Ford Video Teases New Performance Version of Explorer SUV

A new edition of the Explorer will soon be revealed and Ford wants viewers to take a guess at what it is by carefully watching a 26-second long teaser video.

The mesh grille, dark alloy wheels and of course, the throaty exhaust sound, all point to a performance variant of the fifth generation Explorer.

We'll know for sure on Wednesday, March 28, as Ford will be revealing full details on its SUV model, which will probably make it to the 2012 New York Auto Show. For the time being, head past the jump to check out the clip for yourself.

Ford Mustang Drifts Over Cement Median and into Peugeot 107

Did the driver of this modded, fifth gen Ford Mustang attempt to drift on purpose or did he simply enter the turn a bit too fast and lost control of the car? Who knows.

The end result is that he (or she, we can't be sure) slid right over the cement median and crashed into a Peugeot 107 on the other side of the road. Bet the Peugeot driver didn't see this coming.

And if you haven't figured it out already from the dashcam-mounted camera, this accident took place in mother Russia.

The video awaits your curiosity right past the break.

Justice Served? Reckless Ford Focus Driver in Video Found Lying Upside Down

On Monday, we showed you a video of a thoughtless driver in a Ford Focus who endangered the lives of several people in Russia with his foolish road antics.

Today, we have an update on the story, courtesy of a Carscoop commentator who goes by the nickname 'europeon'.

Beginning with the video itself, as another reader pointed out, when the driver of the vehicle with the camera stops to confront the driver in the Focus, he asks the passenger if he should take a gun with him, which probably explains why the young man in the Ford goes from rock hard to velvety soft slithering back into his car…

And the Prize for the Most Reckless Driver Goes to…

Dashboard mounted car cameras are just about as common as snow in Russia giving us an insight on what your average driver has to deal with on a daily basis.

In the following video, you will find one of the most reckless drivers we've ever watched on camera – period.

We don’t know what went on before, but in the clip, we see the driver of a previous generation Ford Focus bypassing the car with the camera and then slowing down, accelerating and performing dangerous maneuvers on the road.

Not only does the Focus driver force the camera car to slide over to the side of the snowy road, but also an oncoming vehicle to do the same. And if that wasn't enough, he makes a 'U' turn and stops to confront the driver of the car he just pushed over!

Ford Unwraps 2013 F-Series Super Duty, gets New Plush Platinum Model Costing Upwards of $64k

Gas prices may be on the rise but Ford still enjoys a success with its F-Series Super Duty models. On Friday, the Blue Oval revealed the latest addition to the range, the 2013 F-Series Super Duty Platinum.

While Ford has not yet released pricing, the company said the plush truck will be positioned on top of the lineup meaning it will cost more than the current flagship model, the $64,030 F-450 Super Duty King Ranch.

"The F-Series Super Duty Platinum is the latest expression of Built Ford Tough truck luxury," commented Brian Rathsburg, F-Series Super Duty Marketing manager. "It has a distinct appearance and a long list of features to deliver a superior experience. Along with that, it has all of the capability F-Series trucks are famous for."

Pony Express: New Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 vs. Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca

Comparing the 2012 Chevy Camaro ZL1 with the latest Nissan GT-R is all fine and dandy and makes for a catchy headline but in the real world, few will disagree that there's only one rival and that's none other than the 2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca.

Motor Trend magazine took Detroit's new breed of wild pony cars and put them to the test around the Inde Motorsports Ranch in Willcox, Arizona to find out who's the real boss.

So which one is the better retro-nostalgic sports car; the Camaro ZL1 with its 580-horsepower 6.2-liter supercharged V8 or the Mustang Boss 302 with the Laguna Seca package and its naturally aspirated 444HP 5.0-liter V8?

Head past the break to find out which one wins this comparo in the video that follows.

Ford Shares New Photos and Video of B-MAX Small MPV

Only hours before the B-MAX makes its first public appearance at the 2012 Geneva Auto Salon, Ford has published a new image gallery and some B-roll footage of its entry in the European small MPV segment.

The B-MAX measures just over 4 metres (158-in.) in length that makes it 110mm longer than the Fiesta five-door hatchback upon which it is based but 320mm shorter than the new C-MAX.

Honey, I Don't How, but a Tree Just Came up and Hit my Car

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a new contender for the worst driver of the year award. Our challenger comes from Romania and she drives a bright yellow Ford Ka hatchback, which we have to assume was chosen because of its very compact dimensions and...tight turning radius.

Not that any of that helped the woman out in this incident which you have to watch in the video that follows right past the break.

Barrage of New Videos Detailing the Ford B-MAX Small Minivan Inside and Out

The way Ford's going on with it, there won't actually be much to reveal about its brand-new B-MAX at next week's 82nd Geneva International Auto Show.

The new B-MAX will hit European showrooms this September offering buyers a selection of diesel and petrol engines, including the firm's brand-new 1.0-liter turbocharged three-cylinder gasoline unit available in two states of tune, with 99HP (100PS) and 123HP (125PS).
