Most people, even environmentalists, don't often consider how much water is used when making vehicles. Luckily, for those of us that do care, Ford is working on the issue. The truth is, a ton of water is used in all manufacturing processes, and the good news is, Ford has plans to decrease its per-vehicle water usage 30 percent by the year 2015, in addition to the company's already-accomplished decrease of 45 percent between 2000-2010 (and quite a bit more on a global level). That's 10.5 billion gallons of water (or 262 loads of laundry!) saved.

How would you like to go on adventure involving the new 2012 Ford Explorer? Several New Jersey pastors recently found out what it would be like when they were invited to take the trip of a lifetime due to pastor Russell Sterger's simple internet search for a new Ford.

Are you the kind of driver who wants your car to stand out? Or, do you like to downplay your car's "sexy" factor and focus on other vehicle features? When Ford showcased its new Ford Evos concept at the 2011 Frankfurt Auto Show recently, some experts began to worry that the car might too "hot" for families to handle. The Evos certainly does have a lot of style, as well as some turned-up sex appeal compared to other, more traditional Ford models. And, while the Evos itself isn't likely to go on sale as shown in concept form, Ford has promised to use its design-structure as the new "face" of upcoming Ford vehicles.

Because over half of potential American car-buyers  are still confused about the differences between hybrid and electric cars, Ford  has decided to take a gentle approach to explaining the topic. The company recently partnered with SHFT, a "green" media platform developed by film producer Peter Glatzer and actor Adrian Grenier of the television show "Entourage." SHFT aims to show the public how trends in sustainability are shifting and what this means for them as consumers. The groups plan to collaborate for at least the next two years.
