Mustang Sally, Better Slow That Cellphone Down

Don't like Ford cars? Maybe you'll like their ringtones even better. From the "you-can't-make-this-s**t-up" department:
Ford is trying to curry its fans’ favor by releasing ringtones (and wallpapers) of its cars. One of which is the Ford Mustang, whose ringtones include that most American of songs, “The Star Spangled Banner.” Now, it’s not just, you know, instruments playing these songs. Nope, Ford went ahead and recorded engine and other car sounds to serve as the instruments.
It's almost hard to believe Ford is in such dire straits. Let's hope the guy who thought up this idea was one of the ones laid off.
