More than
73,000 miles in
a New Ford
VI t #

; ; f
. THE substantial worth of the new Ford Is reflected In
- Its good performance, economy end reliability. Its"
stamina and endurance are particularly apparent In
sections where bad roads and severe weather put a heavy
extra burden on the automobile.
In less than a year a new Ford Tudor Sedan was
driven more than seventy-three thousand miles over a
difficult route* The operating cost per mile was very low
and practically the only expense for repairs was for new
nistnn ^ ? ??* generator.
The car carried an average load of 1200 pounds of
mail and was driven 250 miles daily, "The Ford has
never failed to go when I was ready," writes one of the
three mail carriers operating the car* "The starter did
the trick hit winter even at 34 degrees below acre. The
gas runs about 20 miles pe* gallon. At tlmes I potf a
' trailer whenever I have a bulky load." ' , ^
Many otherfbrd owners report the saipe satisfactory
performance. Every part has been made is cadaffr^to vr
