Planet Ford Supports Lil Jesse Toy Drive for Houston Cancer Center

Big Jesse (father), Lil Jesse, and Angie (mother) Gutierrez, winners of Randall Reed’s Planet Ford Whisperer Contest Grand Prize, a Ford F-150. Family turns red truck into sleigh to deliver toys to children with cancer.

Wonderful and inspiring holiday news that Planet Ford in Spring is proud to be part of.  Lil’ Jesse Gutierrez, a young cancer survivor and whose family won Randall Reed’s  #PlanetFordWhisperer contest in September, wants to pay it forward. The family who won a  new Ford F-150 the contest are transforming their big red truck into a big red sleigh to make some very special holiday deliveries.

Special Lil Delivery

Lil Jesse says he wants to spread some Christmas cheer to other children at the Houston hospital where he was treated. He has called on the help of Mr. Reed, The Ford Whisperer and the Planet Ford stores. Lil Jesse is a true inspiration, having battled non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma cancer and won. He has now been in remission for over two years. The 10-year-old is an actor and performs as a rapper at various venues across Texas. His ultimate dream after winning the Ford F-150 was to deliver toys to young patients battling cancer at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.

Planet Ford and Houston Humanitarian Award recipient, Mythiquer Pickett have teamed up with Lil Jesse to create this special toy drive. They’re going to help brighten the lives of young cancer patients who can’t be home for the holidays because they’re undergoing treatment.

“Contagious positivity is spreading love, hope, joy and compassion into the lives of people,” says Mr. Pickett. And “finally creating an environment where parents never have to say sorry.” Pickett’s charity is We See Abilities. He gives those with special needs a better quality of life through the joy of sports and community activities.

Lil’ Toy Drive!

The public is invited to help by dropping off new unopened toys, now through December 8th at both locations: Planet Ford off I-45 in Spring and Planet Ford on Hwy. 59 in Humble.

On December 10th, Lil Jesse and Mythiquer Pickett will load up the Planet Ford F-150 sleight with toys and goodies and deliver them to all the special girls and boys.

The Reed family believes it’s crucial to give back to the communities in which they work and live.

Each Reed family dealership sponsors and participates in local events, various school fundraisers and supports a variety of programs for children and families. “When we all give a little, we can help a lot for both the future of our kids and our community,” said Mr. Reed.

“Truck Hunters” – Saturday, 9 p.m. EST

Watch two top truck builders compete for a sale. They had to find, restore and put their personal stamp on two classic trucks. Each shop must design with a buyer in mind and, with limited direction, blend its craftsmanship and style with personalized details to gain the buyer’s favor. Only one truck will be driving off out of the shop, watch as these shops are putting it all on the line.

“Born Tough: Inside the Ford Factory” – Saturday, 10 p.m. EST

This one-hour special event lifts the veil on operations inside Ford’s historic Rouge Complex, where F-150 pickup trucks come to life. From stamping raw aluminum to the body shop to final assembly, cameras go behind the scenes and follow the high-tech descendants of Henry Ford’s groundbreaking assembly line. “Born Tough” reveals how a culture of manufacturing innovation has kept F-Series as America’s best-selling truck for 41 years.

Rick Dale is traveling the country looking to restore America one project at a time, now with his eye on a long-forgotten 1956 Ford pickup. Nick, a California grape farmer, bought the beat-up truck when he was 16 but never got around to completing the restoration because his family and farm came first. With a tight budget and just 30 days to restore it, Rick and his team work around-the-clock overcoming one challenge after another to bring this American classic back to life.

“Trucks Transformed: Custom Culture” – Sunday, 10 p.m. EST

America’s growing community of truck customizers are going to never-imagined levels of performance, utility and just plain awesomeness. How far are they willing to go? This show features far-out custom trucks like rally racer Ken Block’s snow-conquering RaptorTrax and drifting champ Vaughn Gittin Jr.’s “ultimate fun-haver.” Plus, there’s a guide to how customization has come to the masses on budgets from small to huge. “Trucks Transformed” shows just how the pickup game has gotten picked up to the extreme.

“Rescue Trucks” – Sunday, 10:30 p.m. EST

This half-hour special event follows our nation’s toughest first responders and their souped-up custom trucks, told from the perspective of these very heroes who put their courage, resourcefulness and vehicles to the test and the men and women they’ve saved. The first responders in “Rescue Trucks” share some remarkable stories of survival – and the trucks that came to the rescue.

After you are done watching the special series, we know you’re definitely going to want your own. To shop for a Ford F-150, Ford Super Duty or your own custom Ford F-series truck, visit Planet Ford on I-45 near the Louetta exit or shop online anytime at PlanetFord45.com.

  • Take pictures: If your cell phone has a camera you should take pictures of the vehicles if the damage is visible. If you have visible injuries, you should take a picture of that as well.
  • Exchange information: If you do not have the police report to the accident, you should obtain the names, address and phone number of all parties involved in the accident. You should provide and exchange insurance information. If there is a witness, you should obtain their information as well.

Co-Pilot360 Paves Future Of Driver-Assist Technologies 

Standard Driver-Assist Technologies So long are the days of needing to look over their shoulder and relying on human judgement (you should always look in conjunction with driver assist), after all, humans are… human. Plus, at Planet Ford in Spring our customers look for the latest and greatest automotive technology around like Ford’s new driver-assist Co-Pilot360.

Earlier this year, Ford introduced Co-Pilot360, its advanced suite of standard driver-assist technologies among full-line brands. Co-Pilot360 aims to help people around the world more safely and confidently face congested roads.

“Though our vehicles today are safer than ever, drivers tell us they are still stressed about getting in a potential accident,” said Jim Farley, Ford president, Global Markets. “That’s one reason why we’re making these must-have technologies accessible to millions of customers each year.”

Advanced Standard Driver Assist Package

The advanced tech suit includes:

  • standard automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection
  • blind spot information system
  • lane keeping system
  • rear backup camera
  • auto high beam lighting

This combination of assist features isn’t offered on non-luxury competitors in as standard in North America. Ford Co-Pilot360 will roll out across Ford’s new passenger cars, SUVs and trucks up to F-150 in North America, and will appear on the new 2019 Ford Edge and Edge ST this fall (very, very soon).

What Are Driver-Assist Technologies For 360?

Standard Driver-Assist Technologies The technology addresses Ford research showing a growing trend of people worrying about hitting pedestrians – and will be standard on 91 percent of Ford vehicles in North America by 2020. Ford Co-Pilot360 starts with standard automatic emergency braking – called pre-collision assist with pedestrian detection – that can help drivers avoid collisions with other vehicles or pedestrians who might accidentally cross in front of the vehicle’s path. If a potential collision is detected, a warning flashes and an alert sounds, and if the driver’s response is not sufficient, the system can automatically apply the brakes to help minimize a frontal collision.

Blind spot information system, or BLIS, uses radar to identify a vehicle entering the blind spot and alerts the driver with an indicator light in the side-view mirror. Cross-traffic alert Standard Driver-Assist Technologies can warn drivers of traffic behind when slowly backing out of a parking spot or driveway.

Lane keeping system has three functions:

  • The first can notify drivers through steering wheel vibration that they need to correct course when the system detects the vehicle drifting close to lane markings
  • The second provides steering torque to steer back toward the center of the lane
  • Third, a driver alert system, continuously monitors driving pattern using a forward-looking camera and provides visual and audio warnings when the system estimates the driver’s vigilance level to be less than that of an attentive driver

Whether it’s blind spot monitoring, lane keeping, backup cam, auto high beam lighting or pedestrian detection, Co-Pilot360 will give you the watchful eye you need for a safer, proactive travel.

Keep an eye out for the 2019 Ford Edge and Ford Edge ST with Co-Pilot360 to roll in this fall. For more information, visit Planet Ford (serving Greater Houston, Cypress, The Woodlands) off I-45 in Spring.
