Joe Tupin of B F Goodrich at Joe's Service Station explains high tire demand due to increased driving and older cars in service. He cites gasoline consumption data showing rises to 680 gallons per car this year and a projected 685 gallons in 1947 with further gains through 1950, sustaining replacement tire demand.
