy at Daytona Beach (Top award winner for all- around stock car performance) . . . Class A Award in Mobilgas Economy Bun (greatest ton-miles per gallon) There is no other car in the low- priced field that comes near to equaling these performance records. Because no other in the low-priced three gives you such performance, handlingjmd riding features as: 1 . Highest Torque V - 8 Engine in the field. Ford gives you faster acceleration, power when you need it —even more than comptitor’s extra-cost “power packs!" 2. 3. 1 5 % eosier steering. Tests prove that Ford is up to 15% easier to steer than its nearest competitor. All bear ings are precision, anti-friction type to make driving far less tiring.

In 1955 alone we placed orders for 15,475 car» to cost approximately $183,0X1,000— a commitment of roughly three and a half times the 1955 net income of the S. P. System. Right now we have in service something over 75,000 freight cars of all types. This represents a ten-year increase of 38% in ownership and 46% in carrying capacity. This is an outstanding railroad record. We think this record of freight car purchaseg is good evidence that we are doing everything we can to take care of the requirements of our shipper».
