Texas and Oklahoma Ford dealers are offering an exclusive Mustang
that's sure to become a collector's item. Only 500 of the
special-edition Mustangs will be sold, authenticated with an
engraved, numbered plaque.

"Mustang has a long tradition of offering special packages like the
Twister and California Special," says Mark Grueber, Ford marketing
strategy manager for the Southwest region. "We have a special Texas
Edition F-150 and Super Duty, and Mustang is such a part of the Texas
landscape, we thought it would be a natural fit."

The Stampede Edition Mustang V-6 coupe builds on the Pony Package,
featuring 17-inch, painted-aluminum wheels and a pony grille with
integrated fog lamps. The Stampede adds wide, 9-inch silver racing
stripes, exclusive Stampede badging (including a Stampede Edition gas
cap), chrome pony spinner caps, chrome exhaust tips and a rear
spoiler.

The Interior Upgrade Package adds the unique MyColorT Instrument
Panel Display, offering up to 125 color backgrounds at the touch of a
button, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. The standard Shaker 500
audio system features a six-disc CD player; a Shaker 1000 audio
system is also available. The Interior Upgrade Package includes
six-way power seats. Carpeted front floor mats carry unique
brushed-chrome "Mustang" badging.

"A lot of customers are looking for something unique," says Grueber.
They want to "Texasize" their vehicles. The Stampede gives them the
opportunity to own something unique."

All 500 Stampede Mustangs have been produced and are on their way to
one of the roughly 300 Ford dealers in Oklahoma and Texas.
