You'll like what you see. k Look at the costs. Ford’s first cost is low. Resale value is high. M odern Short Stroke engines—Y-8 or Six—are designer! for less friction, less wear, lower running costs. Maintenance costs are lower, too, because Ford trucks are built stronger for rugged long life. And a 10-million truck study jzrores Ford trucks last longer. Ixiok at what you get and you'll see you get more in a Ford. For example, more horsepower per dollar - proved by a comparison of factory-suggested li t prices and net horsepower of all truck lines. You g»*t more comfort with a Driverized Cab, and more safety with Ford’s exclusive Lifeguard features. Ixiok carefully . . . consider everything. You'll agree Ford trucks cost less, give you more.
