Automakers are constantly in competition with each other. Companies are always trying to one-up each other. Whether that’s making the strongest pickup truck, or most affordable SUV, or the most powerful muscle car, there’s always competition.

Ford is among the automakers currently pursuing these technologies. The company has been making great strides in both fields, with successful tests in both technologies. Automakers have been pushing towards cleaner, more environmentally friendly vehicles for a while now. In order to test…

Ford has brought some much-needed help to the island of Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico was ravaged earlier in 2017 by a series of devastating hurricanes and tropical storms.

However, Puerto Rico has not yet recovered from the storm damages. In fact, the island is still in much disarray. Many people are still without power, and the entire island is struggling. Basic necessities are scarce in…
