The company will unveil a new, two-and-a-half acre display, built from more than 360,000 pounds of steel, 31,000 sheets of plywood and 2,400 LED screens, to create the "Ford Motor Company experience" for show visitors in Detroit. The display, which will accommodate all of its brands, will house more than 80 cars. None hanging from the ceiling, however. More »
