If you’ve ever been to Wisconsin, you may have heard of Spring Green. The small town is famous for the landmark, Taliesin, built by Frank Lloyd Wright. It’s also the location where the auto aficionados, the Ringbrothers, set up shop. The duo—Mike and Jim Ring—have been attracted to cars since their childhood. Their father owned a gas station and they loved to hang out there.

The brothers now have a shop dedicated to solely custom car creation.

Those who love muscle cars have long since gravitated towards the legendary Ford Mustang. Now in its tenth generation, the seminal performance model has won the hearts and minds of drivers on both sides of the pond. Only there's one catch: Europeans haven't been able to drive this model until now.

This is a proud year for Ford Motor Company, as the manufacturer hits year seven on Ethisphere's World's Most Ethical Companies® list.

Instead of talking about what an honor it is for Ford to be the only automaker to make the list of 131 global companies, let's talk about a few reasons Ford earned this.

• Ford is making the world's first wheelchair-accessible SUV.


• Ford is the first automaker to join the Electronic…

In the spirit of throwback Thursday, or as some like to call it #tbt, we wanted to remind our readers and customers of Ford Motor Company's powerful Instagram PSA campaign.

Go further responsibly. Please, don't like and drive.

For Ford, it's about so much more than simply producing stylish, reliable, and high-performing cars. Rather, the brand is also committed to going above and beyond in other realms of its business, as it seeks to solve real problems that real people face on a day to day basis.

"For best results, rent a cabin along Sturgeon Bay, which is about four hours from Chicago. There, you can ski, sled and snowshoe by day and play board games next to a roaring fire by night. Head up to Potawatomi State Park for even more winter activities, including snowmobiling."

Are you familiar with the popular TV show, Project Runway? In it, designers from around the country travel to New York City where they work and live during the course of the show. Each week, different challenges are issued and the designer whose work isn’t up to snuff says goodbye.

It’s interesting to see how the designers pull looks together. For professional photographer, Alice Gao, the process of fashion design isn’t second nature. Gao agreed to be part of Ford’s “Switch it Up” challenge and create a vintage ensemble, even though she said she doesn’t…

You’ve likely heard of the acronym, STEM, right? It stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math—four areas in which women still lag behind men in the marketplace. In fact, statistics show that the number of women in these areas is actually declining.

Programs have sprouted up all around the country to provide education and familiarity with these subjects, and to encourage girls and young women to pursue a career in one of these fields.

The small crossover is a segment beloved by families, and there is no American-made crossover more popular than the Ford Escape. For the 2017 model year, the Blue Oval has listened to customer feedback and made their favorite model even better with a new face and a whole host of new features.
