ARE
TODAY'S CARS?
Keith McClure
Back in the days when granddad was a boy, folks;
thought that the automobile was a modern miracle, thirty
miles per hour was a reckless speed and that engineering
wizards had "gone about as fur as they can go" in develop-
ing horseless carriages.
Youngsters won't remember, but back before the inven-
tion of the self starter, all cars were started with a mighty
heave from a hand crank that every motorist carried as a
necessity. The cranking action was to the right and it often
required numerous turns before starting. Then When it did
start, ,the counter thrust When the engine compression forced
the crank back left many a pioneer motorist with a broken
'Progress since then has meant thousands of improve-
ments. Mufflers, for instance, would be fifteen feet long
and two feet in diameter if built on the standards of thirty
years ago. Modern cars are truly mechanical marvels.
Machined electronic tolerances are finer than one-tenth
thickness of a human hair.
Therein lies the primary reason car dealers exist and
are important - to give individual attention and service
to a mass-produced product,
Car owners NEED a quality dealer. Not just as a store
from which to buy a car, 'but for service. They should look
for the type of garage that sells service first. Then the
end result will 'be that they'll be far happier with the car
they buy there.
