LOW first cost is just one adyantage of buying a Ford.
Of even greater importance is the saving in the cost of
operation and up-keep. As the months and years rdS by,
this saving will total many dollars.
The economy of the Ford is due to its simplicity .of
design, high quality of materials and accuracy in manu
f acturing. Every part has been made to endure to serve
you faithfully and well for many thousands of miles.
Thousands of Ford owners will tell you of the economy
and reliability of the new Ford. You find further con
vincing evidence of it in the. increasing purchases by
police departments and by large industrial companies
which keep accurate cost figures. Hundreds of these
companies use fifty, one hundred, and two hundred Ford
cars and trucks. One large corporation uses eight thou
sand! Their experience is a dependable guide for you in
the purchase of an automobile.
See the nearest Ford dealer and have him give you a
demonstration ride in the new Ford. You will be particu
larly pleased with its easy-riding comfort, ease of control,
alert speed and acceleration, and the safety of its fully
enclosed four-wheel brakes. In addition, every new
Ford brings you the added protection of a Triplex shatter-
. -
proof glass windshield.
