2015 Ford Mustang - Official Car of World's Largest Tech Show

The following was recently released on Ford Social, revealing the 2015 Ford Mustang as the "Official Car" of the January 2014 CES, the world's largest technology showcase! 


The all-new 2015 Ford Mustang is already for garnering plenty of attention, but it’s the technology in particular that will be grabbing major headlines on January 7-10, 2014, when it performs duties as the “Official Car” of the 2014 International CES.

The international event, held in Las Vegas, showcases the hottest emerging technology and innovation. In fact, Ford will use CES as an opportunity to reveal even more of the new technology features of the Mustang.

Did you know the 2015 model marks the most technologically advanced Mustang in its history? This includes driver-assist features and performance upgrades that allow you to tune the car to meet your own personal driving style, such as with available Selectable Drive Modes for controlling steering effort, throttle response, stability control and shift control.

The ponycar also comes standard or has available cutting-edge technology such as Ford SYNC®, MyFord Touch® and AppLink™ for hands-free control, voice recognition and access to smartphone apps.

Additionally, there are track apps for performance data, Blind Spot Information System for alerts when changing lanes and adaptive cruise control and collision warning with brake support, which automatically adjust vehicle speed to maintain a safe following distance, or increases sensitivity of brake assist if a collision may be imminent.

As the “Official Car” of CES, a Mustang fastback will be on display in the Grand Lobby of the Las Vegas Convention Center, and a convertible will hold center stage in the main display area of the North Hall.

December 2013 Kannapolis Teacher of the Month

Hilbish Ford is proud to announce the winner of the Hilbish Ford Outstanding Teacher of the Month Award for December.

Melissa Little teaches 4th grade at Shady Brook Elementary School, a part of the Kannapolis City School System. Parents and students both recognize Melissa’s ability to show students how to have fun while learning. She teaches her students how to look at their work in a way they can understand. One student said Mrs. Little has taught her the importance of being respectful, responsible, safe and a learner.

The students in her class leave school with a smile and look forward to returning the next day. A parent nomination said that Melissa “says her students are gifts and I believe she means every word. She once told my son that she was his school mom and would keep him safe. If you are a mom you know just how much that means. I trust her with one of the biggest pieces of my heart.”

We are extremely proud that Melissa is part of our Kannapolis City Schools’ family, and we are delighted that Tim Vaughn, General Manager at Hilbish Ford, is here to present her with the Hilbish Ford Teacher of the Month Award.  Congratulations!
