Alexa is the friendly voice behind Amazon Echo. She lives inside a small cylindrical speaker. Set her up in the living room, and you and the whole family can play music just by saying, "Alexa, play Justin Timberlake's latest album," or check the weather using conversational phrases like, "Alexa, will I need an umbrella today?"

Ford, which has been mastering voice-command technology itself with SYNC, has its…

We at Pines Ford were wondering: have you had a chance to check out our full-size SUV, the new-and-improved 2016 Ford Explorer? If not, we have five little words for you:

What are you waiting for!?

Well, regardless of your reasoning, we hope you're ready for all the awesome this auto has in store. See it for yourself in the clip below:

When it comes to the top-of-the-line Platinum trim, ludicrous luxury is no doubt the name of the game.

Standard equipment on this model includes the most muscular engine option in the range -- a 365-horsepower turbo-V6, at that…

Treads, who has "changed more tires than most people have changed socks." Jigsaw, who "knows exactly how all the pieces fit together." And Maestro, who "makes sure that the right parts, the right techs and the right service all fall in line." These are just a few of the elite Specialists on Ford's service team, as you'll learn if you visit https://social.ford.com/content/campaign/the-specialists/?fmccmp=social-fb-paid-fs-lp-theSpecialists.

“Look out behind you! You’ll be crushed!”

Not many high school choirs can say they've performed with the likes of Foreigner. But the Bristow High School Choir can, thanks to Ford's Drive 4 UR School efforts. The program also helps raise money to support extracurricular or artistic school programs, like music, that are often the first to go after budget cuts.

For most people looking for an eco-conscious car these days, a hybrid seems the clear answer. But sometimes, a gasoline-electric vehicle just isn't available in the segment you're shopping in. So what do you do then? You opt for a Ford model with EcoBoost, of course. Not only are these cars eco-conscious, they're hella powerful.

In today's world of information overload, distracted driving only continues to increase as a safety concern. Did you know almost 660,000 drivers are using their cellphones or other electronic devices while driving at any given moment, according to Distraction.gov? That number hasn't changed much since 2010, showing that this issue isn't going away. We at Pines Ford ask our customers to please keep their eyes on the road. Together, we can help combat distracted driving.

It was Nelson Mandela who said, "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." Without knowledge and experience, there can be no progress.

Without brave and generous minds, Ford's legacy would not be possible. That’s why we're excited to highlight Ford UK's Prize for Women in STEM Study...
