Planning a road trip this summer?  If so, you might want to check out the 2009 Ford F-150 and 2010 Ford Mustang convertible.  They are two of the best vehicles to take along for the ride. This is according to the editors of Kelley Blue Book’s, who recognized both vehicles with a spot on their list of Top 10 Road Trip Cars of 2009.
For vacationers planning to tow a trailer – or anything else that requires a hitch – the Ford F-150 delivers, says Jack R. Nerad, executive editorial director and executive market analyst for Kelley Blue Book and kbb.com.
“With a max tow rating exceeding 11,000 pounds and an integrated tow system, this truck meets the needs of even the most hard-core towing fanatics,” he said. “Couple its rugged capabilities with a handsome exterior, refined interior and an available Super Crew Cab offering limo-like legroom, and you’re ready for the long haul.”
And for fun in the sun on summer break, Nerad says nothing beats the Ford Mustang.
“You already know that the Ford Mustang is an automotive icon that says ‘fun.’ Now add to that a convertible top and four college students on summer break, and it spells a rousing good time,” he said. “You can get attention by cruising the beach with music booming from the Ford SYNC®-equipped Shaker audio system, and if that isn’t enough, the sexy styling will definitely have the beach babes swooning.”
What are waiting for?  Summer is officially here.  Drive into your Ford Dealer and let the road games begin.
