Ford Advantage Plan Test Drive Program to Benefit Komen

In times like these, giving back to the community is more important than ever. As part of the Ford Advantage Plan, Ford has announced it is donating $20 to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure® in the name of each prospective customer that test drives a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury vehicle from now until June 1, 2009, up to $1,000,000.

The participating dealerships in South Florida include:

Fort Lauderdale – Maroone Ford of Ft. Lauderdale

Miami – World Ford/Kendall
Pompano Beach – Pompano Ford Lincoln Mercury
Homestead – Armstrong Ford of Homestead
Hialeah – Gus Machado Ford Inc.

Participating Ford dealerships will also match Ford's individual $20 contribution in the name of each customer, up to $1,000 per dealership. In addition, customers will be able to select the local Komen affiliate of their choice to direct Ford's charitable contribution.

Costumers interested in test driving a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury vehicle during the Ford Advantage Plan test drive period can log on to www.FordCares.com and obtain a registration form and registration number. After visiting a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury dealership and test driving a vehicle, dealers will provide customers with a registration code. Customers must then visit www.FordCares.com again to input the registration code, validating their form and activating the donation by Ford in their name.

There’s never been a better time to give back to the community than now. Join the fight against breast cancer and test drive a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury vehicle today!
