2015 F-150 Tests at Bald Mountain Gold Mine

WESTLAND, Mich - Ford Motor Company's first aluminum-bodied 2015 F-150 Tests at the Bald Mountain Gold Mine in Elko, Nevada to see if it can handle some torture trail runs from one of its most demanding customers, the mining industry. Bald Mountain, owned and operated by Barrick Gold Corporation, is an open-pit, heap leach gold mine located in the Southern Ruby Mountains of northwest Nevada. The site is frequently used to experiment with Ford's latest F-150 trucks; in fact, Bald Mountain will be responsible for roughly 200,000 of the 10 million miles of testing done on the 2015 F-150 before it rolls off the assembly line.

Remember when you see the all-new 2015 F-150 on the road this fall, if it can handle the mining industry, it can handle anything. You can see footage of the 2015 F-150 Testing at Bald Mountain Gold Mine here:

Ford Volunteers Care for Environment on Ford Accelerated Action Day

WESTLAND, Mich - In case you missed it, last Thursday, June 5th, was World Environment Day! It also happened to be the day that Ford Volunteer Corps headed out to various locations around southeast Michigan working on community environment projects. Ford Volunteers Cared for the Environment on Ford Accelerated Action Day by planting urban vegetable gardens, installing watering systems, constructing storage sheds and landscaping the grounds of nonprofit organizations. The Ford Volunteer Corps contribute their time and efforts to several local communities throughout the year and around the world. In fact, during the month of September, thousands of Ford employees gather on six continents during Ford Global Week of Caring and participate in community service work in their cities, towns and villages.

Roughly 500 Ford employees participate in over three dozen community service projects that have been developed by Ford's nonprofit partners. Agencies shared $46,000 in Ford grants to purchase tools, plants and other supplies needed to complete the projects. The nonprofit partners throughout southeast Michigan that received up to $5,000 in grants for the day's projects were:

• Alternatives for Girls, Detroit – Built garden shed, painted and decorated child care room
• Arbor Hospice, Ann Arbor – Created self-watering planting areas and prepared gardens
• Boy Scouts of America, Metamora – Rebuilt yurts and dwelling structure for rustic camping
• Community Living Centers, Farmington – Painted office
• Detroit Rescue Mission Ministries, Highland Park – Installed drip irrigation system and planted urban garden
• Detroit Zoo, Royal Oak – Transformed Great Apes habitat entrance into story circle
• Habitat Macomb, Mt. Clemens – Constructed sheds, picnic table and paint restore
• Habitat Monroe, Monroe – Landscaped three new homes
• Haven, Pontiac – Removed carpet and prepared for new carpet installation
• Henry Ford Estate, Dearborn – Planted native trees and installed garden benches
• International Wildlife Refuge, Grosse Ile – Built accessible overlook deck
• Liberty Hill Housing Corp., Detroit and Westland – Landscaped and cleaned up yards

• Starfish Family Services, Inkster – Host year end celebration for students and families
• St. Vincent de Paul, Detroit – Installed bookcases and slat walls at thrift store
• Vista Maria, Dearborn Heights – Planted trees and landscaped campus

Ford Volunteers Cared for the Environment on Ford Accelerated Action Day not only by painting, planting and rebuilding, but also by teaming up with Ford Green IT to collect unused computers, printers and other electronic equipment to be recycled. After last years collection of e-waste, more than 63,000 pounds were able to be recycled and kept out of landfills!

Grilling Tips and Recipes for Your Next Summer BBQ

WESTLAND, Mich - Summertime is full of some of our favorite activities -bonfires, boating and best of all.....BBQs! If you haven't already, it is time to break in the good ole grill and start cooking up some delicious summertime meals. We have got you covered for grill season with our Grilling Tips and Recipes for Your Next Summer BBQ! Don't forget, you can find these tips, recipes and so much more on our Pinterest page! 

Grilling Tips:

• Clean it Up - Brush off your grill while it is still hot with a long-handled wire grill brush. Also, you can reduce food sticking to your grill by rubbing a vegetable oil-soaked paper towel over the hot grill racks with tongs.
• Keep it HOT, HOT, HOT - It is important that your grill is preheated 15 to 25 minutes prior to cooking. This will ensure that your grill reaches the appropriate temperature and kills any left over bacteria. High heat should reach 400-450°F, medium heat 300-350°F and low heat 250-300°F. 
• Chill Out for a While - Once the meat has finished cooking, it is always a good idea to cover it with foil for about 10 minutes. All of the juices in the meat will have time to redistribute evenly and will result in an extra tasty meal for you!

Now that we have some of the basics out of the way, how about some great recipes to try out this summer? We've got a few ideas that are bound to be a hit with any crowd and are super easy to follow. Check them out:

Mesquite Grilled Turkey Burgers

A healthy alternative to a beef burger and just as delicious! The key to perfecting these burgers -moisture and shiitake mushrooms. 

Grilled Chicken Fajita Kabobs

The best part about kabobs is you can make them in advance and grill them when you are ready to eat. If you like a little spice, you will LOVE these Grilled Chicken Fajita Kabobs!

Chili-Rubbed Pork Chops with Grilled Pineapple Salsa

One word, YUM! These tender chops are complimented so well with the tangy salsa. This is a MUST try!

Kung Pao Chicken Skewers 

Another spicy dish, but definitely delicious. The smokiness from the grill is very fitting with the Kung Pao sauce, making for one flavorful dish!  

 Keep these Grilling Tips and Recipes for Your Next Summer BBQ in mind! We wish you all a safe and happy summer! Enjoy!
