Matthew McConaughey to Star in New 2015 Lincoln MKZ Ads

NORWALK, Ohio - After the successful "Live in Your Moment" campaign, Lincoln Motor Company decided to team up with Academy Award winner Matthew McConaughey once again to create a dynamic ad campaign for the Lincoln MKZ and Lincoln MKZ Hybrid. 

Matthew McConaughey will star in the two new 2015 Lincoln MKZ ads, which are set to debut during high-profile New Year's Day college football bowl games. The two ads were filmed in a style and tone similar to that of the Lincoln MKC "Live in Your Moment" campaign, each emphasizing the different aspects of the Lincon MKZ and MKZ Hybrid. Lincoln's new campaign signifies the next chapter in the multiyear collaboration with McConaughey, while building upon the Lincoln MKZ and MKZ Hybrid's success. These vehicles have been best-sellers in the luxury automaker's lineup for quite some time and have had increasing year-over-year sales since 2009.

The spot titled "Diner" spotlights the car's lustrous exterior, open interior, push-button start, MyLincoln Touch drive connectivity system and an available retractable panoramic roof. In the ad titled "Balance", McConaughey accentuates the idea that luxury car buyers do not need to compromise style for environmental responsibility. You can watch Matthew McConaughey as he stars in the new 2015 Lincoln MKZ ads in the video clips below ––

Ford SYNC® 3 Offers Customers Enhanced Connectivity

NORWALK, Ohio - Out with the old and in with the updated, Ford SYNC® 3 will offer customers enhanced connectivity out on the road! Ford Motor Company took 22,000 customer comments and suggestions, insights from research clinics, market surveys, and tech industry benchmarking into consideration when developing SYNC 3. The outcome? More conversational voice recognition, a smartphone-like touch screen, and easy-to-read graphics for Ford consumers.

An all-new touch screen will give Ford customers an experience similar to that of a smartphone or tablet. Along with offering quicker response to touch, voice commands, and smartphone like gestures, the new touch screen is now brighter with larger buttons and high-contrast fonts for daytime use. At night, the screen will automatically switch to a dark background to reduce eye fatigue and reflections on the windows. A "One Box Search" allows SYNC 3 users to look up points of interest or enter addresses in the same way that they would use an Internet search engine.

Ford Motor Company was the very first to provide voice controlled in-vehicle apps with help from AppLink™.  AppLink allows drivers to connect their smartphone to their vehicle and control all compatible apps using voice commands or buttons on the display screen. This technology is now faster, more responsive, and easier to use for consumers. SYNC 3's layout also allows for better integration with smartphones and a more user-friendly experience overall. 

Ford SYNC® 3 Offers Customers Enhanced Connectivity with help from its updated voice-activiated technology. Less steps are now required to carry out a command, thanks to SYNC 3's easy-to-use voice recognition. Simple commands, like "play <song, artist, album, or genre>", and vague point of interest identification like "Detroit Airport" are now easily recognized and understood by the system.

Interested in all of the awesome benefits that Ford SYNC has to offer? Check it out on the 2015 Ford Fiesta or 2015 Ford Taurus at Don Tester Ford Lincoln!

How To Get Your Vehicle Ready for Winter

NORWALK, Ohio - While we may have already gotten a small glimpse of what is to come, there is not doubt in our mind that Old Man Winter has much more in store for us! As we brace ourselves for the months ahead, we must also remember to prepare our vehicles for the snow, sleet, and slush! Do you know how to get your vehicle ready for winter? Below you will find the ultimate checklist to ensure that you and your vehicle will be ready for whatever the next few months may bring!

How To Get Your Vehicle Ready for Winter

• Equip your vehicle with fresh windshield wiper blades and refill your washer fluid. Endless amounts of ice, snow, and slush make their way onto your windshield this time of the year. By keeping your vehicle at its best you will be sure to have a clear view all winter long!

• Purchase rubber matts for your vehicle. These are a great investment because they will prevent moisture from seeping into your carpet and will help you avoid those awful white salt stains.  

• Give your lights a second glance. While this may seem like common sense, sometimes we tend to forget how important it is to make sure our lights are working properly. Now that our days are getting shorter and darker, it is crucial that our lights are in prime condition. 

• Look at the tank as half empty. This may sound a bit negative, but during this time of the year it is better to be safe than sorry! When temperatures drop below zero, low fuel tanks are more likely to freeze up. You don't want to get stuck out in the cold with an empty tank now, do you?

• Let's just say you weren't able to make it to the gas station and you find yourself stranded out in the cold. We must always prepare for these less than ideal situations, which is why we suggest keeping a Winter Safety Kit in your vehicle at all times. Your safety kit should includes things like a blanket, first-aid kit, a flashlight with extra batteries, snacks, a windshield scraper, and booster cables.

• Lastly, keep your vehicle up to date on regular routine maintenance. The technicians at the Don Tester Ford Lincoln Service Center are here to help answer all of your questions and take care of any of your vehicles needs! With our help, you vehicle will be ready to handle anything this winter!

Are you in search of the perfect vehicle no matter what the time of the year? Check out the 2014 Lincoln MKX or the 2015 Lincoln MKC! 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 (888) 857-2161, or stop by our dealership located at 2800 US Highway 250 South in Norwalk, OH.
