2015 Ford Super Duty Leaves the Competition Behind



We put our 2015 Ford Super Duty against the best the competition has to offer. If you're looking for a truck that can tow, this is what's currently in the market. We took all three trucks on a grueling series of drives, each vehicle towing 20,000 lbs. From high in the Colorado Rockies to the unforgiving desert at Davis Dam, the Ford Super Duty outperformed the competition -- again!

1962 Ford Mustang I Concept Promotional Film



The cameras were rolling in 1962 as the designers, engineers and craftsmen at Ford Motor Company created a diminutive, experimental sports car dubbed the Mustang. The mid-engined two-seater was powered by a 1.5-liter V4 engine and it was introduced to the world at the United States Grand Prix at Watkins Glen, New York in October 1962.

History of Street-Legal Drag Racing, 1949 to 2013 - HOT ROD



It's been the core of grassroots hot rodding since the very beginning: you're on the street with your car, another rodder pulls alongside, and you go at, drag racing to see who has the quicker ride. Illegal street racing found its way to sanctioned tracks as early as 1949, and that's when street-driven cars began to morph into pure race cars. Yet for 65 years, hot rodders have remained interested in real street-driven cars that are also fast on the strip. In this episode of HOT ROD Unlimited, David Freiburger traces the history of street-legal drag racing, with insider information on the development of the Fastest Street Car Shootout in the '90s, the HOT ROD Pump Gas Drags in the mid-2000s, and the current challenges facing HOT ROD Drag Week

Shrink Ray: Designing Hot Wheels - Mustang Countdown



Creating a Ford Mustang that looks right when it's only two inches long is not as simple as just dividing all the dimensions by 64. As chief designer for Hot Wheels, Felix explains that his design team starts with digital CAD models from automakers like Ford and then proceeds to increase the size of the wheels while shrinking other details such as mirrors.

Mustang has been a part of the Hot Wheels lineup since the very first series was produced in 1968 with tens of millions of toys produced since then, making the diminutive rides the best selling ponies of all time.
