Who Has MyKey?

Let's talk about the 2011 Ford Mustang. The Mustang ranked number 1 out 4 Muscle Cars. It is the only vehicle in its class that is equipped with more than 300 horsepower to net over 30mpg. The Mustang V6 also has a new engine. It is a 3.7 liter V6 that creates 305 horsepower at 6,500 rpm and 280 pound-feet of torque at ,4250. That's a lot more horsepower and torque than what was in last year's model, which could probably be purchased at any used Phoenix Volkswagen or at Used Car Brandon. Even though the 2011 Chevy Camaro, like the one's found at Detroit GM, has a seven horsepower advantage, the Mustang offer's many more safety features.

The 2011 Mustang has not yet been tested, but the 2010 model received five stars in front and side impacts as well as rollover tests. The vehicle is equipped with dual-stage front airbags, front seat side airbags, all speed traction control and Advance Trac electronic stability control. This vehicle also comes with a feature that I think all cars should come with. It is called MyKey. MyKey is designed for parents to help teach their teenagers safe driving habits. MyKey does a number of things. It will limit the top speed of the vehicle to 80 mph, it will also disable the audio system when seatbelts are not being used and it will sound a persistent chime when the vehicle's speed hits 45, 55, and 65 mph. Pretty important feature I think if you are a parent with a driving teenager.

Ford also has a pretty good warranty package. They offer three year/36,000 mile basic warranty and five year/60,000 mile powertrain warranty, along with a five year/60,000 mile roadside assistance.

There were many more pros than cons that I found. US News states that this vehicle has a "powerful 305 horsepower base engine, best fuel economy in it's class, more agile than muscle car rivals and that it has an attractive, retro design on the inside and out". The only cons that were listed was that there was a slight visibility problem from the drivers seat and the back seat really wasn't made for adults. But who can beat the MyKey feature? I know I will want it in my vehicle when my kids start to drive. It's just a nice piece of mind.
