I love clearing snow off my car and getting into an ice cold vehicle. Said no one ever. Let's face it, winter driving is a bit of a chore. It's also the most dangerous time of year to drive with the elements stacked against us in every single way—ice on the roads, heavy or drifting snow and fewer daylight hours are just a few of the obstacles we face in the Great White North. Inevitably, as soon as the first snow falls each year, people forget how to drive. It's our responsibility to not let …
Time is A Luxury – Bend it to Your Will
I am not zen. I live by the work hard, play harder philosophy. Zen moments—that is moments where I am in the moment—are few and far between. Typically when I’m working I’m dreaming of playing and vice versa. The consequence is that I’m slightly frenetic. (I can hear the sniggering from here of those that know me well.) Funny then, that I should learn to embrace zen moments on a recent excursion with Ford Canada, when they invited me along on their Back to Basics weekend in Mont Tremblant. …
Cruising in The Ford Explorer
I like big cars and I can not lie, you other mothers can't deny, that when a Ford drives by with a sun roof opened to the sky, you get.....excited? happy? jealous? Hmmmm, maybe I'll leave the rapping to the professionals. It's true through, I like big cars. I try to convince myself that a small vehicle is the way to go and then I test drive a car like the Ford Explorer and there's no talking me down. From the moment I stepped in to the Ford Explorer I knew I was going to love this car. …
I Love Ford Flex
I love Ford Flex and I don't care who knows it. In fact, there was only one thought coursing through my brain when I took it for a test drive late this August. How far could I get before they noticed I wasn't coming back with it? Dreams of cruising down Route 66 filled my brain and I was giddy. Giddy I tell you. You see, the kind people at Ford Ottawa let me test drive this baby once before and I fell in love with it, but never wrote a post. I'm part slacker, part evil genius. They let me …
Test Drive Ford C-Max
The kind people at Ford Ottawa asked me if I’d like to test drive the Ford C-Max Hybrid. "Sure why not", I said. After all I’d recently test driven the Ford Fusion Eco-Boost and loved it. I not only managed to live without all the space of the mini-van, but didn't even miss it. Maybe it was possible that I’d cope just fine with a compact car, right? As it turned out there was a lot about this little car that I loved: Fuel Economy: The Ford C-Max gets a crazy 47 MPG! That's even higher …
