In an effort to get the State Roads
Commission to fulfill a prediction
promise of completing the Crisfield-

USED CAR SALES
DURING 1910
REVEAL GAINS

Chevrolet dealers continuance, dur
ing 1910, of used car sales gains evil
dent since the factory's used car mer-
ci1andising program was launched
several years ago, assures still great
or emphasis, in 1941, on the used car
reconditioning system which from
the standpoint of the buyer is the
most vital feature of the program.
w. E. Holler, general sales manager,
and sponsor of the high-successful
operation, made this announcement.
Besides leading the industry in
ear sales in 1910, for the ninth time
m 10 years, Chevrolet dealers length
ened their lead in the used car end
Of the business" Mr.. Holler said.
'They sold 1,9O9,972 used cars, fig
ure substantially in excess of the
huge 1929 total, and second only to
the all-time peak year 1886. More
used cars were sold-by some 340,-
600 than in the calendar year 1889.
"Such a sales record reflects a
more and more widespread recogni-
ton on the part of the public that
used cars obtained from reliable
source are sound transportation val
ues. Chevrolet's effort for the last
five years has been to elevate the
quality of dealers used car offerings,
BY means of basic improvements in
The reconditioning system. 1t was
felt that in the court of time, great
or attention to that phase of used
ear operations would pay for itself
by establishing the Chevrolet dealer,
m the mind of the buyer, as re-
liable source to go to when in need of
. used car.
"The experience of dealers who
have given more time and attention
to proper reconditioning, in line with
factory recommendations, has been
uniformly good. Used car sales fig
ures for the time the program has
been in effect bear out this state
ment fully. Chevrolet dealers annual
used car average for the last seven
years-a period which goes back two
years before the program was
launched-has been 1,596,OO7 units.
The average for the last five of these
years, however, has been Lit, 1922.
The average monthly sales of used
cars, for the last IS months, have
been more than 10000 units.
Nineteen forty-one will see i'm
provements in Chevrolet dealers used
car operations even more important,
from the buyers standpoint, than
those of the last five years. For
the retail organization now has at
it's service the new Chevrolet recon-
ditioning manual, which represents
four years of unremitting work. The
term manual is really misnomer,
for the book is a large volume, CIV
ing detailed instructions for all
phases of reconditioning, not only of
Chevrolet cars and trucks, but cars
Of other makes, models, and years.
"Its adoption by dealer assures
two things: better, more reliable used
cars, and lower prices. Chevrolet
dealers throughout the country are
adopting the manual and putting its
improved reconditioning practice into
operation on a scale which justifies
our forecast of even greater used car
buyer-satisfaction in 1871.
