The NEW Ford is a splendid car to own and drive
because of its attractive lines and colors, safety, com-
fort, speed, reliability and long life.
There are, in addition, three other features of
importance to every far-seeing automobile owner ...
low first cost, low cost of operation and up-keep, and
low yearly depreciation.
During the life of the car, the day-by-day economy
of owrning a Ford will amount to considerably more
than the saving on the first cost. You save when you
buy the Ford and you save every mile you drive.
The reasons for this economy are simplicity of
design, high quality of materials and care in manu-
facturing and assembling. Many vital parts are made
to limits of one one<-thousandth of an inch. Some to
three ten-thousandths of an inch. Throughout, the
new Ford is au outstanding example of flue crafts*
manship in automobile engineering.
The more you see of the new Ford—the more you
talk to Ford owners and experienced mechanics—the
more certain you become of this fact. ... It brings
you everything you want or need in a motor car at an
unusually low price.
