F-150: The Edmunds.com 2009 Consumers' Top Rated Large Truck

The redesigned Ford F-150 took top honors in the full-size truck category, winning an Edmunds.com Consumers' Top Rated Award for 2009.

Improved fuel economy, additional power, a comfortable ride, better front-seat comfort and an upscale interior helped impress owners. Compared to the competition, the F-150 offers the most capability in its class, whether it's for work or play. That's just one of the many reasons that's helped make the F-150 the best-selling vehicle in the country for 27 years in a row.

SYNC Technolgy 101 - part 3 of 3

We've reached the final part of our 3 part mini-course on Microsoft's game-breaking SYNC technology. Enjoy the 3rd and closing chapter of this mini-course!

SYNC's Functionality and Features:

PERSONALIZATION: SYNC with your personal preferences to tell your car what you like.

Instant voice recognition
SYNC's advanced voice recognition technology means when you're ready to use your phone or digital music player, just speak simple voice commands. Don't you wish everyone in your life was this responsive?

Ringtone Support
Do you hear your favorite pop song every time your phone rings? For supported phones, SYNC will recognize and play it. And if you've configured unique ringtones to identify specific callers, SYNC will automatically play those, too.

Automatic Phonebook Transfer
Can you imagine having to re-enter every name and number in your contact list to make it work with your vehicle? Yikes! Neither can we. That's why we designed SYNC to transfer all the names and numbers in your mobile phone book automatically.

Multilingual Intelligence
SYNC is a worldly piece of technology, fluent in English, French and Spanish. So start talking. SYNC's listening.

Multiple phone support
Several family members sharing the same vehicle? No problem. Up to 12 different phones can be paired with the system. Should more than one paired phone be present, SYNC will first attempt to connect to the primary phone but can easily switch to another phone if desired.

New SYNC Features for 2009:
911 Assist
You can be directly connected to a 911 Operator in the event of a crash or airbag deployment, or on some vehicles, if the emergency fuel pump shut-off mechanism is triggered. A pre-recorded message can be delivered to the operator if you are unable to speak, and occupants can communicate with the 911 Operator hands-free.

Vehicle Health Report
Say 'Vehicle Health Report' and you can: 1) Access the vehicle diagnostics report when you register online at www.syncmyride.com, and also schedule service appointments and get maintenance reminders once you are registered.

New SYNC Features for 2010:
Available on most 2010 models, SYNC now includes traffic, directions, and information, letting you access traffic reports, turn-by-turn driving directions, business listings, sports scores, weather forecasts and news - all with simple voice commands.
