Ford Enhances Their Virtual Crash System

JACKSON, Mich - As Ford prepares for the debut of several new vehicles this year, what better time to make some technological improvements? Ford Enhances Their Virtual Crash System by increasing their computing power by 50 percent! What this increase will allow is for Ford to maximize the speed and number of virtual vehicle crash tests performed while obtaining an even higher level of safety for Ford customers. 

Ford's latest technology investment for their virtual crash system will allow the engineers and vehicle evaluation teams to receive more data at a faster rate. The combined physical and virtual crash tests help ensure that Ford vehicles meet or exceed industry safety requirements. With all of the new body styles, features and advanced systems on vehicles today, many countries have now developed unique regulations that Ford must abide by. Ford's new technology investment, and of course the outstanding employees, will make this larger workload more manageable.

Ford Motor Company's very first crash test dates back to 1954! Since then, the company has made countless adaptations to the latest and greatest technologies. Today, Ford's crash barrier facility can actually be transformed to perform various vehicle tests. Now, frontal, side and rear impact tests to evaluate the restraint and airbag systems can be done under one roof. Vehicle preparation for these tests takes any where from a few days to a few weeks depending on the complexity of the test. But, once the tests are complete, the team can receive all of the data in just under 30 minutes!

We said it before and we will say it again, Ford has a huge and exciting year ahead! Ford Enhancing Their Virtual Crash System is the best way for them to complete testing quickly, efficiently and of course ensure they are providing customers with only the safest vehicles.

King Ranch and Ford's 15 Years of Partnership Celebration

JACKSON, Mich - In 1999, started the beginning of Ford Motor Company and King Ranch's beautiful frienship. For the last 15 years, the partnership have shared mutual philosophies of authenticity, toughness, integrity, and quality. King Ranch and Ford's 15 Years of Partnership Celebration has resulted in the debut of three new 2015 King Ranch edition trucks as well as a beautiful gallery of photos taken by Texas photographer, Wyman Meinzer. Meinzer has captured the authenticity that Ford and the ranch's partnership represent.

With over 4,000 photos, Wyman Meinzer captured the three latest King Ranch edition trucks in their natural habitat, on the King Ranch in Kingsville, Texas. As a born and raised cowboy, Meinzer knows what it takes to capture the true essence and beauty of both the ranch and trucks. These trucks were made to get down and dirty, which is the exact way Meinzer wanted to present them. You can see the entire gallery of photos on Ford.com!

Of course, how else would Ford celebrate a huge milestone? Debuting new vehicles, of course! The three newest King Ranch edition trucks are beautiful representations of the King Ranch and its story. It was important for Ford color and materials designer, Aileen Barraza, to visit the ranch several times to grasp its true personality. It is a comfortable place with a sense of genuine luxury earned from hard work. In order to express such a story through a vehicle, she had to choose the appropriate tones that could be found on the King Ranch. Each edition has a unique interior and exterior trim, enhanced equipment and special wheels that reflect both Ford and King Ranch's bona fide and top-quality character.

The three outcomes of the King Ranch and Ford's 15 Years of Partnership Celebration - the King Ranch F-150, F-Series Super Duty and Expedition - will be going on sale later this year. Seymour Ford Lincoln always keeps our customers updated on the latest and greatest Ford vehicles that are available at the dealership.

America's Best-Selling Commercial Trucks Add to Lineup

JACKSON, Mich - America's Best-Selling Commercial Trucks Add to the Lineup, raising the bar in medium-duty commercial work trucks with the all-new Ford F-650/F-750. These latest models are without a doubt the toughest, best value, work-ready Ford medium-duty trucks of all time. 

Ford welcomes the F-650/F-750 to America's broadest commercial vehicle lineup, the newest trucks with an impressive combination of commercial-grade quality, convenience, and capability. The F-650 and F-750 are serving as anchors in Ford's Commercial Truck lineup. Vocational customers can count on Ford Motor Company to be a "one-stop shop" where they can find a vehicle to fit any of their needs. Whether customers are in need of a Class 1 Ford Transit Connect cargo van or the Class 7 Ford F-750, Ford's commercial lineup will have a vehicle for any field of work. The best part? All of the trucks and vans in the Ford Commercial truck lineup will be given an all-new or refreshed look within the next 18 months.

The F-650 and F-750 will be 2016 model years and will be available in the spring of 2015. These medium-duty trucks will be torture-tested by people and machines to truly prove they are the toughest of their breed. From hauling heavy loads through the warmest of climates to towing heavy trailers up steep hills in below zero temperatures, the F-650/F-750 will endure it all. Customers will also notice the value and cost of ownership of these trucks will greatly improve in the 2016 models. There will be additional design and feature comforts that would typically be found in more mainstream products. Remote start, hands-free mobile device connectivity and ride/steering improvements are just a few of the enhanced elements drivers can expect to see.

With America's Best-Selling Commercial Trucks adding to the lineup comes one of the most important elements - the F-650/F-750 will be equipped with the Ford 6.7-liter Power Stroke® V8 diesel engine and Ford TorqShift® six-speed automatic transmission. It is enhanced for medium-duty trucks and creates a significant amount of power, performance and improved fuel economy. These trucks will be work-ready for medium-duty jobs by offering auxiliary components like the clean cab-to-axle design. With this design, the diesel exhaust fluid tank and the standard fuel tank are located under the cab rather than behind it on the frame. This particular component makes customizing easier, reducing the customer's final costs and time to delivery. Another great addition, the aluminum fuel tanks with the Power Stroke diesel that the trucks contain are actually lighter and help with efficiency. Ford Motor Company has officially raised the bar for medium-duty trucks everywhere by developing the toughest, best valued, work-ready trucks of all time.
