Ford has recently incorporated new adaptive steering technology into the 2017 F-Series Super Duty and Edge SUV lineup, giving drivers more steering control at all speeds.
Whether you’re taking the kids to soccer practice or taking your crew to a work site, Ford’s new adaptive steering technology was made to work as hard as you do.
In 2012 Ford updated their entire Focus line-up. The refresh and facelift reignited the market's love for the Ford Focus line-up. One of the big introductions that came with that refresh was the powerful Ford Focus ST. Now five years later, the ST has been pushed aside by its more powerful counterpart, the Focus RS. But, let's all be honest here, the Ford Focus ST has plenty of great features to come out of the shadows once again.
Coming out of the dealer, the ST is loaded with 252 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque making it a…
Seemingly in an effort to solidify its place in the world of hot hatchbacks, Ford's released an all-new one -- the Focus RS -- for the 2016 model year.
So, as such, we at Muscatell Burns Ford thought we'd provide you with a closer look at it today. Team up with Auto Trader UK Senior Road Tester, Paul Bond, to discover that which the Focus RS brings to the table:
Beneath the bonnet of this beast, a turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine holds court with a six-speed manual gearbox. Served up standard with a specialized all-wheel-drive platform, overall output for…

"For nearly two decades, researchers have worked successfully to develop sustainable materials for Ford products. In North America, soy foam is in every Ford vehicle. Coconut fiber backs trunk liners; recycled tires and soy are in mirror gaskets; recycled T-shirts and denim go into carpeting; and recycled plastic bottles become REPREVE fabric used in the 2016 F-150."

Have you seen the plans for Ford's new product campus in Dearborn? They have us contemplating sending in a resume and moving to Michigan.
The digital mock-ups (shown in the tweet above) illustrate sleek futuristic buildings arranged around lush green spaces that remind us of a university quad. That's not all this campus has to offer, either. According to Ford, new employee services will be
Though many fans of classic steel-bodied trucks are skeptical, the advantage of aluminum body panels is immense. The metal is highly recyclable, which is good for the environment, never rusts, which is good for longevity, and its light weight improves fuel economy.
For the 2017 Super Duty, however, the goal was not to reduce the total weight of the truck, but to reinvest weight from the body to performance-critical parts.
New to 2017, the Super Duty is losing its relatively flexible c-channel frame, and upgrading to a rigid fully-boxed frame. Made of 95-percent high-strength steel, the
This year, the Ford F-150 revolutionized the truck industry, and for model that has been an American favorite for decades, that was a pretty gutsy move.
After all, the Ford F-150 has been providing Americans with revolutionary power and truck practicality for 67 years, beginning with the first-ever F-series, which were introduced in 1948. After the original generation, which consisted of the F-1 (half-ton), F-2 (three-quarter ton), and F-3 (heavy-duty), a new generation was introduced every decade, including two redesigns in the 2000s...
If you're a fan of the Ford F-150, you'll be pleased to know this popular truck made a revolutionary change this year that serves as a "wake-up call" for the rest of the pickup truck segment.
Specifically, the F-150 made the switch to a high-strength, military-grade aluminum-alloy body and steel frame construction, which means a higher power-to-weight ratio than ever before, as well as the highest EPA-estimated fuel economy ratings of any light-duty gas-powered pick-up. How's that for impressive?
