The Detroit Auto Show this year was a big one for the Ford Fusion. Not only did the refreshed 2017 model debut, but we got to pour over all of the brand new features in store for one of America's most popular midsize sedan. If you're wondering what new innovations are coming out to play, read on.

According to the 2016 Harris Poll Reputation Quotient, the majority of Americans will do a little research on a company before doing business. If they find out a company has a bad reputation, over a third will opt out.

That's why Ford is so proud to have been named one of Ethisphere Institute's World’s Most Ethical Companies® for the seventh year in a row.

The Ford F-150 we know and love is a creature of aluminum, steel, and more superlatives than should be linguistically legal. Although the former two were the most publicized after its launch in 2015, the latest generation marks the 40th consecutive year of sales dominance, and more class-exclusive features than we know what to do with.

There are a number of reasons drivers seeking eco-friendly vehicle options are choosing the all-new 2016 Ford Fusion Hybrid, the most recent being that it was names the "2016 Best Hybrid Car for the Money" by U.S. News & World Reports. Check it out in the link below!

For drivers who are curious about switching to a more eco-friendly vehicle, but aren't ready to make the commitment to a full-on all-electric model, the Ford C-MAX Energi Hybrid offers a competitive compromise.

The all-new 2016 Ford Focus RS is a hot hatchback unlike any we've ever experienced here at Lewis Ford Sales. Staggeringly stylish and preposterously powerful, it is, in many ways, the ultimate fusion of form and function.

Propelled by a turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder, the Focus RS dishes out a downright dizzying 350 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque.

If you’ve ever traveled to a remote area, you’ve likely wondered about health care. What would happen if you got sick or injured? How far would it be to the nearest hospital or medical center?

Drunk driving, drugged driving, distracted driving -- at Lewis Ford Sales, we firmly believe all of these forms of driving impact your ability to maintain control of your vehicle, putting you and your passengers at risk. Ford continually demonstrates a commitment to addressing this concern. The automaker's latest innovation is a "drugged drive" suit that simulates the physical effects of driving under the influence of drugs.
