Well, at least Ford got one thing right with the 2010 Mustang even if the HP wasn't up to the expectations of the Mustang Loyalists. The new
"SOS" Post Crash Alert System (
Activates when Airbags deploy, Emergency flashers turn on, Engages horn and Doors unlock for quick exiting) ... should come in very handy when the 315 HP Mustang GT owner looks on in complete shock
while a 422 HP Camaro SS
owner easily cruises by distracting the Mustang owner from paying attention to the vehicle on the road ahead of them ... which it now rear ends.
Appearently, there was a third feature to the "SOS" system along with the Flashing lights and Horns, but Ford thought that it would make the accident a little to obvious. It was a little WHITE FLAG which would be deploy up by the power antenna indicating that the Mustang had indeed surrendered!
In all seriousness.... the safety features on all of todays new cars are designed for one purpose only. That is to protect the driver and thier passengers from serious and possible life threatening injuries. Please keep in mind that there is
NO EXCUSE for drinking and driving over this holiday season. If you're planning on going out for New Years Eve, please designate a non-drinker for the ride home or better yet... get a Taxi!
Happy New Year to ALL !
