Check Out the Rip-Roaring Off-Road 2017 Ford Raptor F-150

WESTLAND, Mich.,––If you're someone who likes to rip it off-road, the 2017 Ford Raptor is worth looking at! The Raptor has officially made a comeback from it's brief hiatus in 2014 and will be available this Fall. The new cutting-edge terrain management system and unique AWD/4WD transfer case is a feature that'll take your daily driving to the next level, and your off-road driving off the charts.

When Ford first announced a new Raptor, the new design and powerful engines were the big selling points; however, there's so much more the behold. The terrain management system and transfer case are completely unique to the 2017 Ford Raptor F-150 and have now become the focus of the media. The goal of Ford's innovative team was to improve the daily driving experience, while cohesively offering the ultimate off-road experience.

The terrain management system is enabled by the dual-mode transfer case that uses both AWD and 4WD systems and electronic lockers for better distributed power to the front and rear wheels - in direct response to the terrain the Raptor is experiencing. With the 6.2L V8, you'll get up to 450 hp and 510 lb-ft of torque, in the best way possible! The 2017 Raptor also comes with maximum traction 17" BF Goodrich All Terrain KO2 tires, which have been specifically designed for this truck. Bonus: it's really nice on the inside.

"With the clutch-based feature of the transfer case, drivers can travel on-road using the 4x4 auto setting, which delivers the benefit of four-wheel drive without the repercussions of component damage or driveline binding – something that can occur when drivers try to use mechanically locked systems on high-traction surfaces like pavement."

Ford specifically calibrated the automatic 4WD to specific road surface conditions, so the transfer case can alter the clutch torque to best fit the environment. With the terrain management system, drivers can select weather modes to finely tune their driving experience, or rely on the Raptor's default electronic shift-on-the-fly system.

If you're someone who desires a better driving experience all around, or more power off-road, we recommend you check out the rip-roaring off-road 2017 Ford Raptor F-150! While you're waiting for this unique and powerful truck to make it to the market this Fall, you can take a look at our large selection of 2017 Ford F-150s online or in person to get a better feel for the quality and innovative features you'll get in the Raptor.

2018 Ford F-150 Will Be a Game Changer

WESTLAND, Mich.––The North American International Auto Show has officially kicked off this week, and the news is pouring in with details and photos about upcoming vehicles and concepts. One vehicle that has heads turning is the newest Ford F-150 pickup! The 2018 Ford F-150 will be a game changer with its new transmission and engine options. Let's take a look at what's to come from Ford.

The announcement of the 2018 Ford F-150 came with a date of expectancy: this coming fall. Yes, that quickly we'll see the new F-150 on the roads. You'll notice in the photos new grille and wheel options, which is just a part of the new design. New LED lighting will appear at the rear, along with LED lights in the bed, and spotlights on the side mirrors that'll help with late-night work. 

This new version of Ford's light duty F-150 will come a high-strength alloy body and fully boxed ladder frame to remain light and able to tow loads bigger than ever before. The advanced safety and driver assist features like adaptive cruise (good while towing), intelligent idling, auto start-stop, and pedestrian detection only add to the entire driving experience and efficiency and will provide drivers more confidence.

Speaking of confidence, the new 10-speed transmission should make drivers feel more confident in towing, because this trans will help provide faster and smoother 'get-up'. The biggest news to come out of this announcement was the new engine options that'll come with the 2018 model. Within the 7 models you'll be able to choose from, you'll find a new standard 3.3L Ti VCT V6, a 2.7L EcoBoost, a 5.0L Ti VCT V8, 3.5L EcoBoost, and a 3.0L Power Stroke Diesel.

We're so excited for all of the new Ford vehicles to come in the next few years, including the game changer 2018 Ford F-150, the 2020 Ford Bronco, and 2019 Ford Ranger! Although we can't stop thinking about the future, we're just as excited about the present. Ford continually provides an amazing lineup of vehicles, including the 2017 Ford F-150, the 2017 Ford Escape, and 2017 Ford Fusion Sport that we'd love to show you at our dealership on Ford Rd.!

Better Fuel Economy is Just an F-150 Away

WESTLAND, Mich.––Finding a great deal on the truck of your dreams may be a priority, but considering the long term cost of ownership should be among your thoughts when going to purchase of lease a vehicle. Ford has been consistently innovating to bring its customers better vehicles, better features, and better gas mileage. Going further on a gas tank is important to Ford, and better fuel economy is just an F-150 away.

The 2017 F-150 models boast EPA-estimated ratings 2mpg higher than 2016 year models thanks to the new 3.5L EcoBoost engine. The 2016 F-150 offered 17/24/20mpg city/hwy/combined, and the 2017 F-150 will get 18/25/21mpg city/hwy/combined. However, this year the F-150's engine will be combined with the very first production 10-speed automatic transmission. This type of transmission will offer more smooth gear switching, enhanced performance, and a quicker 'get-up'. Better low-end and peak performance is what you'll see with the 10-speed pairing.

The all new adaptive-shift scheduling system will provide a more engaging driving experience. This is thanks to the shifting algorithms which take in real-time data from powertrain and driver control signals to ensure the right gear is being used at the right time. This will give towers and haulers more confidence. The weight-loss in the 2017 Ford F-150 is a big catalyst in the improved shifting performance. The 10-speed gearbox uses alloy and other advanced material to help the truck shed some pounds and reduced the overall packaging footprint, which is just one of the thousands of ways Ford is working to reduce, reuse, recycle, and sustain.

The fun of improved performance isn't just for the new 10-speed/EcoBoost engine pairing, it's also for the 2nd generation 3.5L EcoBoost V6 engine. The new V6 will receive a boost in horsepower by 10. The total numbers for this engine actually beat out the diesel and gasoline competitors, including V8 engines. The second generation V6 can achieve 470 lb-ft of torque, and 375 hp.

If you're interested in checking out a 2016 Ford F-150, which will be offered for $244/mo through the end of October, we've got plenty for you to look at. We'd be happy to give you a test drive so you can see what the EcoBoost engine has to offer! You can check out our Ford F-150 model overview page to get a feel for each option available or start shopping now by viewing our online inventory. If you've got an F-150 that you want to keep running well, make sure to take care of routine maintenance and Fall Car Care before the winter season arrives.
