2012 Philadelphia Auto Show Highlights

This past Friday, Murphy Ford was given early access to the 2012 Philadelphia Auto Show for press day. It was pretty neat being able to walk on top of displays and sit inside the new Ford models. Ford’s biggest reveals at their displays was the 2013 Ford Escape, 2013 Ford Fusion, and the 2013 C-Max Energi (Plug-in hybrid). Ford Escape Marketing Manager, Jason Sprawka, gave a presentation highlighting these vehicles. Some other Ford vehicles on display were the 2013 Ford Taurus SHO, 2013 Ford Mustang BOSS 302, and the 2012 Ford F-150 with the Motor Trend Truck of the Year Award on top. Below find some of the pictures we took while at the show.
