New Ford Fordor Sedan Is An Economical Car to Drive ECONOMICAL because of its low first cost, and low cost of up-keep. Economical because it has been made to stand up under thousands and thousands of miles of steady running. An indication of the built-in quality of this car is shown in the extensive use of fine steel forgings. More stecl forgings, in fact, are used in the niéw Ford than in almost cny other car, regardless of price.
