The Sandy Robotic Team recently celebrated its 15th anniversary this year.  The local group of high school students even qualified to compete in the VEX World Championships in Dallas, Texas. 

Sandy Robotics Team Logo

The team cam in 3rd at the Oregon State in the previous season.  The students are excited to experience the VEX World Championship that brings together the top 850 high school teams from around the world.  The season provides competition for over 20,000 teams from 25 different countries.  The experience brings lots of interactions with people from around the globe who have similar interests. 

Our local team is working to raise $8,000 to cover the cost of the trip.  The raised funds will be used for travel expenses, lodging, meals, and team registrations.  Gresham Ford is contributing with $100 donation at the Silver Sponsorship Level to help support our local youth.

Home Charging with the Mustang Mach-E

In the sprawling landscape of vocational career paths, the automotive industry stands as one of the most promising sectors for sustainable and high-paying jobs. Gone are the days where a four-year college degree is the only gateway to a successful, blue-chip career. Today, industry players like Ford Motor Company are not just recognizing the need for skilled technicians but also championing the cause by bolstering the pathway with apprenticeships, scholarships, and hands-on training. The Ford Technician Scholarship has emerged as a game-changer for those passionate about automobiles, offering a lucrative opportunity to set foot in the automotive world without the burdensome load of college debt.

Investing in the Future of Auto Tech

On March 4th, 2024, Ford Fund and Ford Dealers made a resounding announcement, signaling their intent to invest in the future of automotive technology. Their pledge of $2,000,000 in scholarship funding is an assertive move to fill the looming void of over 400,000 technician positions that will need to be manned by 2027. This isn’t just a philanthropic gesture; it’s a strategic investment in the individuals who will power the next wave of automotive innovation and sustainability.

The Ford Auto Tech Scholarship isn’t just a token gesture; it’s a robust initiative aimed at pumping $5,000 scholarships directly into the accounts of students who are girding themselves to take on the challenges of modern automobiles. This financial support isn’t a drop in the ocean—it’s a lifeline that can cover tuition, tools, and other expenses, ensuring that the transition from student to professional isn’t fraught with financial strain.

The deadline for this opportunity is a finger snap away, with August 31, 2024, marking the end of applications. For those ready to grab this chance, the techforce.org/fordfund portal is the virtual passageway to lucrative automotive careers.

 

Local Success Stories from the Driving Seat of the Scholarship

The impact of Ford’s scholarship program resonates on local floors too. A testament to its effectiveness can be found right in our backyard, where Mt Hood Community College ASSET program has been the crucible for turning out top-tier technicians. The success stories that line the walls of local workshops are not just anecdotes but inspirations for those standing at the crossroads of their career choices.

For any prospective applicants, don’t miss out on this paramount chance to forge a career in the auto industry. The need is great, the opportunities are boundless, and the time for action is now. Visit the Ford Fund website to get all the information and tools you need to kickstart your automotive dreams.

 

Why Pursue a Career in Auto Tech?

The allure of an automotive technician’s career is not steeped in just job security and financial remuneration. Beyond these pragmatic considerations, the role offers an arena for personal and professional growth, fueled by an industry that is in a perpetual state of transformation. With the advent of electric vehicles, smart technology, and sustainable practices, the landscape of auto tech isn’t just broadening—it’s becoming more exciting and environmentally impactful.

An automotive career is a gateway to a plethora of job roles, from service technicians and parts specialists to shop foremen and dealership owners. The pool of possibilities is rich, and the success stories are numerous. Perhaps the most compelling reason to take the plunge into auto tech is the satisfaction of problem-solving and the tangible sense of service to the community, as your work ensures the smooth operation of the machines that are indispensable to our daily lives.

 

Automotive Scholarships: Key to New Avenues

The importance of scholarships in vocational careers cannot be overstated. They serve as the fulcrum upon which merit and opportunity are balanced, providing the impetus for driven individuals to pursue their dreams in fields that are as critical as they are rewarding. The Ford Technician Scholarship is not just financial support; it’s a beacon that shines a light on the undeniable value of skilled labor in industries that drive progress and prosperity.

For those who have a passion for cars and a yearning for practical work, this scholarship is more than a detour from the traditional college path—it’s a lane to success that is just as valid and valuable. It’s a ticket to participate in an industry that prizes skill, dedication, and the unending spirit of innovation.

The road to an automotive career is ripe with scholarships like the one Ford has generously put on offer. For those ready to seize the steering wheel to their future, now is the time to accelerate toward these opportunities. The engine of the automotive industry is running, and with a Ford Technician Scholarship, you can ensure you’re in the driver’s seat.

Custom Order Your Electric F-150 Lightning Truck: The Future of Sustainable Trucking

The automotive industry is undergoing a significant transformation with the advent of electric vehicles (EVs), and one standout in this revolution is the customizability of electric trucks like the F-150 Lightning. As concerns about environmental impact grow and technology advances, the electric F-150 Lightning emerges as a powerful contender for those seeking sustainable yet robust transportation. Let’s delve into the world of customizable electric trucks and explore the perks they offer.

The Rise of Electric Trucks

Electric trucks are no longer a distant dream; they’re becoming a reality. With the F-150 Lightning, Ford has taken a giant leap in reshaping the trucking landscape. This section explores the emergence of electric trucks as a game-changer in the automotive industry.

Introducing the F-150 Lightning

The F-150 Lightning is more than just an electric truck; it’s a technological marvel. From its sleek design to its impressive performance, this section dives into the key features that set the F-150 Lightning apart from traditional trucks.

 

  1. Enhanced Comfort and Space:
    The Mach-E offers a more spacious and comfortable interior than the Model 3. Its SUV-like
    design provides ample front and rear passenger headroom, legroom, and shoulder space. The
    raised seating position also offers a commanding view of the road, enhancing the overall driving
    experience. The Mach-E’s quiet cabin, high-quality materials, and attention to detail also
    contribute to a refined and luxurious feel.
  2. Familiar and Intuitive User Experience:
    Ford has taken a customer-centric approach with the Mach-E by designing the user
    experience to feel familiar and intuitive. The inclusion of physical buttons and knobs, combined
    with the responsive SYNC 4A infotainment system, offers a user-friendly interface that is easy to
    navigate while driving. This intuitive design makes it easy for users to adapt seamlessly to
    Mach-E’s controls and features.
  3. Ford’s Extensive Dealer Network:
    Ford has an extensive dealer network, which provides customers with widespread service and
    maintenance support for their Mach-E vehicles. This established network ensures convenient
    access to trained technicians and authorized service centers. It can be particularly
    advantageous for customers who prefer a well-established support system with physical
    locations readily available.
  4. Exceptional Towing Capability:
    The Mach-E stands out with its impressive towing capability, allowing users to tow up to 4,000
    pounds (1,814 kg) when properly equipped. This feature makes the Mach-E suitable for outdoor
    enthusiasts or individuals who require towing capabilities for various purposes, such as hauling
    recreational equipment or small trailers. The Model 3, on the other hand, does not offer a
    dedicated towing capacity.
  5. Ford’s Legacy of Manufacturing Expertise:
    Ford Motor Company has a rich history in automotive manufacturing, and its expertise
    extends to the production of the Mach-E. Leveraging Ford’s manufacturing legacy, Mach-E
    benefits from the company’s extensive knowledge and experience in building reliable and robust
    vehicles. This legacy and expertise may instill confidence in customers, knowing they purchase
    an electric vehicle from a trusted and established automaker.
  6. All-Wheel Drive Availability Across Trims:
    Unlike the Tesla Model 3, which offers all-wheel drive (AWD) as an option only on higher-
    priced trims, the Mach-E offers AWD availability across its lineup. This means that even
    customers who opt for the base trim of the Mach-E can enjoy the benefits of enhanced traction
    and stability provided by an AWD system. It allows a wider range of buyers to experience
    AWD’s improved handling and performance.

In conclusion, the Ford Mach-E offers a compelling package with its enhanced comfort, intuitive
user experience, extensive dealer network, exceptional towing capability, Ford's manufacturing
expertise, and all-wheel drive availability across trims. These factors, combined with its unique
features and advantages mentioned in the previous article, make the Mach-E a strong contender in the electric vehicle market, providing customers with a viable alternative to the Tesla Model 3.
