car value than this: 4,061
engineers bought Dodge cars in the
last Iff months!t Men who know a
great car not only praise Dodge, but
buy it m preterence to others!
Why? Because, they say, Dodge
engineering is matchless in the indus-
try. Even though it coats nothing
extra, it means not only brilliant
performance, (ewer repair bills, big
savings on gas and oil, but beauty,
comfort and luxury you never
dreamed possible in a car priced so
low!
Why pay more money when Dodge
gives you everything you coutd
ever desire in any car? Or, why be
satisfied with a small car when
Dodge gives you so much extra
value for just a few dollars more?
