Wllen’ You Trade Your Car

Ford owners are continually being approached by automobile salesmen who wish to “‘accept’’ Fords as part payment on more expensive cars. v It is logical that automobile dealers should be eager to trade with Ford owners. No other used car is so easy to seil as a used Ford—because everyone has confidence in Ford quality. And it is not expensive {0 recondition, since Ford repiacement parts are lowest in price. Most automobiles carry greater discounts to dealers than the Ford —another reason why other dealers niay offer the Ford owner a larger trade-in allowance. 4 '

But, bear these facts in mind: The amount of the trade-in allowance you can get is not the most important thing for you to consider. The big thing is the difference you have to pay. And remember, that the higher priced car will not be so easy to dispose of when you come to trade it in. L If you wish to trade your Ford for a new automobile, stick to the car that you know to be dependable, useful and economical. Go to your Ford dealer! He will give you a fair and liberal allowance for your present Ford and will gladly arrange payment of the balance to suit your convenience.
