When you describe a full-size pickup truck, you use words like, "manly," "rugged," and "tough." When it comes to safety in a collision, though, how safe is a truck, really?
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) cast light on some major shortcomings in the large pickup segment. When subjected to a small-overlap collision -- a much more common type of full-speed collision than a direct hit -- almost every truck examined
For almost 20 years, Ford has been fully committed to research and development of sustainable alternatives to traditional build materials. Currently, the automaker uses recycled tires in its mirror gaskets, recycled t-shirts and denim in its carpets, and, most recently, recycled plastic bottles in the REPREVE fabric for the 2016 F-150...

Last month, five real-world customers were invited to get a behind-the-scenes look at the new 2017 Super Duty. These people rely on quality trucks to get their work done, and had a vested interest in the changes Ford was making.
One of the first stops was to see the new aluminum body work. Each customer got to heft an aluminum door, and one of the old steel doors. The difference is huge, and it adds up, particularly on a SuperCrew cab with four full doors.
The lighter weight on the truck's body allows for reinvestment in performance-critical areas, like…

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.
Going through life feeling unfulfilled in any way is no way to live. That's our opinion at least, here at Lewis Ford Sales. Tina, the character from the humorous parody below, seems to agree. Tina is confronted by her boyfriend, Ricky, when he realizes he's just simply no match for the 2016 Ford Fusion.
This sad separation is tugging at our heart strings here at Lewis Ford Sales, but we're sure Tina and her Ford Fusion are going to live happily ever after. The reason? Because the Ford Fusion is designed to meet each and every one…
