Jerry's Ford

Early next year, one of the safest vehicles will hit the market in the form of a 2013 Ford Explorer. Now, we know what you are probably thinking, with features such as MyKey and a blind spot alert system, the current Ford Explorer seems safe already. While this is certainly true, any parent will tell you that when it comes to protection, "good" just isn't good enough. That is why Ford has equipped the next Explorer model with safety features that go above and beyond what we've seen so far.

What has 380,000 miniature bricks, four wheels, a slick red and black coat, and weighs 2,654 lbs? If you guessed the brand-new LEGO Ford Explorer then you'd be spot on. Recently rolled off the line at the Ford Chicago assembly plant, the life-sized LEGO creation is the unique masterpiece of a combined 22 creative designers and 2500 hours of hard work.
