2011 Ford Explorer designed and tested to world-class craftsmanship standards

Even when the all-new Explorer existed only on a computer screen, Ford was scrutinizing every inch of the redesigned SUV. Every seam, every button, every dial has been studied to make sure Explorer stands out in a crowded, competitive marketplace. In fact, Ford used such high-tech equipment as laser wands and an innovative "e-cube" to ensure the rugged, repackaged Explorer will meet the toughest craftsmanship standards when it debuts later this year.  more...

Ford pioneers new use for soy oil – rubber auto parts

At Ford, even rubber is getting the green treatment. Ford's biomaterial researchers have engineered a patent-pending formula to use renewable soy oil to improve rubber car parts and make them more environmentally friendly. By using renewable soy oil as a 25 percent replacement for petroleum, Ford has more than doubled rubber's stretchability and reduced its environmental impact. Soy-based rubber parts such as radiator deflector shields, air baffles, cupholder inserts and floor mats are under consideration for future vehicle programs.  more...
