The sixth-generation Ford Mustang offers shoppers some exciting opportunities for the 2019 model year. The iconic 1960s-inspired Bullitt returns, and the California Special appearance package now graces the GT Premium trim. Celebrate the end of the year with the power and performance of a 2019 Mustang. Here are a few of its most appealing amenities that you don't want to miss out on. Powerful Performance If you're serious about power and performance, get the potent GT Premium variant. The four-cylinder EcoBoost engine is an exceptional day-to-day performer, but this pony car hits the fast track when equipped with the throaty 460-horsepower V-8 under the hood. Ford made the dual-mode active valve exhaust available on the EcoBoost engine. It's designed to make the Mustang's stock four-cylinder sound even more aggressive. This option adds a bit of fun for a reasonable cost, while the GT's manual transmission is now equipped with a rev-matching feature so you can downshift like a pro. more Athletic Handling The modern Mustang's road manners took a considerable leap forward when the entire lineup received an independent rear suspension. Bump its capabilities to new heights of engaging agility when you go ahead and add the Performance package. It sharpens up the Mustang's responsive handling and provides a thrilling drive that's comfortable enough for road trips. User-Friendly Technology Package Ford designed the new Mustang's Sync 3 technology package with logically laid-out controls and crisp graphics. This intuitive infotainment system is very approachable. It includes Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a Wi-Fi hot spot on the Premium trims, and you'll get two standard USB ports, voice control speech detection, and navigation. You'll also enjoy crystal-clear sound from the nine-speaker audio system and enjoy the praiseworthy 12-inch all-digital instrument cluster. Interior Features The Mustang's cabin blends a comfortable retro style with modern conveniences such as dual-zone automatic climate control. It's a more sophisticated car than ever before, and the cabin of this sports car is quite spacious for two passengers. It touts loads of head, leg, and room shoulder room, but it isn't the ideal vehicle for families. The back seat is small and impractical for regular use. Advanced Driver Safety Aids A variety of advanced driver safety aids are available for the 2019 Mustang, including the standard rearview camera and the Ford MyKey system. If you have a novice driver in the family, the MyKey system lets you set volume and speed limits for this operator. You can add an impressive number of available safety tools, such as rear parking sensors, adaptive cruise control, and forward collision warning. Other available features include automatic brake support, pre-collision assist, and blind spot monitoring. Opt for the complete suite, which comes with pedestrian detection, rear cross traffic warning, lane keeping helper, automatic high beams, and rain-sensing wipers. Do you feel the lure of a powerful engine and aggressive handling? Then take a look at the 2019 Mustang. It's a terrific choice for your next hot rod. Head to your local showroom today and see why you should end the year with the new pony car.
Standard Sport Utility Vehicles tend to have an average amount of cargo space. With work, families, and daily activities, we need more and more space while driving. Ford has acknowledged this need and adjusted the 2019 Explorer in response, both inside and out. Interior Cargo Space The first thing you want to know when you're looking at a new SUV is how many people it seats. Secondly, you want to know how much cargo space it has. The 2019 Ford Explorer seats seven people comfortably with third-row seating and has a whopping 80.7 cubic feet of space from the rear door to the first row of seats. Cargo space from the rear to the second row totals 43.8 cubic feet, and from the rear to the third-row seating, you still get 21 cubic feet of cargo space. With the overall height of the vehicle at exactly 70 inches, the Explorer isn't overly tall, and a width of 78.9 inches keeps this SUV right at average sizing. You won't feel like you're driving a large truck when you're traveling on the highway. more The second row of seats is a 60/40 folding split-bench, front-facing, manual-reclining cloth seat with manual fore and aft adjustments. You can put the smaller side down if transporting a long but not wide item, or you can put both sides down for full usage of the area. The third row has a fixed 50/50 split-bench cloth seat with two fixed head restraints. The seat folds manually into the floor and can be folded fully flat to use the full space for cargo storage. Each section can be reconfigured for your storage needs or to accommodate changes en route. Exterior Cargo Space Most mid-size SUVs don't focus on external storage when reconfiguring the model for the new year, but Ford has upgraded this additional cargo option with the 2019 Ford Explorer in consideration of customer needs and strengthened the options here as well. The dead weight hitch on this vehicle has a maximum trailer weight of 2,000 pounds. The Explorer also comes standard with trailer sway control to better facilitate your successful tow experience. The most underrated cargo space on SUVs is the roof storage. The Ford Explorer comes standard with roof rails, but this space is actually very versatile, and you can make it fit your lifestyle and needs. You can purchase a cargo carrier, roof box, roof basket, or cargo carrier bags to affix directly to the rails. If you're more into water sports, you can buy specific carriers for kayaks, paddle boards, canoes, surfboards, or a versatile carrier to be used for more than one type of item. When shopping for your 2019 Ford Explorer, be assured that this model year does, in fact, have a good deal of space that can be used for your lifestyle needs and is versatile in many ways. The large cargo space can be used for home improvement projects, family outings, sports equipment, shopping, traveling, and outdoor activities.

Are you looking for a new truck? Consider the 2019 Ford F-350. Its power, towing capabilities, and cabin luxuries are only a handful of the fantastic components that make it a great choice. To give you a better picture of the super duty truck, we've made this list of the top reasons you'll fall in love with the F-350. Power Modern trucks tend to have a lot of power, but sometimes you need that extra little boost to accomplish something special. The 2019 Ford F-350 provides that necessary power. When purchasing a new F-350, you have the choice between two engines, the standard 6.2-liter V-8 or a turbocharged 6.7-liter diesel V-8. If you'll be doing a lot of towing, go for the turbocharged engine. You won't be disappointed by the raw power. more Driver Assist Options One of the coolest things about the F-350 is the driver assist options. If you're like a lot of truck drivers and find yourself needing to haul something on the interstate for hours, you've probably been reluctant to do so. With any other truck, you would be correct in feeling that way, but not with the F-350. The adaptive cruise control can function when you're hauling up to 30,000 pounds, so those long drives will be made much easier. The F-350 also comes equipped with lane keep assist, blind-spot monitoring, and a rearview camera. Blind-spot monitoring can be adjusted for hauling a trailer, and the rearview camera can be mounted on your trailer to help with maneuvering into a parking spot. Comfort The cabin is spacious and upgradable to any comfort level, given the wide variety of trims available. Road noise is a thing of the past with the F-350, so you can enjoy a nice, relaxing ride without worrying about any clatter from outside. You won't notice much of a difference between the rides where you're hauling something and those that you aren't because the ride stays smooth. The leather front seats have memory functions and are adjustable in three different ways for lumbar support. The climate control function is an added bonus that helps makes rides even more enjoyable. Technology Ford's Sync 3 interface is a joy to use. It's intuitive, user-friendly, and provides drivers with multiple hands-off options. For example, the voice control option allows drivers to not only make phone calls but also sync to your Siri or Android voice prompts. You can even manage your navigation system through Ford's voice control options. And speaking of navigation, the large touch screen makes it easy to see where you're going. The tire pressure monitoring system alerts you when a tire is below the recommended pressure, and it can be set to monitor trailer tires, as well. Technology, assist options, and comfort set this super duty truck apart from its competition. Regardless of what you're searching for, the F-350 has something for everyone. If you still need more convincing, take the 2019 Ford F-350 for a test drive today!
