7 Score a blazing victory for Ford’s dollarnsaving gas economy! Ford's highcompression Mileage Maker "6” With Overdrive beat every car entered in this year’s MoWlgas Economy Him, regardless of size or weight, to sweep the sweepstakes! Ford’s winning average was 56.70 ton-miles per gallon.* And Ford’s high-compression 110-h.p. Strato-Star V-8 with Overdrive was right up there in economy, too, with a record of 4&£5 ton-miles per gallon!

The winning Ford was a regular production car, just like thousands of other ’53 Fords you see on the road today. This 1,206-mile trip from Los Angeles to Sun Valley covered all types of driving conditions. The route threaded through city traffic, where stop-and-go driving tests an engine’s fuel economy under the toughest condition ... and out »l™»g the highways of four western states.

The Ford Mileage Maker "6” took all thia in stride, wminfaimmg a speed above the required 44.25 m.p.h. minimum, to 1st in the sweepstakes! What better proof is there that Ford is the thriftiest car of all? What better way to show why Ford is worth more when yon buy it •.. worth more when you sell it! ~—
