Putting the Leash on New Teen Drivers!

Ah remember back when you first got your license? All those top speed runs in the middle of the night, cruising the Blvd. with your 8-track maxed out, and letting your friends ride with no seat belts. Well now that your a parent you can rest a bit easier! The Ford MyKey is the perfect chaperone.

New for 2010, many authorized Ford Dealers like Palm Springs Ford will offer a feature available on any new car called the Ford MyKey. This ingenious idea allows for a microchip to be implanted in the extra key you give your teenager. When this key is inserted into the ignition, the car recognizes that the driver is new and puts certain predefined limits on the car. These restrictions come in the form of a speed limiter, a stereo volume control, and an annoying seat belt chime...that doesn't stop until the driver fastens their belt.

And the best part is the parent has the ability to set the limits. So now all you have to do is buy a new Ford car!
