Ford has always been committed to provide futuristic technologies that add to the convenience of its customers, to make their journey in their new Ford models an enjoyable one. McRee Ford, the leading Ford dealer in Houston, Galveston, and Dickinson Texas, is pleased to inform you that Ford has added two new features to its ever-growing list of collection of Ford convenience features and technology. Ford iTunes Tagging and HD Radio technology that produces crystal clear sound will be launched in 2010 on select Ford vehicles.

Get ready for a leisurely drive in your favorite Ford models with melodious soundtracks in the background. Combined with the FORD SYNC system, iTunes Tagging will provide you with the ability to capture a song you hear on the HD Radio receiver for later purchase. With a simple push of the “TAG” button on the radio display, the song information will be stored in the radio’s memory. Ford is the first auto manufacturer to offer HD Radio technology with iTunes Tagging capability. The HD Radio technology captures free digital radio broadcasts, eliminates static, fadeout and other problems associated with conventional analog radio signals; the result is FM audio that’s comparable to near-CD quality and AM audio that sounds like today’s FM broadcasts.

The dealer also offers an in-depth review of new Ford cars and the online facility to schedule a test drive of the Ford model of your choice gives you a totally new pre-buying experience.

SYNC is a wireless, voice-operated computer system with which a user can use digital media players such as Apple iPods, Microsoft Zunes and many other kinds of MP3 Players, as well as Bluetooth-enabled mobile phones. All of which can be controlled via voice command.

With this software platform, a user can make calls or play music in the car by using only voice commands. The same can also be performed using the steering wheel. A user can also search for a particular song on the music system by mentioning any word in it. Similarly, one can also use only the name of the contact person to make a call or send a text message.

Microsoft has developed this technology for Ford. This feature is factory-installed and voice commands can be given in English, French or Spanish.

Ford SYNC allows drivers to bring nearly any mobile phone or digital media player into their vehicle and operate them using voice commands, the vehicle steering wheel control panel, or radio controls.
Ford SYNC allows various portable digital music players (i.e., the iPod and Zune) and Bluetooth-enabled mobile phones to be operated with simple voice commands. SYNC can even receive text messages and read them aloud using a digitized female voice Samantha.
