    My Weekend with @Ford Focus

    What a super fun weekend I had with my family for Chinese New Year in Toronto.  To kick of the lunar new year right, my first stop right after our flight landed was straight to Oakville to the Ford HQ.

    Ford has developed an amazing relationship with bloggers and lent me the brand spanking new Ford Focus to test drive. THANK YOU!

    The Focus was easy to handle and a pleasure to drive.  The headrest and bucket-like seats were comfy with fully automated seat adjustment.  The side mirrors were easy to adjust and also clear as day – very important for safety especially when you are an Asian female driver!  My favorite part is that the driver and passenger side have their own temperature control for heating/cool air and there are seat warmers for 5 different levels of heat.  My bum is usually warm so I kept it at 1!

    This car is extremely fuel efficient and 1 tank of gas lasted me 5 days of downtown, uptown, Scarborough and all around driving.  The interior had a cream and black leather seats hat made if feel sporty and luxurious.  I love the way it looks, feels, drives and preforms!

    Lots of Ford Event coming up like the Ford’s Blue Party at Liberty Grand in Toronto on Feb 10 at 7pm andthe all day Ford x Style Caster Fashion Week Kick off conference Feb 7th here in New York City.

    My Weekend with @Ford Explorer

    Hectic weekends need more horsepower, technology and swagg 🙂  I was so lucky to drive the new Red Candy 2012 Ford Explorer all weekend.

    Remember when I went to the Ford Conference in Detroit? Well our friend Rhonda was sweet enough to be hooking bloggers up that Ford experience all over Toronto. It was a huge weekend, very busy, lots to do for a massive wedding! My sister getting married means me running around for 72 hours. Here is the sweet ride.

    The Ford Explorer is fun to drive! So many condo parking lots with tight spots… but not too hard for me!

    Easy to park because it has a camera in the back. It beeps when something is too close and has a green, yellow and red warning scale.

    Shiny Grill and bright fog lights

    The fuel economy was great too. Driving from downtown to Scarborough to Markham back Downtown and back to Scarborough, we hardly used 1/2 a tank of gas.
