Popularity of Ford Cars is
l for in More Ways Than One
small, requiring not only a comparatively small amount for
them within reach of scores and hundreds of people who
car. Then, the upkeep, gasoline and tire bills are kept down
ars. The operating expense of a Ford car is easily within
;n. And last, but by no means least, the question of repairs,
i parts, is not the heavy burden that it is for other cars. Not
ts be had more cheaply, but Ford dealers carry every part in
0 repair your car without a long wait for the parts to arrive
distributing point.
ns account for the great and increasing popularity of Ford
1 apply to Ford trucks also.
I your order, better get on our list at once, so you will not
?ur turn in the delivery of the car.
