I have it on both my, and my wife's BMW (sorry EP), and I have freaked her out a few times, when I remotely "honk" the horn, when I know she's going to be approaching the car (leaving a class, or just getting home). I've also used it to cool off the car, in the parking lot at my office, during the summer. Also helpful when in a large parking lot, to locate the car, with the "walk to the car" locator. Tech can be useful, as well as useless!!! On the GT at car shows (05), if I'm walking around to see some of the other cars, I'm constantly looking back at my car, and if I see people getting to close, I "honk" the horn, by hitting the lock button twice. I can do it from quite a distance, if I hold the remote under my chin!!!!

This is cool, and all, except my $20K Chevy Cruze can do almost all of the same through the OnStar app.

Your Cruze is not a Ford GT. This site is about Ford GTs. It is for the benefit of people who own Ford GTs.

I'm aware. Just stating that the Ford Pass app isn't exactly cutting edge technology...

Whether it's in other vehicles or not it is exciting to see any and all amenities coming with the 2017 FGT. Pretty sure it has met its quota for innovative and cutting edge.

360 web cam with motion alerts?

How would one ever enjoy a meal at a restaurant if you don't have eyes on it? I will, but I won't.

I am quite sure owners of the NGT would want this but with the addition to be able to unpark itself. Saves a lot of hassle getting in between other tight parked cars.

Unlike many modern cars with electric steering (more or less a prerequisite for self parking capabilities), the NGT uses traditional hydraulic steering. More importantly, I wouldn't envision ANY NGT's in tight parking situations in the foreseeable future.

Beware of hackers lurking in your parking lot.

I'd be more concerned about them lurking in my airport. Or airplane.

Finally we can fight back when Tesla owners start boring us with their phone app.

Jealous much?
