MITA TED = BUT NOT EQUALLED For the car buyer bewildered by the current ~ hubbub about “knee action, ’ these enlightening facts are offered: — Some twenty-five years ago Mr. Ford introduced I KNEW I true “knee action” through the use of an exclusive WAS RIGHT type of spring acting on all four wheels. Any wheel # could ride at any level—but the car body rode on — an even keel.” These springs were patented, but Mr. Ford knew that he was right; continued to use and improve the idea, reaching riding perfection in the present Ford car. y in Now certain other car manufacturers, in a laud- y f/W a able desire to introduce something new (and maybe / I to overcome certain driving difficulties) have devised j JH various types of “knee action” devices and mde- | ' pendent wheel suspension.” | Thus, after twenty-five years, other manufac- I / turers recognise the fundamental soundness of the T ~TL I. p principle of independent wheel springing. But while TK'j £7/ » - their devices seek to obtain the benefits of Ford I , .'£>■/ ‘ independent wheel springing we think they fall far i ] j I short of Ford accomplishment in simplicity, safety I / , / / > »1/ [ and reliability, which comes only from experience.
