Ford to Manufacture the 2016 Ranger in Nigeria

JACKSON, Mich. – Should you just get over the idea of Ford Motor Co. bringing the Ranger back to the states? Unfortunately, it’s looking that way now that Ford will manufacture the 2016 Ranger in Nigeria, but, of course, not in the U.S.

While we don’t think you should feel bitter about the decision – or the fact that over 148 other global markets across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa have the Ranger but you don’t – we definitely understand why you might be a little upset.

The last Ranger that rolled of a U.S. assembly line was in St. Paul, Minn., back in December 2011. It has only been a few years since a next-generation Ranger was available to American truck buyers, but if you’re one of them it probably feels more like an eon.

Not to cause you even more heartache over the fact that Ford will manufacture the 2016 Ranger in Nigeria, but the automaker’s popular midsize pickup is already making a huge name for itself through some impressive specifications. Along with its versatility that makes it a great off-road and city vehicle, the new Ranger can two around 8,000 pounds, can wade through over 2 feet of water, and was artfully designed to conquer steep ascents and descents.

Are you feeling pretty jealous right now? You’re feeling jealous right now.

The good news is the 2016 Ranger could be a catalyst for improving the lives of Nigerians. The new Ranger will be assembled in a new Ford plant located in Ikeja, a suburb of Lagos, with body parts and components imported from South Africa. The assembly plant will create 180 new jobs and produce around 5,000 units annually that are exclusively sold in Nigeria.

While we’re as envious as you are that customers in practically every other global market outside of North America get to sit behind the wheel of the 2016 Ranger, we’re also very proud to be a Ford dealer knowing that Ford cares about providing feasible transportation, jobs, and community improvement all over the world.

Ford’s impact on global communities has a deep influence on how we involve ourselves in our local community. Along with hosting and sponsoring local events to improve the community and inform local citizens, we also like to remind our customers that we care a great deal about the quality of their vehicles. The next time you’re near our used car dealership serving Albion, Mich., stop in for an oilchange or let us take care of your other auto service needs!

University of Michigan Launches Mcity to Test Self-Driving Cars

JACKSON, Mich. – Recently, Ford Motor Co. did away with any speculation surrounding its efforts to produce an autonomous vehicle and got down to business. It turns out the automaker is moving closer to autonomous vehicle development and expects to have a model ready in the not-so-distant future.

Coincidentally, the University of Michigan launched Mcity to test self-driving cars in July 2015. As the university put it, Mcity is a controlled environment designed to grow an understanding of and the development of connected and automated vehicle technologies that could pave the way for driverless cars.

The 32-acre testing ground, located on U–M's North Campus Research Center in Ann Arbor, Mich., replicates urban and suburban environments through a system of roads that adds up to 5 miles and includes intersections, roundabouts, roadway markings, and traffic signs and signals. To make the simulation as accurate as possible, Mcity also includes sidewalks, bus facilities, benches, simulated buildings, streetlights, parked cars, robotic pedestrians, and random obstructions like construction barriers.

According to the university, U–M’s Mobility Transformation Center (MTC) team was carried out the design and development of Mcity to test self-driving cars. MTC is an alliance of the U–M Transportation Research Institute, the College of Engineering, a number of automotive companies, and the Michigan Department of Transportation.

Thanks to U–M’s deep interest in contributing research to the future of autonomous vehicles, companies like Ford will have another vantage point to gain insight from as it continues to move forward in the development of its own autonomous vehicle technology. We look forward to the beneficial research that will come from Mcity, and we can’t wait to see how Ford and other companies utilize that information as they develop autonomous vehicle technology.

Although your vehicle may drive you someday, rather than vice versa, we’re betting you’ll still need to maintain it. Don’t forget the importance of giving your vehicle a regular oil change and keeping your tires in good shape. We can help you with both of these or any other auto service needs you have at our used car dealership serving Adrian, Mich.

Ford Develops Screen to keep Spiders out of Your Car

JACKSON, Mich.– Have you ever met someone who actually likes spiders? The majority of people are so fearful of these 8-legged creepy crawlers that their anxiety could be classified as unhealthy. Unfortunately, if you have arachnophobia one of your worst nightmares just became a reality: Spiders could be nesting in your car. But don’t worry because Ford developed a screen to keep spiders out of your car.

The culprit is a ubiquitous North American house spider called the yellow sac spider that also happens to really like nesting in the fuel vapor lines of cars. Instead of spinning a web, the yellow sac spider prefers to construct cocoon-like shelters that happen to be thick enough to clog a fuel vapor line.

Blockages in fuel vapor lines can cause engine damage and slacken vehicle performance. That's why it's a big deal that Ford developed a screen to keep spiders out of your car's fuel vapor lines so air and vapor circulation for the vehicle’s carbon canister aren't impeded.

“Spiders can be a nuisance for our vehicle owners,” said David Gimby, Ford fuel systems engineer and the mastermind behind the spider screen. “We studied these species to discern how they nest, then designed an effective device for excluding the larger, problematic spiders from nesting in our cars.”

The screen will debut with the 2016 Focus RS, but eventually you’ll be spider-free once the technology is fully implemented into the Ford lineup. Thanks to Gimby’s tingling spidey sense and Ford’s drive to develop the most beneficial technology for their customers, you won’t get tangled up in anymore sticky situations with these yellow menaces.

It would be nearly impossible to stop spiders from crawling into your vehicle because their small and stealthy creatures. Thankfully Ford's spider screen will take care of that for you. However, it's your job to keep a constant eye on the things you can prevent from hurting your vehicle. Make sure you stop in at our Albion area used car dealer to get an oil change or any other auto service when it's time!
