“Ask the Man Who Owns One.”

It was a slogan for 50 years, touting owner satisfaction.

In American luxury cars, Packard reigned supreme. Cadillac and Lincoln trailed in Packard’s wake, always trying for a new angle to dethrone the king. It never worked.

“Quality” is not a word we hear much in our modern disposable world. But Packards were built with quality first, last, and everything in between. Their lifespan was indefinite. That’s why you could “ask the man who owns one.” In the last few months, the author of this blog has seen a couple of completely original Packards for sale, a 1937 model, and a 1938 model. Neither had ever been rebuilt, just driven for almost 90 years, and both still ran and drove great. So maybe you can’t really “ask the man who owns one,” because his Packard may have outlived him by quite some time.

Regardless, we think flow measurement equipment should be built to the same standard. That’s why at a recent show, the author of this blog was horrified to hear from a researcher that he was still using one of our machines, which he purchased more than 30 years ago—and hadn’t calibrated it since.

So the quality was certainly there.

Even if the conscientious ownership wasn’t.

We recommend that you click here to see our line of long-lasting flow equipment. No matter what your flow augmentation surgery, we can and should be in your OR. And we probably will be, long after you and I aren’t.

You can always ask the surgeon who owns one.

Just make sure he’s had it calibrated.
