How Did Ford Show Motor Car Operation Was Cheaper Than Horse Carriage Operation?

The Ford Motor Company is about engineering, manufacturing and marketing.  In 1900, most of the wealthy owned horse carriages.
How did Henry Ford show that operation of an automobile was cheaper than operation of a horse carriage?
 
The original cost for a Ford car was about $1,000 in 1900.  If you added operation, new tires, paint and repairs, it would be $364 more.  The total for car operation would be $1…

Ford Trucks Can Handle Your Towing Needs

Yesterday I saw a great video that discusses the 2017 Ford Super Duty truck.  The video was short, lasting only a few minutes.  However, the video was well put-together and explained some of the best features of the 2017 Ford Super Duty.

Can you parallel-park your 2017 Ford Super Duty with a trailer?  Could you do so with obstacles in the way?  Instead of getting stuck and slowing down everyone else, the Super Duty's (now standard) adaptive steering system helps you get the job done.
Parallel parking can be a trying experience -- even for experienced drivers.  It's a process that typically involves a great deal of fine-tuning.  One will move back and forth, cutting the steering wheel to and fro until they feel they fit comfortably.
 
Thankfully, this task is made much easier with the help of the F-150's…

Drifting Along: "The Stig" And The Ford Focus RS


Even in a car designed for exceptional performance like the Ford Focus RS with a motoring veteran such as Ben "The Stig" Collins behind the wheel, an immaculate drift is anything but child's play. Just ask the guy making it look easy in this video.

There's plenty that can go wrong at any given moment, which is why only trained, experienced drivers should attempt a drift under strictly controlled conditions. That's what makes it so easy for Collins to appreciate the way the newly introduced Drift Mode instantly shifts bias to the rear wheels with the push…

So unfortunately, as fun as shopping for a new Ford vehicle may be, there's going to be some math in the process in the form of a car loan, financing offer, or lease. But we want to make the numerical portion of your…

Don't settle for salvage, get the best for your Ford vehicle with Genuine Ford Parts!

You'd go in and complain, wouldn't you? Of course you would, so why is it that when the same practice of picking out of the trash happens at many auto shops, we're not similarly outraged?
