Ever had, “one of those days?” You oversleep because the power went out in the night, the dog has an accident while you’re in the middle of making breakfast, and the kids fight all the way to school. The guy in front of you cuts you off in traffic. Your boss reams you out for being late. With mornings like this it’s no wonder that so many of us are stressed on our morning commute.

This Ford video will help:

Don't let your morning commute stress you out. Here's how to stay calm in your #Ford…

Whether you enjoy traversing the backcountry and sleeping under the stars, or pulling your favorite camper to a new-to-you campsite, a truck comes in very handy. In fact, the Ford F-150 does a stellar job of towing your camper, fishing boat, or other equipment where it needs to go.

Wouldn’t you love to see one of those parked in your driveway, with your camper ready to go? Think of all the fun summer memories you’ll make!

If you’ve ever played baseball, you have likely used a pitching machine at some point. Did you know that a typical pitching machine can launch a baseball at about 90 mph? Ford wondered how many miles per hour that machine could get when hooked up with one of its EcoBoost engines. If you guessed in the ballpark of 200 mph, you’re right!

Imagine being the guy trying to hit that baseball as it came flying at top speed out of the machine?

What are your thoughts about fashion? Do you salivate over the newest trends in glossy magazines and get a thrill when you see new designs, or could you care less?

Stella, a French designer, adores fashion. In fact, she’s so passionate about it that she made it into her life’s work. Designers are all inspired by different things: nature, urban landscapes, graffiti, particular colors, and more. Stella’s inspiration comes from the vintage times of the 1950s.

If you want innovation, ask a designer. Creative to the core, designers working in home styling, graphic and web work, fashion or automobiles, seem to speak the same language in many ways.

Example: the Salone del Mobile in Milan, Italy. This is an annual event which features furniture and furnishing exports. It started in 1961 and last year, Ford designers took part in the event by creating furnishings inspired by the 2016 Ford GT.

Are you into fashion? Does your heart flutter when you see the newest glossy fashion magazine on the store shelves or the newest blog post on fresh accessories online?

Stella, a French designer, draws inspiration for her clothing line from the 1950s. During that period of time she says, women dressed beautifully and cars—with their classic beauty—were stellar.
