Ford has always been known as a maker of tough, dependable cars and trucks, but few are aware that while Ford vehicles are super durable, they're also super sustainable. In fact, Ford has long been an industry leader in crafting vehicles with recycled or sustainable materials, and today, it announced that it will be advancing its sustainable technology operation to engineer plastics and foam materials for its new vehicles out of recycled carbon emissions.

Here at Brighton Ford, we wish that we could read minds when it came to our customer's needs. That way, we could help them make informed decisions about what car best fits them even better than before. Of course, we could always enlist the help of Psycho Mantis from the Metal Gear Solid games. Not only is he good with telekinesis, he can read your mind like a book.

We all crave a little getaway once in a while, especially when we've had a tough work week and we're feeling stressed. When you hit the road for a little escape, make sure you're driving a vehicle that offers just that, an escape.
