“You should become a singer!”
Ever hear that when you were growing up? Luen Jacobs did. She’s a powerful singer and has worked in the background of the music industry for many years.
Luen dreamed of sharing a demo of her own original music with producers and executives for a long time. Through Ford’s “Mustang Moments,” she is able to do so.
In 1966, Ford entered a few GT 40 Mk.11 racecars to compete in the prestigious 24 Hours of Le Mans. The result was an unprecedented 1-2-3 podium sweep, as cars from the likes of Ferrari and Porsche were left to wonder what happened.
This summer marks the 50th anniversary of that historic accomplishment, and on June 18, Ford will return to the classic endurance race to once again do battle with the grand touring establishment. Today, race organizer ACO (Automobile Club de l’Ouest) confirmed that four GT supercars have been accepted to compete. The cars will sport...

Ever since the good ol' days of Henry Ford and The Model T, our favorite American automaker has proved itself as nothing less than iconic. In just over a century, the brand has cranked out unparalleled variety, versatility, and -- of course -- value. Nothing says "'Merica" quite like a pick-up truck, and no one does pick-up trucks quite like Ford. The U.S. Postal Service just released a collection of 2016 stamps, featuring classic trucks -- most of which are Ford models, like the 1938 Ford International Harvester D-2, the 1948 Ford F-1, and the 1965 Ford F-100.
Are you a crafter or artisan? Have you ever considered selling the house or renting it out for part of the year, and touring the country in a RV, selling crafts or artwork in cities around the country? Many full-time crafters and artisans do this, finding it more cost-effective than renting rooms on the road.

Back in 1966, Ford shocked the world when the GT40 Mk.II took first, second, and third place, in the 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race. It defeated heavily favored brands like Porsche, and six-in-a-row winner, Ferrari. It was an unprecedented result that Ford is hoping to duplicate in 2016, on the…
