Over a period
of years
THE Ford car has remained the undisputed
leader for value in the motoring world.
There are certain fundamental reasons why
this is true. It is a car, properly designed and
staunchly constructed, having a motor which has
proved itself reliable, long-lived and economical.
It is adequately serviced by an organization reach
ing to every community and neighborhood.
These combine to give the Ford car the highest
resale value'in proportion to list price.
And as production volume of the Ford has grown
the purchase price has been steadily reduced.
