Auctioning off the first and sometimes final production-spec version of a popular vehicle has become a common yet highly successful method of generating cash that s often donated directly to charity. Past examples include the first 2020 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and the last Dodge Challenger Demon and Viper, which sold for a combined $1 million. And now Barrett-Jackson has announced the first 2021 Ford Bronco and 2021 Mustang Mach 1 will be auctioned off during its Scottsdale, Arizona event scheduled for March 20-27, 2021.
Proceeds from Bronco VIN 001 will be given to the National Forest Foundation and Outward Bound. Both organizations are part of the Blue Oval s Bronco Wild Fund initiative that aims to connect people with the outdoors. The Bronco, quite obviously, is ideally suited for the outdoor adventure lifestyle.

Washington, January 20 (BBC): Kamala Devi Harris, born to a Jamaican Economist and an Indian Tamil cancer researcher, will make history when she takes the oath of office on Wednesday, becoming the first woman and first black and South Asian American to serve as US vice-president. Harris’ Domestic Policy Advisor is Rohini Kosoglu, daughter of a medical doctor of Sri Lankan Tamil origin. This is the first Indo-Lankan-American combo in the history of the White House.
Here’s what awaits Ms Harris in her new job: What does a vice-president do? Historically speaking, not a lot. It has been described as the least understood, most ridiculed and most often ignored constitutional role in the federal government, and for a long time it stayed that way.
