Jay Klehfoth was born into a General Motors family – but you wouldn’t guess it by looking in his garage. Klehfoth is the proud owner of four Ford Model Ts, the first of which he bought when he was only 13 years old. “When my son was about six or seven, he used to tell people I bought my 1927 Model T Coupe new. He confused the fact that it was the first car I bought, not that I bought it new,” Klehfoth said, with a chuckle. “From the time I was very young, I had an interest in cars. I was a

When Ford Chief Engineer for Safety Systems Steve Kozak decided to give a new car to his teenage daughter as a graduation gift only one model would do: the 2008 Ford Mustang GT convertible, the No. 1-selling and top safety-rated drop-top in the U.S. The 2008 Mustang GT is the only convertible to earn a five-star safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) for frontal crash, side impact and rollover tests. It is one of six Ford vehicles since 2000 to merit

Ford’s Oakville Assembly Complex (OAC) in Ontario, Canada, will begin producing ‘green’ energy this summer through the use of the company’s patented Fumes-to-Fuel system, an eco-friendly, industry-leading pollution-control system that converts emissions from the plant’s paint shop into electricity to help power the plant. The experimental Fumes-to-Fuel system at OAC already is turning emissions from the plant's paint shop into useable fuel, which will later be used to power a fuel cell that ge

Almost two thirds of UK motorists say fuel economy is the number one priority when buying a new car according to a new survey by Motorpoint. The poll by the UK’s leading car supermarket group found 64% of people regarded fuel economy as the key consideration when changing their vehicle – a clear indication that the escalating cost of petrol is having a direct effect of people’s buying behaviour. This comes as new sales figures from Motorpoint show a sharp rise in sales of small cars such as

The 2009 Ford Flex adds another industry-first claim to growing list of why buys: It’s the world’s first trouser- and dress-friendly vehicle. Good news for everyone but dry cleaners, the Flex team engineered into Ford’s newest crossover a concealed rocker panel, the structural component at the bottom of the door aperture. “The Flex design is so clean and efficient that we’ve been able to reduce the step-in area,” said Rich Gresens, Flex chief designer. “The clever design minimizes your c

When customers take their new Ford Flex for its first spin this summer, they may be surprised by what's missing: the noise.

That's good news for customers, who tend to directly relate a vehicle's quietness with its quality, says Derrick Kuzak, Ford's group vice president of Global Product Development. "Quietness is a very good proxy for quality in a vehicle."
