Rateif ? engineered at the Dodge factory to fit a

Let us show you how a Dodge " Job-Rated " truck
will cut your hauling costs.
Reduce com with economical power ? Dodge
truck engines have four rings per piston, light
weight aluminum pistons, compression ratios as
high as 7.0 to 1, and other economy values.
Reduce costs with low upkeep? Vou get such
money-saving advantages as chrome-plated top
piston rings, exhaust valve seat inserts, positive
