On an annual basis in Las Vegas, hundreds of thousands from across the globe flock to the the Consumer Electronic Show (CES) trade show to see the latest and greatest in consumer electronics and consumer technology. You might imagine the usual suspects in attendance but more than ever, automakers and auto-related companies are making their presence known.

Ford, as well as other major automakers and hundreds of auto industry players, attended the event to demonstrate and discuss their latest products. The 2017 show saw the largest auto presence ever. Steve Koenig, senior director of market research for the Consumer Technology Association, which organizes the CES show shared, “We’ve witnessed a rising tide of the suppliers and vehicle OEMs, and now big tech companies. It has definitely become the go-to event globally for vehicle tech … and it continues to grow.”

At the show, #Ford debuted its second-generation of autonomous Ford Fusions. Having recently completed 20 upgraded Ford Fusion Hybrid autonomous development vehicles, Ford plans to add 60 more by the end of 2017. Chris Brewer, Ford’s chief engineer of autonomous-vehicle development commented, “It’s been three years since we hit the streets with our first Fusion Hybrid autonomous research vehicle, and this latest version takes everything we learned and builds on it.”

Safety features are the unsung hero in your car or truck. #Ford has put lots of effort into keeping you safe should the unthinkable happen. For your review, here are a few highlights of safety features Ford offers.

Air Bags are everywhere! Front, side, rear and available rear passenger knee airbags deploy on collision to keep you from contact with hard surfaces, like the windshield, in milliseconds.

Electronic Stability Control keeps you out of harm’s way if you’ve had to swerve to avoid an obstacle. It measures steering wheel angle, traction and body roll by applying braking adjustments and wheel power to keep all wheels firmly on the road and the body from sliding.

Forward Collision Warning gives you a heads up to warn you that a collision is possible. As part of the adaptive cruise control system, with brake support, your brakes will pre-charge should you not react in time to increase their sensitivity.

Four Wheel ABS avoids your wheels from locking up to keep you from skidding and losing control. Wheels continue rotating which means the vehicle will respond to your steering command to keep you in control.

The Lane Keeping System monitors your position relative to road markers if you veer out of your lane. The system will vibrate the steering wheel to alert you that you’ve done so.

BLIS with Cross Traffic Alert uses radar to detect a vehicle present in your blind-spot and sends you an alert in your side mirror so you won’t change lanes or veer into an unseen oncoming vehicle.

As a top Ford dealership NY in Brewster NY, at #BrewsterFord, www.brewsterford.com, we will always stand by you and our Ford products. Come join our family of satisfied customers. Our mission is to keep you happy and safe!

Although 2017 has just begun, #Ford is looking ahead to 2020 to ensure customer satisfaction, marketplace relevance and continued profits. To succeed, thought and planning begins now. Here are a few plans already in motion at Ford.

In the U.S., Ford dominates the truck market. The best selling F-150 pickup can take credit for much of this so Ford will continue to add trucks and vans to its lineup. Globally, over the next few years, they intend to produce more SUVs and crossovers adding four new utility models to its global portfolio by 2020.

Performance models sell! Ford’s performance vehicles are successful so they plan to add 12 new performance models by the year 2020. Ford plans to electrify even more going forward with 13 new electrified models planned for introduction by 2020.

A new strategy for cars is on the drawing board at Ford. Over the years, consumers have waned in their desire to purchase a car choosing more often to buy an SUV or truck. Seeing the trend, Ford’s car division will be getting a major overhaul to capitalize on the trend while adjusting to consumer demand.

Too much of a good thing isn’t always best for business. Ford will be scaling back and right sizing their “bells and whistles” options. In addition, they will be shifting small car production to Mexico. These changes will allow them to retool their car-manufacturing facilities in the U.S. to meet the consumer’s continued appetite for utility vehicles and trucks. Doing so will deliver greater profit potential.

In 2017, come see us at #BrewsterFord, www.brewsterford.com, in Brewster NY, and let us help you find the perfect Ford vehicle for you. Let our stellar sales staff put you in a new ride.

We love our Fords in the USA and so does the rest of the world. That global love is great for Ford stock and the economy. Europe is one of the most important markets for Ford where sales are on on the move.

In 2016, European #Ford sales accounted for about 19% of total sales globally. That percentage equates to the sale of 1.3 million vehicles. This strong growth shows no sign of slowing in 2017 and beyond. This projected substantial and sustainable growth signals Europe’s continued contribution to Ford’s increased revenue.

Demographics coupled with an upward trend in motorization in Europe has inspired Ford to introduce more SUVs, hatchbacks and performance cars in the region. These key growth segments in which Ford has focused should ensure their ongoing stronghold on their 8% market share in Europe. Based on the growth of the European market paired with Ford’s consistent market share, revenue could rise to $40 billion in 2021.

Closer to home in Brewster NY, at #Brewster Ford, www.brewsterford.com, our consistency in sales, service and customer satisfaction has gotten us attention over the years.

Eight years ago, Ford introduced Sync. In 2008 it was revolutionary. You could push a button and ask it to call anyone on your contact list or tell it to play a specific artist or album stored on your phone. Amazing right?

Fast forward to today and #Sync3, as it is now known, is referred to as an infotainment system that combines navigation, stereo, phone and a graphical app platform called AppLink. All of this in a clean interface with fast response.

Ford maintains a consistent layout in Sync 3 to minimize driver distraction. As an example, whether listening to FM or satellite radio, preset buttons were in the same place on the screen. although the satellite radio screen adds a few buttons for additional features.

The color scheme of light blue-on-blueof Sync 3 complements the clean and simple graphic. It makes information easy to read in all types of lighting conditions. To ensure function, sliders and buttons can be found throughout the interface. It’s oh-so-easy to use and allows the driver to navigate the system safely while driving.

Although navigation is part of Sync 3’s repertoire, some may prefer their smartphone’s navigation. No problem, as Sync 3 supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Just plug either an iPhone 5 or later model, with updated iOS, or an Android phone running Android 5.0 or later, into the car’s USB port. and Sync 3 gives way to Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.

At #BrewsterFord in Brewster NY, www.brewsterford.com, we have an incredible line up of new and used cars and trucks. Let us help you find a Ford vehicle with all of the features and tech your heart desires.

The Ford F-SERIES lineup of trucks are preferred by America’s agriculture and livestock industries with 40 percent of farmworkers driving the #F-150 and 36 percent using Super Duty trucks to get the job done!

Starting in 1948, Ford Motor Company began to sponsor the FFA. Since 1997, Ford has committed $9.2 million to the organization with Built Ford Tough scholarships for tomorrow’s farmers.

Building upon this working relationship, Ford collaborated with the National Future Farmers of America (FFA) Organization and Discovery Education to give 54,000 students around the United States an inside look at how the company designs and engineers trucks to meet future needs of America’s future farmers and agricultural leaders.

The 45-minute virtual field trip was streamed live to more than 1,000 classrooms allowing students to meet Ford truck designers, program engineers and product durability engineers. Throughout the session, students had the ability to email and tweet questions live to speakers.

Doug Scott, Ford truck group marketing manager, shared, “We were excited to undertake this new opportunity with FFA and Discovery Education. What better way to demonstrate the power and capability of F-Series trucks and the customer leadership Ford owns, than through the hands and eyes of our future toughest employees and customers.”

Today’s farmers enjoy more fuel efficient comfortable and connected #F-Series trucks. With features like like Trailer Reverse Guidance, adaptive steering and BLIS with trailer tow technology, their job just got easier.

As the preferred Ford dealership NY, #BrewsterFord in Brewster NY, www.brewsterford.com, we have a truck to meet your every need. Come take a test drive today!

The big chill of 2013-14 was a bone-numbing, snowfall laden event for the Northeast that added a new word to our vocabulary: Polar vortex. Following this historical weather event, customers told Ford they wanted cold weather features available on their vehicles. Ford listened.

They started by forming the Ford extreme climate team that met with market-specific customers not only in North America but around the globe to better understand what drivers in harsh weather conditions need and expect.

Ford’s extreme climate team hosted a customer clinic in Edmonton, Alberta, to hear what drivers had to say about winter driving challenges they faced. Nicole Mazur, product development quality supervisor for Ford Canada and export markets shared their findings saying, “What our customers in Canada told us is simple – heat everything! They wanted better access to some of the cold weather features Ford was already offering on its higher-series vehicles.”

Mazur and Melissa DeLuka, her job share partner, spearheaded North American input into Ford’s extreme climate team saying “Sometimes, it’s about comfort, but other times it’s more than that. What much of the United States experienced with the polar vortex is what northern Canada gets every year.”

Customer feedback indicated that drivers wanted a heated steering wheel, heated mirrors, seats and windshield wiper de-icer as standard equipment. From there, #Ford got to work to incorporate winter features into their cars and trucks to satisfy their customers. One example is SYNC Connect on the 2017 Ford Escape that provides drivers with an even better remote start and vehicle pre-conditioning capabilities.

At #BrewsterFord, www.brewsterford,com, we know it’s cold in Brewster NY. Let us show you a Ford vehicle that will get you to your final destination in style safely and with a warm glow! Come see us.
