How Parts from the Dealership Differ from Third-Party Replacements

While getting your auto parts from a discount shop could save you some money today, it doesn't make sense to have to spend the same money twice when the parts fail in no time at all. These are a couple reasons why the only choice for genuine auto replacement parts should be the dealership.

The parts sold at the discount shops are bought from the lowest manufacturers, so the price is a priority over quality. Many of those replacement parts don't fit correctly, so you could be causing more damage to your vehicle than you realize. All the…

Take it from an Air Traffic Controller: Spatial Awareness is Key

Amber Hegland knows the importance of having a full 360-degree view of your surroundings. In her line of work, spatial awareness is a life-or-death matter. She's an air traffic controller for the Federal Aviation Administration.

"The limits of human visibility can only take you so far," she says. With just your eyes alone, you cannot be aware of what is in front of you, behind you, and to your sides at the same time. In air traffic control, it is important to know not only where all aircraft are, but also to project a path of where they are…

Lincoln Launches 'It's Like That' Campaign Starring Matthew McConaughey

What does it feel like to drive an exhilarating premium midsize sedan like the 2017 Lincoln MKZ? Matthew McConaughey and director J.C. Chandor have teamed up with Lincoln to try to convey that feeling in a brand new series of ads starting this May.

Perhaps the razor-sharp cornering of the MKZ reminds you of the precision and relaxation of a professional straight-razor shave at the barber. Or perhaps it's like the refreshing feeling of taking a first dive into a pool.

What about the feeling of sitting in a jazz club, surrounded by musicians, right on the ground…

22-Way Adjustment Makes the Lincoln MKX Multi-Contour Seats an Ergonomist's Dream

When you spend a long time behind the wheel, the comfort of your seats becomes paramount.

A standard seat pan depth on a North American car is between 17 and 22 inches. If you are taller than average, the edge of the seat can hit you mid-thigh, which can create an uncomfortable pressure point, explains ergonomics expert, Marc Turina.

"I was originally a physical therapist," he says, "then I started to think to myself, 'why am I waiting around for people to get hurt and then trying to fix them?' and I transitioned into the preventative side of things, and…

The Ford Fusion is hard to beat out

Poor Ricky! In the humorous clip below, we find out he comes to the unfortunate realization that his girlfriend, Tina, is just way more satisfied by her 2016 Ford Fusion than she is by him.

Guillermo, Tacos and the Ford Focus

How do tacos and the Ford Focus go together? Well, when you put Guillermo inside a Ford Focus and ask him to make tacos from a tray balanced on his lap, you’re sure to get laughs. Little did the comedian know that his driver, Prestin, was not an actor as he was told, but a stunt car driver.

Hilarity ensues as Prestin takes hard turns with the car and Guillermo loses most of his taco ingredients all over the interior. What a mess!

For Sound Pure Enough to Change Your Brainwaves, Look for the Lincoln MKX

The Revel Ultima sound system is quite possibly the most advanced audio system available on four wheels.

Should it matter to you, if you don't consider yourself an "audiophile"?

No matter who you are, music has a major effect on your brain. Just think about your morning routine. You drag yourself out of bed. Zombie-like, you make coffee using muscle-memory alone. Then you get in the car to drive to work, and put on some peppy music.

Finally, you feel awake.

There's no mystery there: science shows that our brainwaves try to synchronize with rhythmic music. That high-tempo…
