FORD V-8 ECONOMY MEANS I 7, g N expenditures for car up-keep — it’s your total expenditure that counts. How much "dollar mileage” is your car giving you? Dollars do go farther in the Ford V-8. Modern improved carburetion gives you unusual gasoline mileage with brilliant V-8 performance. Most owners of today’s Ford change oil only every 2000 miles and add none between changes. And after the first few thousand miles you begin to understand what Ford V-8 “dollar mileage” really means. cause it gives you all-round economy — low first cost, low up-keep cost, low de preciation and long life — as well as low gasoline and oil consumption. All these are big items if you aim to buy the most economical car.
