Ford Motor Company held a Ride and Drive event for the 20th Essence Festival junket participants. We were able to pick the car of our choice ranging from the F-150 to the Mustang and take it for a spin around the streets of New Orleans. A few of the upgrades that you can now choose on any Ford are heated and cooling seats and steering wheel. How great is that!
Also, Ford’s multicultural marketing manager Shawn Thompson, discussed the “Ford’s commitment to the community is unwavering. For the first 250 test drives they are giving away $20 to a local breast cancer awareness organization, so those funds will stay right in New Orleans.”
Ford also gave the junket participants an awesome Sonos music system. Thank you Ford! Check out more photos from the Ford Ride and Drive event in the gallery. –joi pearson @joiapearson
