The tailgate opening is seven inches wider than last year, too. There’s more convenience. You can have an electrically con trolled roll-down rear window in any Ford wagon . .. it’s standard in all Country Squires and 9- Passenger Country Sedans. In their field, only Ford wagons have all seats facing forward. There’s more distinction. The Country Squire (shown above) Is the one and only wagon in its field with body panels that look like mahogany, wear like steel. There are more savings, too. Ford’s Ranch Wagon is America’s lowest-priced,* full-size wagon. And like all Fords, every Ford wagon is built to be more service- free: goes 30,000 miles between chassis lubrications, 4,()J)0 miles between oil changes, brakes ad just automatically, mufflers are made to last three times as long as ordinary mufflers, and the finish never needs waxing.
