The one conclusive test is—"What economy will the truck ROBABLY the best customers for Packard trucks are the many solid, well established mercantile and manu- facturing houses of America. They have been in business for years and they expect to stay in business for years longer. When they buy trucks — they are buying of the Packard to maintain economy in 100,000 miles of service, makes a Packard worth as much as three ordinary trucks each at half the price. ] 3 Y The greatest mercantile house in Chicago wrote off the value of some of its Packard trucks four years ago. . These trucks are still running in first class condition. Fifieen thousand miles a year for nine years is the average of several trucks in the service of another great department store. What a small factor in transportation expense is the first cost of any of these trucks!
