transportation
A. GOOD airtomobile is built to stand
years of use". It will provide many thousands
of mites of satisfactory Uauspui lation.
But only occasionally are all its years
and all its mileage used up by one owner. ,
Many owners turn their cars in after n aver
age use of only two to three years long be
fore the cars' lives have been exhausted.
This custom brings into the market
, every year so-called "used" cars which rep
resent outstanding opportunities to buy un
used transportation at low cost. t
Every year more and more people ap
preciate this fact. Today millions of families
are driving cars of which they are the second
or third or even fourth owners; and tins
year the volume of new car sales and trade
in transactions has created wider choices and
greater values in unused transportation
than ever before.
