When you've got a strong, capable Ford truck, you go to great lengths to take care of it. You wash it weekly, keep up with regularly scheduled maintenance, clean out the bed after hauling, and park it at the back of the parking lot when you go to the store so you don't have to worry about getting dinged by some careless driver's door. But when it comes to keeping it clean on the inside, it's always a bit tougher. Short of carrying around a door mat to wipe your boots on before hopping in your…

A certifiable living legend of the sports car class, the Ford Mustang has forever been one of our favorites here at Hoblit Motors. That much you probably could've guessed.

What you might not have known, however, is that the Mustang is also a darling of Autotrader critic, Eric Lanford. And, in the video below, he'll explain just why that is. Take a moment to hear him out:

The Mustang is available with your choice of one of three distinctive drivetrains. For the purposes of today's post, though, we'd like to tell you a bit about its…

If you've never previously contemplated owning a hot hatchback, the all-new 2016 Ford Focus RS just may be the ride that'll make you reconsider.

Of course, after making a statement like that, we at Hoblit Motors recognize the need for substantiation. And here today to help us do just that is Auto Trader UK Senior Road Tester, Paul Bond. His review of the Focus RS is available in the video below:

The mid-level EcoBoost engine option, the latest in the Explorer lineup, provides a brilliant blend of fun and frugality. Paired with a six-speed automatic gearbox, this turbo 2.3-liter four-cylinder produces ...

Ford is following in the tire tracks of Uber and Lyft with its latest innovation.

You guessed it: the automaker is producing its own ridesharing app using original software. An algorithm determines the most efficient route for a rider once he or she inputs a destination. A driver already headed in that direction picks him or her up in a Ford Transit van with 6 to 8 other passenger in tow.

When developing new materials, sometimes you have to look outside your own human perspective. The natural world has been solving problems for billions of years, and often nature's way is the most efficient way.
