Every Hood tire in service has ticcn bought for
just one of two reasons:
either to replace some other mnke that didn't
satisfy
- or to replace another HOOD that did satisfy.
No Hood tire ever started out a« factory equip,
rnent, bought by a man who didn’t have to pare
for replacement* They’re bought because their
quality means extra mileage, longer life.
