If you’re looking for a new restaurant to try, a new book to read, or a new television show to check out, you might ask a friend, a coworker, even polling the denizens of the internet for opinions and suggestions; so, when you’re looking for something as big and important as a new pickup truck to handle both your work and your play, why not do the same and go straight to the source: ask an owner. In this next video, Rob talks about why he and his family love their 2016 Ford F-150. Check it out to…

Everyone learns how to be a good friend, neighbor, and driver when they go through Driver’s Ed (we hope!), but some on-the-road etiquette doesn’t always get included in classroom discussions, especially etiquette related to electric or hybrid-electric vehicles, like Ford’s own Ford Focus Electric or Ford Fusion Energi. Today, we wanted to share some EV Etiquette and Tips from the folks at Ford, and if you’re thinking about going green yourself, come see us at Central Ford to see what the Ford lineup has to offer.

Keeping your cabin clean is one thing but, if you happen to have a bug issue, it can be a whole different kind of frustration. If you have a problem with finding spiders around your vehicle's interior, Ford has an excellent solution for you and we're sure you'll love it.

All you need to do is mix together one and a half cups of water with 20 drops of peppermint oil, then spray it around your car like an air freshener. Not only will it make everything smell great but it will also drive away those spiders…

See how #Ford and @JoseCuervo work together to give excess agave a second chance as potential car parts. #FarmToCarhttps://t.co/OmvRv11dSj

Ford continues its farm-to-car mission this year with a groundbreaking partnership with Jose Cuervo®.

No, this has nothing to do with the classic "lime squeeze" Ford Fiesta's resemblance to a margarita -- but in the near future, the Fiesta may share some ingredients with one!

To make their tequila, Jose Cuervo grows millions of agave plants each year. The rugged desert-dwelling plants are then...

Recently, Ford donated eight of its Flex crossover SUVs to the DAV Transportation Network to help transport sick and disabled veterans to VA medical centers around the U.S.

For over 94 years, Ford has teamed with the DAV in efforts to support military veterans ever since the automaker first donated its Model T Fords back in 1922. Additionally, Ford assists over 700,000 military veterans with access to health care and services each year.

For the 2017 model update, the new Ford Fusion has a slightly altered front-end appearance. It features a sportier grille, and subtle-yet-dynamic lines -- but the real change is not one of aesthetics.

Last year, the Ford Fusion aced four out of five of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's crashworthiness tests, but only received a rating of "acceptable" on a scale of good, acceptable, marginal, and poor for the dreaded...

In the pantheon of pony cars, there are very few that can hold a candle to ours, the 2016 Ford Mustang.

And lest you suspect that such an opinion is one that's unique to us at Central Ford, we'd now like to link the following video. Pair up with Autotrader pundit, Jabari Jones, as he takes the Mustang for a test run:

Fun, yet frugal, the Mustang's mid-level engine option -- the EcoBoost -- is truly exceptional. Twisting out a terrific 310 horsepower and 320 pound-feet of torque, this turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder is available with your pick of…

When it comes to Earth-changing innovations, our favorite American automaker is always doing everything they can and we couldn't be more proud to be associated with them. This time, we'd like to talk about how they're helping to lessen the impact of carbon dioxide on the planet! Mimicking the way plants make carbon dioxide and UV light into sugar, Ford has polymerized carbon dioxide to turn it into plastic! They then mold it into the parts you need in your car, like cup holders, to help save the planet and keep your drives comfortable and convenient. Learn…

The #FarmToCar mission is simple: replace petroleum-based plastics with plant-based materials.https://t.co/ETS8NqtqxL

You may think of soybeans as a modern health-food craze, but actually, they have been grown in America since we were the colonies. They were mainly used as forage for livestock in those days.

In the 1930s, Henry Ford dreamed of bringing together American agriculture with the auto industry. He himself had grown up on a farm. He believed that if plastics could be made with petroleum oil, they could be made with soybean oil
