After you buy the car . . what will it cost? y" Running expense is a big fea- ture always. The car that will stand up to continuous driving clay in and day out, goes lightest on fuel, and knows no repairs is the car yon are looking for. The reliability (^f low running costs of the Ford car are no long- er matters of conjecture. Ex- perienced garage men and me- chanics, larg industrial concerns operating fleets of Ford cars, and officials of Drive - It - Yourself companies, all of whom are in a position to keep day by day cost figures, submit similiar reports that leave no room for doubt. You save money when you buy a Ford car, you save money every mile you drive.an d your depreci- ation is lower than in any other car. These are motoring facts worth considering. In addition to sound economy, the Ford car gives you beauty, speed, safety and driving comfort. We shall be glad to give you a demonstration drive at your con- venience. y y ♦ t t H.
