Because a horse had a log on four
corners, hair on the outside, and a
place for a collar, would not satisfy
an experienced horse user that said
horse was a "good buy," no matter
how low the price. Qualificatious
would be considered speed, endur
ance, possible performance, probable
years of service, and cost of maintain
ence would be the factors determin
ing the value, and he would not ex
pect to find these qualifications In
a cheap horse.
There is Just as much difference in
motor trucks as in horses. Some
makes of motor trucks are made to
sell and like the cheap horse they
possess "similar points of construc
tion" to their better brothers, but
they will not deliver the goods and
last. They will have worn out by the
time they have paid out, (which make?
them a poor investment at any price.
Satisfactory performance for a per
iod of years after it has paid for It
self is what established a trucks val
ue. Gary motor trucks are long life
trucks. They are correctly design
ed, built of the best and highest
priced units by the best mechanics
and backed by the Gary reputation
