TMS Live from the Detroit Auto Show!
Because I can't get enough of the bitter coldness rolling through the South this week, and despite the fact that almost everyone I know is in or on their way to Pasadena, California, I leave for Detroit on Sunday so I can give you the best North American International Auto Show coverage possible (within our budget)!
The party starts with the Ford Press Conference at 8:45 AM Eastern on Monday, January 11. Stay tuned!
Too close to call!

I think I have it covered. MRT's Scott Hoag is letting me crash at his place. I wish I had put my Ford Press Fleet request in sooner though!

I have no idea. I had requested a 2010 Mustang GT from the press fleet when they first came out, but never got one. I assume they have everything from base Fusions to GT500s and Raptors for various magazines to test and review.

How sweet would it be to get a GT500 or a Raptor?? That might make missing the Bama game worth it...unless its snowing then I wouldn't want to be in the GT500

Hey Brad, could you do me a favor and see what the Ford area is giving away to people attending? I remember going to an auto show one year and they gave out black Mustang hats with silver stripes. Last year at NYIAS, they gave out F150 hats at the truck stand. If they are giving something cool away for the intro of the 5.0, any chance you could snag an extra for me? 
All kidding aside, have a BLAST at Detroit!! I can't wait to see the press conference on Monday morning at work!!!

Cool man I'm at the airport on my way to Chicago right now. I'll be driving to Detroit from there but I leave on Saturday before the show starts. I have some connections, so I'm going to see if I can dig up some info before it's revealed next week!

Bah...I cannot root for Alabama ! Sorry Brad, As a Dolphin I CANNOT STAND THE COACH ! Nick SATA....I mean Saban will always be remembered by us Dolphans as a liar and traitor. A thief in the night who said and claimed one thing that evening, and was gone by morning.
I wish him no success and I hope he gets his but handed to him. Unlikely considering who they are playing, but here's hoping.
AS for the Show, have fun and I look foward to reading your report

It would be awesome to see the special edition package, but I still don't understand why they chose to do a GT/CS package. They already had that for three years and now they have a 5.0... why not the Boss or maybe even another Mach 1 package. I know they have the Boss 302R, but that's too rich for my blood. I would LOVE to see a Boss 302 in Grabber Blue...
