Limited Edition "Mustang Unleashed" T-Shirt Line Revealed

NORWALK, Ohio - Five fashion innovators and Ford Motor Company are now shining light on the 50th Mustang Anniversary in a different way. The limited edition "Mustang Unleashed" t-shirt line has been revealed; a one-of-a-kind collection with 15 different t-shirt designs representing the passion, freedom, power and adventure behind the Ford Mustang. 

"Mustang Unleashed" is the ultimate tribute to recognize five decades of the Mustang's influence on pop culture. Each designer brought elements of their personal style and characteristics of the Ford Mustang together to create three different t-shirts for the collection. While freedom, adventure, power and passion all contributed to the designer's inspiration, each of their interpretations were vastly different:

Paula Cadematori: Cadematori uses design as a tool for expression, emotion and elegance. Her t-shirts represented freedom, power and new experiences through color, geometry and glamour.

Anna Sui: This Detroit native effortlessly combines vintage style with modern trends. Through her designs she embodied freedom, rock 'n' roll and the process of evolving while remaining true to your identity, just as the Ford Mustang has for the last 50 years.

Pamela Love: Jewelry designer Pamela Love saw the Mustang's infamous horse icon as a symbol of power, strength and freedom. With her designs, she wanted to represent the idea of moving forward and leaving the past behind you.

CO|TE, Tomaso Anfossi & Francesco Ferrari: Contemporary meets quality and tradition with this Italian brand's design. CO|TE wanted to show how the Mustang could evolve and still hold onto its original qualities and traditions.

Rogan, Rogan Gregory & Scott Mackinlay-Hahn: Rogan's inspiration stems from the raw American heritage found within the Mustang. Although the Mustang has adapted to modern trends over the years, it has still maintained its integrity.

Check out the limited edition "Mustang Unleashed" t-shirt line look book here. The entire collection is made by Loomstate in the United States, using 100 percent organic cotton. Pre-orders can be made at www.gilt.com/unleashed starting TODAY, August 26th. Each t-shirt retails for $39.

Back-to-School Lunch Box Ideas

NORWALK, Ohio - Happy First Week of School! Time to get back into the swing of things: after-school practices, homework and of course, packing lunches. It seems that about a month into the new school year, parents tend to run out of healthy-lunch ideas for the kids. This year, we have you covered! Check out these creative, and might we add delicious, Back to School Lunch Box Ideas. 

Easy DIY Pizza Kit: Avoid the overly processed, pre-made Pizza Kit lunches and create one on your own! Bake crescent roll dough sheets the night before and send them for lunch with some pizza sauce, cheese and the other toppings your child prefers! 

Homemade Uncrustables:  Kids tend to LOVE the pre-made Uncrustable sandwiches, but only receiving four in a box for the amount you pay? No thank you! Make your own Uncrustables with your favorite nut butter and jam, then freeze them. No worries, they will be thaw by lunchtime.

No Bake Honey Nut Cheerio Bars: These fast and easy bars are not only most cost effective than store-bought bars, but they are healthier too! With some cereal, dried fruit and chocolate covered sunflower seeds (or whatever you have on hand) you can create a tasty, sweet-tooth satisfying lunchbox treat!

15-Minute Pizza Muffins: Prepping lunch the night before is a HUGE time saver! These Pizza Muffins are so easy and will be done by the time you finish the after-dinner dishes. Toss a few in the lunchbox and pair with your child's favorite dipping sauce!

Turkey, Ham & Cheddar Sandwich Skewers:  Regular old sandwiches can get boring, so spice it up skewer-style! Using a cookie cutter, cut out slices of bread, turkey, ham and cheese and assemble into a sandwich before placing on the skewer. We suggest cutting off the sharp end to avoiding any poking!

Frozen Sponge Ice Pack: This one is not for eating, but it is too good of a tip to not tell you about! Freeze a wet sponge inside of a sandwich bag and place in your child's lunchbox in the morning. This is a super cheap way to keep their food cool and will avoid all of the leaking the comes with the typical blue coolers.

Why not kick off the new school year with a brand-new Ford or Lincoln vehicle from Don Tester Ford Lincoln?

Ford Begins Testing on All-New Right-Hand-Drive Mustang

NORWALK, Ohio - For the very first time, Ford has developed a Ford Mustang with right-hand-drive configuration, allowing for the iconic pony car to be exported to more than 25 right-hand-drive markets around the globe including the United Kingdom, Australia and South Africa. 

Ford is beginning the testing on the all-new right-hand-drive Mustang in preparation for the pony car's entry into the global market within the next few months. Even though the United States still remains the largest market for the Mustang, having roughly 9.2 million in sales since the pony car's 1964 debut, there has been an impressive 161,000 Mustangs sold outside of North America during that time. Now that the market will be adding a right-hand-drive Mustang, the all-new pony car will be able to reach customers in more than 110 countries next year.

Everything Sounds Better Inside the 2015 Ford Mustang

NORWALK, Ohio - We know how much Mustang drivers are looking forward to hearing the rumble and grumble of the all-new pony car's V8 engine. But, what about those times when all you want to do is cruise around listening to your favorite song on full blast? Don't worry, the 2015 Ford Mustang's audio system has you covered.

Everything sounds better inside of the 2015 Ford Mustang; Ford is certain of it. The all-new pony car has a solid foundation, which not only helps to extract maximum performance out of the tries and suspension, but allows for the audio system to provide a clear-cut sound. Now 28 percent more resistant to twisting than previous models, the 2015 Ford Mustang contains improved aerodynamics which help to significantly reduce noise. After spending much time in their new acoustics lab, Ford Motor Company has finely tuned each of the Mustang's three audio systems to improve clarity throughout various frequency ranges, music genres and driving conditions.

Whether you choose the baseline, premium or top-end Shaker Pro audio system, any song you play will sound better inside of the 2015 Ford Mustang. The baseline system features a six-speaker configuration with two different high-frequency tweeters mounted into the A-pillars. This gives both the driver and front passenger a more direct sound. As for the premium audio system, it has an additional front center speaker mounted on the instrument panel for refined speech and clarity. The Shaker Pro has a pair of coaxial tweeter/woofers in the rear as well as a trunk-mounted subwoofer for maximum bass. Don't worry, the additional subwoofer still allows for plenty of trunk space!

We bet you can't wait to play your favorite song in what Ford refers to as the "best-sounding Mustang ever".  If you want to learn more about the Ford Mustang, visit us at Don Tester Ford Lincoln! We make the process of purchasing your car comfortable, exciting, and above all, honest. To contact one of our friendly and reputable team members call (800) 978-6317 or stop by our dealership located at 2800 US Highway 250 South in Norwalk, OH.
