Sweeping Ahead To Victory
Ford sales for both passenger cars and trucks have
been mounting steadily since the introduction of
the new 4’s and 8’s.
Today sales figures have reached a position of im¬
pressive leadership exceeding other makes by a
comfortable margin.
Although no cars were produced by the Ford Mo¬
tor Company, during the major portion of the first
half year, at the present stride Ford sales leader¬
ship will again be established for 1932.
Thus again the adage that ‘‘The best show will
have the largest crowd” has been proven.
