When the 2015 Ford Mustang GT comes out later this year, it will be able to order a Domino's pizza for you. Technically speaking, you'll have to have ordered from the company before, and have the app on your smartphone. Then you can meet the delivery driver, hopefully tipping well, in your driveway.
Ford's new SYNC AppLink system can work with the apps already on your phone to play music, order food, seek out news and even find local coupons through an app called Roximity. This is all part of Ford's “driver-focused technology” that the company is implementing in the Mustang.
Track Apps, which will be standard on the GT and EcoBoost-equipped Mustangs, allows drivers to look at different gauges, watch a G meter, and time acceleration and braking exercises. The info can be saved in the car's computer. Track Apps can be disabled with Ford's MyKey system, for example if your 16-year-old is taking the car for a spin.
Launch Control will be standard on the GT trim. With this function, the driver can choose what rpm to launch at, anywhere from 3,000-4,500, pin the clutch and the throttle, then drop the clutch and let the Mustang do the work. The system was developed in house, according to Ford.
The GT will have four driving modes to work with including snow/wet, normal, sport and race. The modes are controlled by toggle switches on the center console, which also can adjust the steering weight and traction control separately. The shocks are not adjustable.
