At Pacifico Marple Ford LINCOLN, we know that the cost of sending a student to college can be expensive, especially in these tough economic times. Parents and students are looking to cut every cost that they can in the world of higher education, and for many poor college students, that means going without a sweet set of wheels.

Luckily, the people at Ford have thought of a solution that gives college students a vehicle that want at a price they can afford. Well, really, the people at Zipcars thought of it. They are, in fact, the largest car-sharing company in the country. How does Ford fit into this then? Ford is not just one of many suppliers to Zipcars, they're actually the single largest supplier of vehicles for them.

As such, Ford and Zipcars have actually entered into a partnership of sorts that will continue to sweeten the deal for any cash-strapped college student out there in need of a set of wheels. First, and foremost, Ford currently offers over 650 vehicles to be used at 250 campuses throughout the country. The lineup of cars to be shared includes top models like the 2012 Ford Focus and 2012 Ford Escape. And, next year, the total number of vehicles that Ford supplies is expect to grow to 1,000!

But, Ford's contribution to Zipcars doesn't end there. They continue to sweeten the deal by shedding $10 off of the annual fee for the first 100,000 new college students who sign up for the program. Of course, we should also mention that the annual fee to use Zipcars is only $35. And, the first 100,000 students to register will also get a one-dollar discount off of the hourly rate, during the first one-million hours spent sharing one of the participating new Ford models in the program.

But, if you're days of sharing are long behind you, then don't hesitate to check out the wide range of new Ford models that we carry by browsing our online inventory and showroom pages. Once there, you'll be able to have a deeper look at many of the vehicles that we proudly carry on our lot at 3015 West Chester Pike Broomall, PA 19008, such as the Ford Expedition and Ford Mustang.

But, if too much reading about topics like financing as well as maintenance throughout parts and service departments has got you feeling a little bored, then don't hesitate to opt for a more hands-on experience with your next car.
