When you think about a Ford Mustang, you most likely think of things like speed, power, and performance, but fuel economy is probably not one of the first things you consider. The Ford Mustang Mach-E eliminates fuel, and you can now have the Mustang’s performance prowess in an electric vehicle (EV). In addition, the Mustang Mach-E is comprised of cutting-edge automotive technology that is sure to impress. Let’s explore the best features of the Mustang Mach-E.
Exterior Design

Ford engineers spent a little extra time on the exterior design of the Mustang Mach-E and ensured that the vehicle has all the flare you have come to expect from a Mustang. This electric sports car implements exterior details such as distinctive curves, sleek lines, and an aggressive performance stance. On top of these visual cues, you will find that the Mustang Mach-E has a mock front grille (available with the GT Model), custom hood design, authentic Mustang badging, and Mustang taillights. Other available design features include a glass roof, innovative door handles, and custom Mustang wheels.
Eco-Friendly
Did you ever imagine that you would hear the term eco-friendly included in a sentence with Ford Mustang? Maybe not, but they go hand-in-hand when describing how the Mustang Mach-E is built to be eco-friendly. The Mustang Mach-E won Cars.com’s 2021 Eco-Friendly Car of the Year award.
The Mustang Mach-E won this prestigious award from Cars.com by meeting the following criteria:

Body style.
Range.
Efficiency.
Charging capacity.
Design.
Nationwide availability.

Power and Performance
Power and performance may not be the first terms you consider when thinking about an EV, but the Mustang Mach-E begs to differ. The Mustang Mach-E has two available batteries, the standard range (68 kWh) and the extended range (88 kWh), depending on the trim level you choose. The Mustang Mach-E is also available with either 266, 290, 346, or 480 horsepower and 317, 428, or 600 pound-feet of torque. These numbers range between four trim levels and available options, with the GT trim level having the most power and torque.
The Mustang Mach-E is available in either rear-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive and has responsive handling inspired by the iconic Ford Mustang GT. Rating an EV’s power is pretty straightforward, but rating its performance is something of an enigma. The Mustang Mach-E boasts a top 0-60 mph time of only 3.5 seconds in the GT Performance Edition trim level, but where the Mustang Mach-E shines is in fuel economy or lack thereof, depending on your perspective.
Since the Mustang Mach-E is an EV and uses no fuel, its performance is also measured by its total driving range. The Mustang Mach-E’s electric driving range is rated from 211 miles to 305 miles, depending on the trim level and configuration. The California Route 1 trim level offers the most range, and the GT trim level tops out at 270 miles. Ultimately, you will have to pick and choose from many options to strike a balance between the efficiency and performance you are looking to achieve when purchasing the Mustang Mach-E.
Spacious Interior
Did someone say spacious interior? This is typically not even considered when purchasing a Mustang, but the Mustang Mach-E is classified as a small SUV and provides ample interior room, making it appealing for families. The Mustang Mach-E can seat up to five passengers with room for cargo as well.
Behind the rear seats, you will find a whopping 29.7 cubic feet of space for your stuff. This number increases to 59.7 cubic feet with the rear seats folded flat. This amount of cargo space is especially impressive for an EV capable of reaching 0-60 mph in only 3.5 seconds.
High-Tech Features
Now we can get to the heart of what makes the Mustang Mach-E special, and that’s all of its available high-tech features:
Sync 4A Technology: Sync 4A is the latest version of Ford’s Sync system. This intelligent and adaptive system learns the driver’s personal preferences over time and can store up to three driver profiles and one guest profile. In addition, Sync 4A is coupled with an available 15.5-inch touch screen interface. This interface is mounted in portrait position in the center of the dash and controls all the Mustang Mach-E’s primary functions.
Standard infotainment features: With many standard infotainment features such as Sirius XM, a Wi-Fi hotspot, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto, the Mustang Mach-E offers endless entertainment for all passengers.
Bang & Olufsen: One of the world’s premier audio companies, Bang & Olufsen offers some of the best-sounding automotive sound systems available today. The available Bang & Olufsen audio system in the Mustang Mach-E elicits feelings of being in a concert hall and has a state-of-the-art subwoofer. This subwoofer provides accurate bass at low or high volume and takes up 80% less space than regular subwoofers.
E-Latch System: One thing you may question about the Mustang Mach-E is where to find its door handles. The answer is, there are no door handles, and this is where the E-Latch system comes into play. This system is an electronically controlled door-latch system with two innovative ways for consumers to open the Mustang Mach-E’s doors.
One is to use the key fob, but you can use your smartphone as well. When the Mustang Mach-E detects one of these two, you can simply push the button on any of the four doors to open it slightly. Then, you can use the front door pull handles or the rear grab pad inside the door. There’s no need to worry about having pinched fingers, as the doors will only close once they have been opened all the way after the E-Latch system has been activated.
Advanced Interior Air Filtration: Ford’s micronAir proTect filter helps keep the interior of the Mustang Mach-E clean and clear. This filter traps particles that are so small they are invisible to the human eye. This advanced air filtration process aims to offer additional protection against harmful pollution, allergens, and more.
The Ford Mustang Mach-E is a remarkable EV that is affordable, fun to drive, convenient, and loaded with available high-tech features. If you are in search of an EV with style and performance at its heart, the Mustang Mach-E will not disappoint. For more information and to take the Mustang Mach-E for a test drive, visit Brewster Ford today.

The Westchester County Department of Parks, Recreation, and Conservation owns and operates this fun spot in nearby Katonah.
The original owners, the Hopkins family, founded this 777-acre “Gentleman’s Farm” in 1880. The buildings and grounds are open to the public 362 days of the year from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily. At Muscoot Farm, there are tons to see and do in a family-friendly atmosphere. You can:

Located just a mile from Brewster Hill, this local oasis offers a peaceful vibe that’s a welcome respite from city life.
Whether you’re casting bait or fly fishing, there’s a good chance you’ll land a fish here. So grab the kids, pack your favorite rod and reel in your new F-150, and get out there.

Hey Brewster locals! Doesn’t it always seem like there’s a holiday just around the corner? At Brewster Ford, we know how important it is to find the perfect pastries, pies, and bread when you’re celebrating with loved ones. We can help! We have a few self-proclaimed bread and pastry connoisseurs in our staff that helped us put together this list of the top six bakeries in Brewster and the surrounding area.
And just to be 100 percent sure, we’ve taken to scanning dozens of reviews to make sure we’re giving you the best tips possible when searching for the sweet or savory baked goods of your dreams just in time for your holiday celebration!
Top Bakeries in Brewster Specializing in Bagels
Image via Pexels by Lucie Liz
Our sources tell us that the Empire Bagels shop was originally located in the Bronx, and now there are two locations: one in Brewster and one in Carmel. There are several reviews online claiming Empire Bagels is the best in the area. Other than bagels, they have an extensive menu specializing in sandwiches. Definitely try the breakfast sandwiches; we recommend the Country Style, made with 3 eggs, bacon, cheddar, onions, and peppers. If you’re not feeling breakfast or you’re visiting them closer to lunch, try the Grilled Chicken Caesar.
Find Empire Bagels located just a couple of miles away from our dealership in Brewster at 1515 NY-22, on the first floor of the Lakeview Shopping Center. Also, if you’re in a rush, try to call Empire Bagels ahead, since we hear they can get busy with lines out the door! One reviewer on Google mentioned her New Yorker family enjoys Empire Bagels more than any bagel shop in New York City. Now that’s saying something! Visit the Empire Bagels website for more details about their menu, and then call 845-302-2757.
Another popular with Brewster locals and visitors is The Bagel Shop on 851 NY-22. Reviewers suggest you visit this bakery early, as they can run out of most types of bagels, even on weekdays! Customers love the small-town feel of the shop, where you can enjoy coffee, breakfast or lunch, and a nice chat with an extremely friendly owner. Check out the menu on the website and call ahead at 845-363-1647.
Top Bakeries In and Around Brewster Specializing in Sweet Treats

We heard the peach cake at the Brewster Pastry is something folks in the area look forward to every season. If you have a sweet tooth or you are looking for a special dessert for a holiday party, we think you can’t go wrong with this shop. The chef specializes in European and French style cookies, specialty cakes, and mini pastries. They also offer bagels and other breads. Check out the Brewster Pastry website to see photos of their beautiful pies, tarts, and pastries. The shop is located at 1620 Route 22, and you can call ahead at 845-278-2555.
We love the story behind the Sunflour Bakery, which operates out of a renovated 2,000 square-foot location that was previously a church and before that, many other business types. But what we love most about the story is how much the Carlson family has worked together to build this business, starting from the kids helping their mom out in her first bakery job. If you want to know more about the Carlson family, check out this article the Pawling Record published about them.
Today, Sunflour specializes in making custom cakes for customers. At the shop, they also offer coffee that they roast in house, as well as sweet or savory treats. Find Sunflour Bakery at 5 Broad Street in Pawling. They currently have limited hours between Wednesday and Sunday, so we recommend you check their website before visiting or call ahead at 845-289-0981.
The Best Bread Near Brewster

The Baker’s Wife is a prime contender for the best bread in the Brewster area, according to our in-house and external sources. This is a micro bakery and mill that specializes in small-batch, leavened, handmade bread and features fresh-milled regional flour in all recipes. Baker Martin Wilson’s most popular breads are jalapeño cheddar and chocolate cherry. He also creates homemade pretzels, croissants, sourdough, and other artisanal loaves and baguettes. Some reviewers describe the texture of the loaves as having the perfect amount of crunch on the crust, with a perfectly soft center.
The Baker’s Wife is located in Pawling, New York. However, there is no dedicated storefront, and we recommend ordering through their partner, the Sunflower Bakery (mentioned in the previous section) or following The Baker’s Wife on Facebook to find out where Martin will feature his products next.
LMNOP Bakery is also a micro bakery specializing in bread. Their website describes the ordering and pick up information, stating that the menu tends to consist of a staple sourdough and two or three specialty loaves. You are generally able to choose between a round or sandwich-style loaf, though some are only available in one of the two options. Finally, you are able to choose your pick-up day (Wednesdays through Saturdays only) and date. The pick-up location is at Mast Market, 92 S Moger Ave., Mt Kisco, NY, between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m.
LMNOP is baking out of the Mast Market currently, but baker Anne Mayhew is working on eventually opening up a storefront location in Katonah. You can find more information on the LMNOP website, and we were happy to learn from reviewing the Facebook page that as of September, Anne is trialing outdoor wood-fired pizza workshops. She also offers workshops for learning introductory and advanced sourdough techniques, as well as how to make sourdough pretzels!
There you have it! Whether you’re looking for a bagel, a delicious sweet treat, or nice bread for your next holiday dinner, we’ve got you covered in this top bakeries in Brewster feature. Did we cover all your favorites? We would love to hear what you think. Please contact us today.

Ruggedly handsome, always willing to do the heavy lifting and reliable, (no, not the perfect man), the Ford pickup truck has been and always will be faithful and loyal. Let’s reminisce a bit about this Ford Tough co-worker.

Long before pickup trucks became leather-lined supersized luxurious transport, they were humble and simple, happy to stay in the background of life. They were purposeful, hard working companions that did the work of transporting, hauling, towing and delivering like the horses they replaced.

Today. some of the most coveted vintage trucks are the 1953–56 Ford F-100s. These trucks are known as #Effies. They were introduced for Ford’s golden anniversary in 1953. What was groundbreaking about these F-100s was not their hauling prowess but how they hauled people. Ford invested millions to create what they called a “driverized” cab which was unique for the time. They were the first trucks designed with ergonomics in mind.

Today, the Ford F-series of trucks is the best selling in America. They still do the work but they do so with more style and power than ever. They can operate confidently and comfortably at highway speed with reassuring brakes and amazingly competent handling. They are loaded with technology to keep you safe, entertained and on track. And of course, more than ever, sport a comfortable, livable interior.

If you are looking for a Ford vehicle in Brewster NY, look no further. At #BrewsterFord, www.brewsterford.com, we have it all. Our informed and service oriented sales staff can assist you with your new or pre-owned car or truck selection. Stop by and take a test drive.

After a certain age, who doesn’t consider a nip or tuck here or there.  It looks like Ford has been thinking that way and now plans to give the Mustang a facelift.  In 2018, the Mustang will show off its new look.  Mark your calendar for fall 2017 to come by Brewster Ford to see one.
 
Ford marketing manager Mark Schaller stated, “Fast, fun and affordable is in the Mustang’s DNA. This is one of the biggest midcycle changes ever for the Mustang.”  You may wonder what midcycle change means?  By definition, in the eyes of the auto industry, a midcycle change or update to a vehicle means the changes were made midway between its introduction and the arrival of an all new model.
 
The 2018 Mustang will feature a lower nose, a new 10-speed automatic transmission and new LED lights.  From the windshield forward, even the sheet metal used in the Mustang will be new.  Look for new fenders and a lower hood with new vents. Both the front and rear bumpers will be new. To resemble the chevron front signature lights, the tri-bar taillights will be reshaped.
 
Thanks to the addition of port fuel injection to complement the direct injection already in Mustangs, the Mustang GT’s 5-liter V-8 will have more power.  The same technology will increase torque in the 2.3-liter turbo four-cylinder engine.
 
The 2018 Mustang interior will also be in on the facelift.  The center console will get a new vinyl wrapping, customizable display for gauges, a metal start button and an optional heated steering wheel.

Look out Brewster NY! Here comes the all new 2018 Mustang!  At #BrewsterFord, we are getting excited about showing you one.  Until then, come by and let us show you a Ford vehicle.  We have a great selection. Or visit us online at www.brewsterford.com.

Sometimes the word sporty and secure don’t go hand in hand.  With the 2017 Ford Focus, you get the whole enchilada.  With a comfortable ride, sporty handling and a high-tech interior, the Focus is a smart choice.  And we have plenty to see at Brewster Ford.
 
The Focus is a standout in its class.  On the market for a number of years, Ford has always kept it fresh and innovative.  Mature yet still very relevant and exciting to drive.  A great example is the Focus’ Sync3 infotainment touchscreen interface. It’s packed with features, including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration. Drive the Focus and you will be impressed.  It takes turns like a champ while remaining calm and quiet as you cruise down the highway.
 
Ford Focus Sedan or Hatchback?
Keeping things real and practical is no problem with the Focus.  It has an excellent 31 mpg combined (27 city/39 highway) with the automatic transmission. And if you need to haul cargo in addition to your crew, then the Ford Focus Hatchback is the perfect choice.  The sedan is a comfortable ride that will seat four adults just fine. The cabin is quiet, thanks to Ford’s use of good-quality materials that absorb road noise.
 
The Focus is a very safe vehicle.  It has earned an overall rating of five stars (out of a possible five), for both total front-impact protection and total side-impact protection. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety gave the 2017 Ford Focus a top score of Good in its moderate-overlap front-impact, side-impact and roof strength tests. The Ford Sync system has an emergency crash notification feature that will automatically dial 911 when paired with a compatible cellphone.

Now that you are excited to test drive a #2017FordFocus, make plans to come see us at #BrewsterFord.  We have a great selection from which to select.

Just because it’s winter time, there is no need to hide your head under the covers until Spring.  If you are lucky enough to live in the Brewster NY area, there are plenty of places to enjoy when it’s cold outside. At #BrewsterFord, we are excited about being a part of the Brewster community.  Here are some highlights of what our area offers.
 
Local landmarks are plentiful in our area.  Have you ever been to Putnam County’s Tilly Foster Farm?  If not, load up the kids and make your way there.  It’s a great spot to hike, fish, see farm animals and even cross-country ski.  If you love horses, you will definitely want to explore Pleasant View Farm located in the town of Southeast, New York, on the border of Westchester and Putnam counties.  It’s about an hour’s drive north of Manhattan. The farm is primarily devoted to horse boarding, care and training. It also has a small livestock operation and a mushroom farm. Both of these stops are beautiful especially when they are blanketed in snow.
 
If a bite to eat and brew is more your style, you must check out the Bull and Barrel where they have a passion for all things craft. They would tell you they are part brewer, part forager and part rabble rouser. This restaurant and brewery is situated near the base of the East Branch Reservoir. Looking for a great place for breakfast or lunch?  The Eveready Diner in Brewster is a classic. Plug 90 Independence Way into your SYNC3 navigation system in your Ford vehicle and let it take you there.
