It’s nearly Valentine’s Day! In case you missed the oodles of pink and red boxes of chocolates, flowery cards and diamond commercials, here’s a reminder that the day of romance is coming up next week.

For Terry Maxfield, this will mark a sad Valentine’s Day. Terry has recently lost the love of her life. No, we’re not talking about her husband or long-term romance, but her car. Terry sold her 1965 Ford Mustang—which she dearly loved—back to the original dealer.

When it comes to hitting the road, it's always good to have options.

The all-new Ford Fusion Energi for 2017 comes as either a plug-in or a plug-in hybrid. This model comes equipped with the MyFord mobile app, allowing you to monitor you vehicle's charge levels and scout nearby areas for charging stations -- no matter where you are.

With as many competitive technology and performance features as gas-run models in our new Ford lineup, this sedan provides a convenient driving experience for both seasoned environmentalists and those with a developing interest in sustainability.

Ford has been a committed player in the game since efforts to create more sustainable mobility began. With such a variety of options released in 2015 for drivers seeking more environmentally conscious models, choosing just one can be challenging. What are the benefits of all-electric as opposed to hybrid? What's the difference between hybrid and plug-in hybrid? Our sales specialists at Jim Schmidt Ford Inc. can answer these questions and more when you visit our store at 405 West High Street in Hicksville, OH.
