1. LOW PRICE. Maverick is the best seller
of the 70s at 1960 prices. And you get
your money’s worth. A complete car all
ready to drive home.
2. LOW FUEL BILLS. In tests b.y professional
drivers at our tracks, where we do our best
to duplicate actual driving conditions, Mav-
erick averaged 22.5 mpg. (Some Maverick
owners report they get 25 mpg and better.)
3. 105 HORSES. Maverick’s high-spirited
Six gives you nearly twice as much horse-
power as the leading import’s engine. You
get fast acceleration, easy passing.
4. PEOPLE-SIZED INTERIOR. Maverick
pinches pennies, not people. Its front seat
gives you nine inches more shoulder room
than the leading import. Plus lots of leg
room, hip room and head room.
5. EASY HANDLING. Maverick can outma-
neuver the leading economy import. It can
U-turn in a tighter circle, nip around cor-
ners and slide into tight parking spaces
with amazing agility.
6. FEWER SERVICE CALLS. Maverick is
actually easier and less expensive to main-
tain than an economy import. Maverick
oil changes come only once every 6,000
miles arid chassis lubrications once in
36,000 miles. The leading import recom-
mends an oil change twice as often and
a chassis lubrication six times as often.
(Maverick gives you economy without in-
convenience!)
8. WIDE-OPEN TRUNK SPACE. No more
cramming in luggage just because you
have a small car. Maverick gives you 10.4
cubic feet of luggage space—nearly twice
as much as the leading import. (With Mav-
erick, you can take it with you.)
9. SOLID DURABILITY. Maverick’s unitized
body construction makes it light, strong
and durable. (And Maverick’s 3-speed
transmission is tough enough to handle
twice as much horsepower as the engine
turns out.) (Maverick may be little, but you
don’t have to treat it like a kid.)
