This bit of doggerel was popular in a more simple, less
affluent yesterday. The trick was to make things last as long
as possible, whether it was an all-day sucker or a suit of
clothing.
It is ironic that today, when the philosophy seems to be,
"Use it up quickly and get another one," some products are
actually built to endure longer.
Take the modern car, for example.
There is no question that today's automobile is built to last,
Tires, for example, can actually give service ten times
longer than they did years ago.
Paints are more durable, bodies are better prepared to
withstand deterioration.
Engines are better built to cope with punishment that was
undreamed of only 20 years ago.
In fact, every component has a lab-tested durability going
for it.
The secret of taking advantage, of built-in strength lies in
a -conscientious program , of maintenance. By practicing such
a program, you stand to save in several, important ways.
First, you preserve yOur car's vital components from pre-
mature wear. A timely squirt of lubricant here, a quart of
oil there often can prolong engine and chasis life, avoiding
lengthy and expensive sessions in the service bay.
Periodic service also saves you money as you go. Tune-ups
save gasoline mileage and cut short chances of engine dam-
age and road service calls. Proper wheel alignment and
balancing add, miles to tire life.
Frequent washing and waxing stop body and paint deterior-
ation. And when you do trade in the car, the money you spent
in maintenance also will be returned, at least in part, by a
higher trade-in value.
Even if good tar care weren't economically wise, you'd
still benefit measurably from its practice — especially at
this time of year. Nothing can ruin a spring and summer
holiday trip like a breakdown which at best can cost you •
time and money and at worst could lead to a serious
accident.
Somehow the most scenic road you can travel becomes
a drab, miserable stretch of highway when you': car has
quit running on it.
