If a dealer pays fjon more than the true worth
of the car he must tnahc up the difference
by extra charges on the new car or rc-$ell
it to some one else at too high a price
PERMANENT value is always better than a tem
porary bargain in the purchase of an automo
bile. It pays to look ahead and consider reliability
and ultimate up-keep costs, as well as comfort,
safety, speed, and beauty of line and color.
Since most automobiles are bought for replace
ment, the value set on your used car is a factor in
almost every purchase. Frequently it is given an
importance beyond its true worth.
Used cars have a definite market value and you
You may not get the largest used-car allowance
from the Ford dealer, but that very fact should
give you confidence that you are receiving full
value in the new car. Ford charges are not marked
up or increased to cover a high trade-in allowance
on your old car.
Because there is no waste, extravagance or undue
profit in manufacturing, distribution or selling,
every, dollar you pay for a Ford brings a full dollar
in return. In lower first cost, in reliability and long
are" justly entitled to an allowance based ron' that ? life," in the low cost of operation, service and
value. It is not fair that you receive less. It is not
to your best interests to receive more.
If a dealer pays you more than the true worth of
the car he must either re-sell it to some one else
at too high a price or make up the difference on
the new car. This he cannot do unless he is allowed
an excessive profit on the car or on financing, extra
equipment and other charges. In either case, you
pay the bill, for no way has yet been found to give
something for nothing. The money must come
from somewhere.
Roadster, $433 Phaeton, Tudor Sedan, $500
replacement parts, the Ford will save you much
more than the seeming difference in trade allowance.
FURTHERMORE, at least $75 extra value is given to
you in the new Ford in the Triplex shatter-proof
glass windshield, the Rustless Steel, the five steel
spoke wheels, and the four Houdaille hydraulic
double-acting shock absorbers. The unusually
large number of ball and roller bearings, and the
extensive use of fine steel forgings instead of
castings or stampings, are other features that show
the extra quality built into the Ford car.
