Los Angeles, CA's wildfires have recently inflicted severe and widespread damage, leaving many without homes and countless businesses destroyed. Despite the heavy toll, support has emerged from the auto industry, including the respected American automaker Ford Motors. Ford has announced a series of measures to aid affected community members and first responders as they work toward recovery and rebuilding.

 
Beyond producing cars like the Mustang and F-150, Ford has spent 75 years building communities through its philanthropic efforts.

 
Henry Ford was a man of extraordinary talent. In 1886, he constructed his first rudimentary automobile, a vehicle equipped with four bicycle wheels and an engine lacking a reverse function. It was a humble beginning. By 1903, Ford was prepared to establish the Ford Motor Company, a decision that would forever alter history.

The Ford Motor Company launched the EcoSport crossover SUV in North America in 2018. This subcompact model enjoyed a brief run on the American marketplace compared to the competition. Due to major economic changes on a global scale, this inexpensive vehicle will no longer be part of Ford's lineup starting in 2023. As Ford continues to focus on electric vehicles and partially electrified cars all over the world, traditional models with internal combustion engines will quickly disappear from the roster.

The season of thankfulness and giving is upon us again and this year we'd like to offer $5 off any auto service when you bring in an unwrapped toy for the Toys for Tots program! This will be valid from now until December 14, 2022.

This month, we are excited to celebrate our 50^th anniversary! Our popular family owned and operated car dealership has served the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area with the highest standard of service and customer care. As a staple, we at Town East Ford take pride in treating all our customers with hospitality, respect, and honesty. Along with our commitment to these core values, we like to stay in-touch with the community by helping support those in need.

 
Many people have requested Ford to begin selling a compact pickup truck, and the automaker has now responded. The Ford Maverick is expected to be a 2022 model and will be released next year. Ford recently released information about the production data to its investors and announced they were in the process of manufacturing a "C-Pick Up." They are currently testing a few prototypes and made 21 of the models.

 

The Ford Co-Pilot360 system is a "must-have" amenity for anyone looking to stay safe on the road. The innovative safety package is one of the most comprehensive safety packages available on the market. The package will be added to Ford's lineup of vehicles, including SUVs, trucks, and sedans. It is standard on some vehicles such as the Ford F-150 line of trucks.

Driver-assist technology, such as emergency braking and blind-spot monitoring, is designed to help drivers stay safer on the road. However, it might have another side effect that is just as helpful. Ford recently conducted a study to see what effect the technology might have on back-seat drivers. Back-seat, or even passenger seat, drivers are those who offer their unsolicited opinions on your driving. Understandably, many drivers find this annoying and distracting.
