They were "OK" used cars in the day...

Now, they are CPO, "Certified Pre-Owned.

"OK" resonated better with the public I think.

Love those vintage pictures!

Buying an "OK" used car is fine, but wouldn't you rather buy a "Really Great" one?!

@jack-dodds yes, Quincy MA.   That is Weymouth Landing at the East Braintree / Weymouth line.  Quincy Ave (rte 53) heads right into Quincy Square.
