‘the case ... their luxury cars are gro

“ADVERTISEMENT

Automotive “downsizing” is a trend that’s here to
stay in North America, and some of our big cars have
shed a thousand pounds or more in the past couple of
years. In the Soviet Union though, just the reverse is
wing! Take the new
GAZ-14, for example, It’s called the Chaika (Seagull),
and it measures 18 inches longer than it's less-than-tin
redecessor - the GAZ-13. The new Chaika’s overall.
iength isa whopping 240.7 inches (20 feet!), it’s width is
79.5 inches and it's height - 60 inches, It tips:the scales .
at a mere 5698: pounds-- 858 pounds more than the.
GAZ-13, Power is supplied by a 317 CID aluminum V-
8 with twin 4 barrel carbs and rated at 220 hp. The car’s__

standard features include front disc brakes, stereo, and -

headlamp washers. Gas mileage figures are not -

available for this behemoth, but clearly, tk. ce must be .

no Soviet equivalent of the CAFE mileage standards
set by the American government... :

CAFE . (Corporate Average Fuel Economy).
standards have now been worked out for light trucks,
too, and (at least in the United States) a manufacturer's
range of 4 wheel drive “general utility” vehicles must
now average 15.8 mpg. (U.S.), while all other light
trucks have to average 17.2 miles per gallon (U.S.) of
precious fossil fuel. If a manufacturer fails to achieve
the standard over it’s range of vehicles, there’s the
possibility of steep fines ($5 per vehicle for each one-

tenth of an mpg below the standard). The averages-will

escalate annually from now on, and the effects should
be as profound on the truck industry, as they already

have been (and will continue to be) on cars. Look for

smaller, lighter, and more aerodynamically designed
pickups and vans in the very near future.

Sales of light trucks have been quite phenomenal
for most of this decade, and still show no signs of
tapering off. What looked like a fad, with the on-
slaught of the vanning craze in the early seventies, has
become a way of life for a great many motorists.

Not so many years ago, light trucks were the sole
reserve of businesses, but no more. Now, well more
than half the buyers of pickups, 4 X 4s, or vans, say the
vehicles are for personal use. Commercial applications
have taken a backseat to such chores as hauling dirt
bikes or towing the family trailer. This last point is
becoming all the more important now that
manufacturers are cutting back on the size of engines
in cars. Some smaller engined cars are just nowhere
near as adaptable to towing as a light truck. When you
figure in the truck’s all-round ruggednes and go-
anywhere ability, you begin to see why so many people
are investing in pickups and vans as tow vehicles and
personal transportation.

My teenagers swear by their pickup - there's just
nothing beats it for versatility. You literally can haul
anything from a few pair of skis, to a load of gravel,
and then use the truck later the same day to go to a
movie, or a club, or out to dinner. And I haven't even
mentioned visibility, yet.

You drive from way up there in a light truck, and
it’s great! You can sce well over the cars ahead of you
and this gives you a far better chance of pvoi ing
accidents. Many longtime truck people claim this is
the main thing they miss when they drive a car again ...
they feel a whole lot more vulnerable. Not so in an F-
100 pickup or an Econoline van, though - both of
which are the sales leaders in their class, and both of
which, we have in stock along with the mini Ford
pickup. the Courier, and the #1 4 wheel drive - the new

ronco. Bronco sales have increased by about 5 times
since the new one was introduced just over a year ago,
so we're having trouble keeping them on the lot. We do
have several experienced truck reps always on call,
though, and they'll be able to spec any line of light
Ford truck for you ... anytime.
