Operating costs are no greater. And the higher first cost is completely offset by the longer period the Packard owner gladly keeps his car. Tm in a nutshell is the reason so many : of your friends and acquaintances are driving Packard cars. Why not enjoy the distinction and satis- faction of Packard ownership yourself? Let us give you a Packard demonstration —~the new kind of demonstration with. . facts and figures set down on paper in black and white! We can quickly show you that gasoline, oil and tire costs are just as great for your present car as for a Packard—if your car compares with a Packard in size. This is true even if your present car cost but half of the Packard price. And we can show you that license, insur- ance, garaging and repairs for your present car cost just as much in the aggregate as they would cost for a Packard. This leaves only depreciation to consider. And depreciation on half-price cars traded THE A S K M AN ineverytwovérsoraoisiustasm as depreciation on a Packard kept twice that long. i That is why we say,“You are paying for "a Packard.” And that is why we invite you to own one. * We know you will want to keep your long- lived, always-modern Packard far longer —in months and miles—than you ever kept a lesser car. And that its beauty and lux- ury will be a source of satisfaction long after the purchase price has been forgotten, The price of the most popular model of the Packard Standard Eight—the five-pas- senger Sedan—is but $2485 at the factory. Ten other body styles are available on the' 127% and 134%:-inch wheelbases at from $2425 to $2885. Why not let us appralse your present car - —and tell you about the convenient Packard monthly payment plan? W HO OWNS ONGBR, Packard Washington Motor Car Co. . 0.
