MW and We Want To Deliver It As Soon As Possible Answers To Questions Frequently Asked About The Delivery Of New Ford Cars. Q: Can Ford now? A: Yes. order now. I place my order for a new We shall be glad to take your Q: When can I expect car, if I place an order now t to get a new A: We wish we could tell you exactly when your new car can be delivered, but there have been so many interruptions in production during recent months, we hesi tate to even make a guess. A: No, we are sorry but it wouldn't. We are in the automobile business, and na turally, we are glad to get all the cars we can, both new and used, to sell . . . but we don't let that control delivery of new cars. Q: If I make a deposit on a new car, and later on decide I don't want it, can I get my money back? A: Absolutely; whenever you want it. Q: But can't you give when I can get delivery? me some idea I Q: How will my deposit on be protected? a new car A: We're awfully sorry, but we can't, and here's why. The Ford Motor Com pany can't tell us how many cars they will be able to let us have in the near future . . . and until we know how many cars we can count on getting, we just can't forecast future deliveries. Frankly, the way things look now, it will probably be several months, and maybe even longer, be fore deliveries can be made on orders taken today. During past months there has been an acute shortage of materials and parts to build new cars, due to work stoppages in major industries and plants the Ford Motor Company depends on for supplies. And it is still difficult to get all the materials and parts needed to step up production. . So long as this uncertainty continues it will be difficult to make definite promises of future deliveries. On the other hand, every effort is bemg made to secure needed materials and parts in sufficient quantities to maintain full Ford production. And we are hopeful that the present uncertain industrial conditions will be adjusted. As soon as this can be done, Ford Motor Company can and will step up production to full capacity . . . and then it will be possible to make delivery quicker than can be foreseen right now. Q: Can I place an order for a new car, even though I don't have a car to trade? A: Yes. order. We'll be glad to take your Q: But if I had a good used car to trade, wouldn't that help me to get a m one sooner? A: AH the deposits we take on new cars are put into a special account at the bank until delivery is made. We don't use customers' deposits in the operation of our business ... so your money ,is always right there in the bank if you want it back. Q: I am a veteran of World War II. Do I get preference in the delivery of a new car? A: Yes. At least one out of every four cars we receive is delivered to a veteran whose order we are holding on our Vet erans' Order List. Q: Well, does that mean that veterans get their cars quickly? A: Yes, but, of course, not immediately. New cars are delivered to veterans in the order in which they place their orders with us . . . and we are already holding many veterans' orders. Here's the way we handle orders for new cars. Two order lists are kept: One for veterans and one for civilians. When a veteran places an order for a new car, his name is added to the veterans' list and his car will be delivered in proper rotation. The veteran's advantage is that we deliver at least one out of every four new cars we get to a veteran. Q: Well, I just have to have a car now. Don't you consider the merits of your cus tomers' needs? ' A: Yes. Where urgent need of a car is a factor, we will, in the publid interest, de termine such cases on th basis of, the now abolished, but publicly , accepted, OPA pri ority lists. Q: Isn't there something I can do to get a new car now? I am willing to pay a premium if necessary. A: We do not accept bonuses over our rrgular established prices. The new cars we get will be delivered to the people who have placed orders with us on a first-come-first-served basis. The only exceptions for earlier deliveries that will be made are to veterans and cases of public necessity, as mentioned above. Q: Why hasn't the Ford Motor Com pany built more cars since the war? A: Ford was the first automobile manufacturer to get into production with a 1946 model car . . . and was months ahead of the test of the industry. But circum stances that neither Ford Motor Company, its employees nor its dealers could control have restricted the production of new cars to only a fraction of the number the com pany had planned to build. Q: Have strikes duction? held down Ford pro- A: There hasn't been a single strike at 1 the Ford Motor Company since the close of the war. But strikes in other plants and industries have held Ford production down. In addition to the steel and coal strikes, with which you are familiar, there have been numerous strikes in plants the Ford Motor Company depends on for other ma terials and for parts. These work stopt pages created a shortage of materials and parts that have held the production of new ' ' cars down . . . and on Beveral occasions I completely closed all Ford plants for weeks at a time. We want to thank you for your patience and understanding in this difficult situation and to assure you that we are doing every- thing we can to' give you early delivery." In the meantime, may we suggest that you bring your present car to us for ser vice. We will giva it expert care, at rea sonable rates, to .keep it serving1 you well until your new Ford can be delivered.
