I came home today to a nice little gift from Ford! They sent me an "Instant New Car Kit". It's a car freshener with the Ford emblem on it! Under the actual freshener on the Ad paper it says "Current Vehicle getting stale? Then hang this up for temporary relief. It's a whiff of what's to come."

The Ad folds out to show all of the new cars highlighted by the Mustang and the Ford GT.

I'm assuming this is going to recent buyers of 99+ cars or people still making payments through Ford direct? Nothing big but pretty cool to get.

I didn't smell it. I left it in the bag. Did anyone smell that Saab new car "smell" ad in any of the recent magazines? I learned my lesson from smelling that!!!

On the bottom of the card it says "It's a whiff of what's to come." They must have seen the Roush pics, too. :cry:

My brother got one too... but I didnt... and he didnt even signup on the website.

He did buy a Ford Ranger though, so I think thats why. Bought a Ford previously, get an air freshener
