No word in motor vehicle parlance
has been more msused and abused than
the word service, and yet there Is no
one word OF greater importance or OF
moro significance to the motor truck
user. 1t is the final analysis. the foun-
dalton upon which the successful mer-
chandising OF all motor trucks must
stand. II may be said that upon this
word" success or failure depends.
There are to-day a number of good
trucks on the market, differing perhaps
slightly In construction and design, but
all coming UP to a high standard OF
perfection. with prices about the same.
BY what method then il the prospec-

| the eloquence of a clever salesman? No.
! by the personal friendship of the dealer?
No. BY the standing of the manufac-
| turer? Not entirely so.
| When the prospective buyer has set
tied upon four or five different makes
OF trucks he will then make a thorough
| investigation OF the service facilities Of
| fered by the dealers handling these par
| ticular makes OF trucks and will be gov

entire delivery system becomes clogged.
