Ford Introduces Glass Roof Mustang

Next summer the Mustang will be celebrating the 45 years its been riding on the road and the success it has had. Of course this means that they will be creating a special Mustang for the occasion except this time they have decided to change it up a bit and do things a bit differently by adding on a new option when buying a Mustang. They will be able to choose between a coupe, convertible, and glass roof.

The 2009 Ford Glass Roof Mustang will come with an available factory-installed glass roof and will be assembled at the Automotive Alliance International plant in Flat Rock with the glass to be installed at Ford’s adjacent vehicle personalization facility.

Sync Your Ride!

I'm relatively sure that if you are among the millions of us who watch TV, listen to the radio, or read magazines, you've probably seen the new Ford commercials for SYNC. So, what is this new technology called SYNC? Well, I'm glad you asked.

SYNC, developed in a joint venture with Microsoft, and based on Microsoft's state-of-the-art Auto Software, is a voice-activated mobile phone and digital music system from Ford, Lincoln and Mercury. SYNC enables drivers to use simple voice commands, hands-free, to operate most Bluetooth enabled phones and most popular MP3 players.

Since it public introduction, SYNC has met with rave reviews. The magazines are lauding it, customers are loving it and it's having a positive impact on the entire Ford, Lincoln and Mercury lineup.

The introduction of SYNC has given Ford the competitive edge over other manufacturers. Unlike General Motor's OnStar, SYNC requires NO monthly subscription fee (aside from the regular fees your already pay your wireless phone provider for your particular calling plan) and at only $395, is much less expensive. In addition, SYNC version 2, will automatically dial 911 when it senses an airbag deployment - unlike OnStar who's call center is notified of an accident and then summons 911.

Simply put, this product is AWESOME!
