M range. Not liecause our competitors don't do
a gixxl job—obviously they do—but because we
feel Ford Cars have more in common with the
highest priced automobiles. The similarities are
far greater than the differences.
For example. Today, the most expensive cars in
tins country have V-type, 8-cylinder engines. Ford
Cars have had this exact same type of engine for
over 20 years.
\\ hat's more astounding, the current Strato-Star
V-8 »ells for hundreds of dollars less than several
other makers charge for a six-cylinder car. Now
there's nothing wrong with a Six but thev do cost
less to make. Ford makes a Six — the most imxlern

six-cylinder car you want. Ford has it and for less
money than the V-8, which is as it should I k .

II hat about ride' Here's another Forel similarits
with high-priced cars . . . Ruling (emfert. One of
the* misconceptions for many years has been that
weight — sheer weight—is what it takes to make a
car ride well, ford has found that you can make a
3000-pntnd car ride softer and hold the road
better In far than many cars that weigh a full 1000
pounds more. In the ’53 Ford, for example, front
eml road slunk has been reduced up to 80%. We
sav it compares most favorably with the heaviest
cars sold today.
II hat about automatic transmissions? It
would take the fingers of both hands to count the
various kinds of automatic ami semi-automatic
t.ausiiiissions on the market today. I he one vve
offer is called Fordomatic. It is the most versatile
on the market, it represents the most profound
consideration of engine-to-w heel power transfer —
ami that it does the best job for our engines isn't
even open to question. It shifts better than you
could shift by hand.
II hat you can see is also important. Here
again Ford Cars lead not only in their price field
but in the medium and upper brackets as well.
Ford visibility is Full-Circle Visibility. This means
huge, curved unobstructed glass area, front and
rear, plus side windows that allow all passengers
what the hotels call "room with a view.
Appearance? A higher price, of course, does not
make a car more beautiful. Conversely, beauty in a
Ford conies "for free. ’ Ford has found that it
costs no more to develop a beautiful car than one
that is less pleasing in appearance, ^ou can drive
up to the most exi(ji«ive doorways in the world
and feel perfectly at home in your Ford. Fords
"belong” ... in exactly the same social category
as the finest, one-of-kind creations. After all, a
Ford is a custom creation multiplied.
Uhat about running costs? Here's one place
that Ford's advantages arc obvious, lot oil and gas
economy Ford lias the big cars whipped. Ford
parts cost less. Ford service charges arc less. Foul
lire mileage is thousands of miles greater. And.
Ford depreciation is the lowest of any car on the
market—Ivar none.
M hat are Fords made of? S>me people have
the idea that the vostliest cars are made of "better
stuff." Il's true that some high-priced car» have
costlier upholsters ami titlings. What ford has is
so good, both in durability and appearance, that
you probablv could not tell the difference. You
might even prefer it. because of its better design
and more pleasing appearance.
Then there's the question of sheet metal. If you
were to measure and analyze the sheet metal
structure in the most expensive car, you most
likely would find it identical in thickness to the
corres|x>ndiug panels in Eord.
After all. then, what is the difference
between a Ford and the costliest cars?
In our opinion, the difference is largely a matter
of dimensions, weight (and the power required
to move it) plus the distinction of ow ning a car
that not so many other people own. The desire
for these things is understandable . . . and probablv
justified for people who arc Milling to pay the
price to satisfy it.
As to comparing Ford with other cars in its
price range, by all means do so if you wish. But.
as we said before, you'll get a better picture of
Ford value by comparing with cars that are most
like Fords — those that arc priced up to twice as
much. In fact, we think sou'll quickly liegin com­
paring the other cars with Ford—because the 195.»
foril has trails established the New Standard ■ the
American Road.
