The First Cost is only one of the savings in buying a new Ford You
also save on the cost of financing on any accessories you may want anil
on the cost of operation replacement parts and service
The economies in distribution are just as important as economies in
manufacture in keeping down the price of the Ford The money you
pay goes into increased value for the car It is not wasted in excessively
high selling costs
On the basis of performance and the inherent worth of every part the
new Ford is unquestionably the greatest dollar-for-dollar value ever of-
fered in an automobile
