PEOPLE ASK ME
"WHY FORD, WHY NOW?"
|
|
So, with great pride, I tell them. As the lone Big Three automaker passing on the federal bailout, Ford is prepared to move forward with their head held high. Ford remains free of government assistance and is in a position to succeed by continuing to offer vehicles that boast quality, fuel efficiency, safety and value. During the past 106 years, Ford Motor Company has faced its’ share of struggles, beginning with its’ ability to survive the Great Depression. Now, during these uncertain times, Ford will once again continue to move forward in a positive light. During a recent conversation, Alan Mulally assured me when he said, “The real difference is in our plan and the strength of our great new products.”
As your local family-owned and operated Ford dealership for the past 47 years, I have been a witness to the ongoing commitment of Ford Motor Company as it relates to improving the quality of our vehicles. Today, not even Honda or Toyota can beat Ford quality.1 Plus, Ford makes 15 vehicles that earned the Top Safety Pick from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety – that’s almost double what Toyota earned. Ford has more 5-star ratings than any other automaker. 2 Now that’s the American way.

The new Ford Fusion is the most fuel-efficient midsize sedan in America. The Fusion Hybrid gets 41 mpg city3 – that’s 8 mpg better than Toyota Camry! Plus, the gas-powered Fusion beats the gas-powered Camry, Accord and Altima.
Ford Escape Hybrid is the most fuel-efficient SUV on the planet with 34 mpg in the city.4 The Ford F-150 was named the 2009 Motor Trend Truck of the Year™. F-Series remains the best-selling line of trucks in America for 32 years running. Oh, by the way, the voice-activated SYNC® system5 in Ford vehicles isn’t available on Honda, Toyota or any other manufacturer. They missed the boat on that one. |

Arriving in our Showroom shortly, the Ford Transit Connect will appeal to a variety of commercial businesses, such as florists, plumbers and caterers since it is specifically designed for tight, urban environments where space is at a premium and fuel prices are high. Recently speaking of Ford and the economy, CEO Alan Mulally said, “As we come through this, we’re going to be a turbo machine on the other side.” He wasn’t joking. This summer, Ford will introduce the new 2010 Ford Taurus with the available EcoBoost™ V6 engine.6 Designed with direct injection and twin turbochargers, EcoBoost will create V8 power with V6 efficiency. How’s that for American ingenuity? Shortly, the same twin-turbo technology will be applied to 90% of our engines. Then, in 2010, Ford will start rolling out electric vehicles.
