Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear. I’m Fred Fishkin. To celebrate America’s 250th, Ford has brought an exhibit to Union Station in Washington DC titled Driving America Forward.

“Entertainment, the movie Mustangs, the Explorer that’s in Jurassic Park. We’re covering a lot of those with artifacts rather than with vehicles.

There’s lots more. And you can check out the FordHeritageVault.com site for more fun.
