Wyatt Johnson Ford - 4 Reasons the 2018 Ford Super Duty Is the Baddest Boy in the Truck Market

Trucks need to be powerful, and nowadays, they also need to be stylish. The 2018 Ford Super Duty series of trucks, which includes the F-250, F-350, and F-450, go way beyond just meeting these criteria. With two powerful engine choices and multiple trim packages, you are sure to find a Super Duty truck that can tow pretty much anything you throw at it while being just right on the interior. Towing and Payload The Ford Super Duty lineup of trucks are the strongest available. Each model of the F-250 and F-350 comes standard with an extremely capable 385 horsepower 6.2-liter V8. If you want maximum torque and power, it is worth upgrading to the 6.7 liter Power Stroke diesel that makes 450 horsepower and a whopping 925 pound-feet of torque. The Super Duty can tow up to 34,000 pounds, so you can feel confident that if you want to bring it with you, you can. Towing isn't the only way the Super Duty carries more than the competition. The F-350 has a maximum payload of 7,630 pounds. more Interior Customization Trucks used to be the office of the working man, barren and only fitted with essentials for getting the job done. The Super Duty still offers that option, but also provides the opportunity to surround yourself in a luxurious interior. On the new Limited trim level, you'll get camelback two-tone leather front seats with heating, cooling, and ten-way power adjustability. Elsewhere in the cabin, you'll find ash wood accents, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and the Ford SYNC 3 system, including Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and navigation. Affordable Strength Not everyone needs a full luxury outfit, and that's another area where the Super Duty shines. You can get the same exceptional power and towing capacity in a stripped down package. A regular cab, long-bed F-250 XL with the Power Stroke diesel engine starts at only $42,270 MSRP. That is the beauty of the Ford Super Duty trucks, they can be a tool, a statement, or both. It is all up to you. Advanced Technology From an adaptive steering system to the class-exclusive Trailer Reverse Guidance system, the Super Duty incorporates technology that improves safety and convenience. The adaptive steering system, which is available on the XLT model and above, adjusts the steering ratio based on speed for an accurate turning in all situations. Super Duty simplified backing up a trailer with Trailer Reverse Guidance. The available system provides cameras in the side view mirrors and visual guides on the center dash screen to help you keep track of where the trailer is going. For added accuracy, the camera view is digitally extended into an overhead view to show the direction of the truck and trailer. Trucks are no longer a simple piece of machinery. The 2018 Super Duty offers all the brawn of a work truck with the refinement you've come to expect. Combine these qualities with advanced driver assistance technology and you have an undeniably great truck. Image by NeuPaddy, used under CCO 1.0

Wyatt Johnson Ford - 4 Ford Vehicles Your Business Needs ASAP

Having a reliable vehicle for your business is essential. It's important for getting you places on time. Commercial vehicles also handle the rigors of what you need to bring with you to make your business a success. Here are four Ford vehicles designed to handle your business needs. 2018 Transit Connect If you have a small business or a larger service-based business requiring employees to meet with customers in the field, the 2018 Transit Connect is a vehicle to look at. It's a compact van that's not unlike a minivan and can serve as a commercial or even consumer van. One of the advantages of the Transit Connect is that it has a car-like drive so it's a much more appealing vehicle for first-time commercial drivers. It offers a 169-horsepower 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine with a 6-speed transmission that keeps up in traffic. Overall, it is a practical pick for many business types that haul goods and seats up to five passengers. 2018 Transit CC-CA The Ford Transit CC-CA is the larger full-sized van designed to meet both the transportation and technology needs of business in a vehicle. It features GPS monitoring via Ford Telematics to help businesses keep track of their fleet vehicles. This particular vehicle model has multiple configurations in terms of length and engines. Use it solely for hauling cargo or seat up to 15 passengers. Engine options include a 310-hp twin-turbo V-6, 185-hp turbo-diesel inline-five with 350 lb-ft of torque, and a 275-hp V-6. All of these come with rear-wheel drive and a six-speed transmission. 2018 Super Duty A van is not always the most practical solution for a business, especially in industries like construction where the job often involves hauling heavy materials and visiting job sites. The 2018 Super Duty is capable of handling these challenges and more. For this vehicle, drivers can opt for the Power Stroke engine. This engine produces 925 lb-ft of torque and hauls an impressive 32,000 pounds making it ideal for the toughest of jobs. Technology helps too, with features like towing assist and emergency braking. The trim levels have all the features necessary for business and for comfort. 2018 F650 and 750 The larger F650 and 750 serve as the lifeblood for many companies around the country. These latest model trucks are easier to drive, and thanks to improved stability and traction control, sticking to the road is also much improved. Like the other Ford models, the F650 and 750 come with a variety of engine options including a 6.7-liter power stroke engine and a 6.8L gasoline V-10.  This medium-sized truck is capable of hauling trailers as well as equipment, making it suitable for many different industries. Businesses demand more from their vehicles and they must rise to the challenge each and every time. Ford understands this and provides vehicles like the ones listed here to fit any industry and a number of different needs.

Wyatt Johnson Ford - Don't Miss Out! Get These 4 Ford Models Before They're Gone

Ford announced that it is dropping passenger cars from its lineup in 2018. The vehicle market in the United States is moving away from sedans as consumers opt for crossovers. Ford is responding by meeting the growing demand for SUVs, crossovers, and pickups. It will keep only two cars, the iconic Mustang and the upcoming Focus Active. Here's what's being cut from the Ford lineup in North America. If you're considering buying one of these cars, hurry down to your nearest Ford dealer before they're gone. Taurus The Taurus is Ford's full-size sedan, first introduced in 1986 as a midsize sedan. It quickly became a successful car for Ford, selling over 2 million units by the end of its first generation. The Taurus went out of production for a few years and then brought back as a full-size sedan. Today the Taurus is a stately sedan. It has a spacious cabin with ample leg- and headroom and one of the largest trunks in its class. The 2018 Taurus has four trims priced from $27,690 for the base SE to $42,865 for top end SHO. Fusion The midsize Fusion sedan came on the market in 2006, just before the 2008 recession. The Fusion was well-received and exactly what the motor company needed to see it through the economic slump. It also became popular on the NASCAR track. If the Taurus is too bulky, you may find the midsize Fusion a better fit. Your trim choices are extensive with six trims and various engines, including gasoline, hybrid, and plug-in hybrid options. The 2018 model carries over from 2017 unchanged. The price difference is nominal; a base 2017  Fusion S cost $22,120 compared to $22,215 for a 2018 model. C-Max Hybrid If you're looking for a hybrid, grab the C-Max before it disappears from the market. The C-Max is a multipurpose vehicle (MPV) and best described as a tall hatchback. It's a bigger version of the Focus with spacious seating and a slightly larger cargo area. Its interior styling is also very appealing with good quality materials giving it a more expensive look and feel compared to similar vehicles in its class. The 2018 C-Max offers two trims: the Hybrid SE and Hybrid Titanium. If you're keen on a plug-in hybrid, get the 2017 Energi model discontinued in 2018. Fiesta The smallest car in Ford's lineup is the Fiesta, available as a sedan or hatchback. The Fiesta debuted in 1976 and has enjoyed robust sales through seven generations. The Fiesta remains a top seller internationally but sales are weak in the United States. However, for students and young people, it is an affordable vehicle priced between $14,205 and $15,735. Parents will like the MyKey feature that allows you to preprogram your teen's vehicle. You can restrict the top speed, set seat belt reminders, set a low fuel warning, and keep the audio volume low. Ford's decision to cut passenger cars wasn't an easy one. However, to continue producing sedans and small cars no longer makes financial sense, and Ford hopes to cut costs by as much as $25.5 billion by 2022. The C-Max is the first to go — production will end mid-2018. The phasing out of the other three cars will happen in 2019. Image by hpgruesen, used under CCO 1.0

road trip with phone holder

Wyatt Johnson Ford - Which Ford SUV Should You Take On a Summer Road Trip

Ford offers a range of SUVs in several sizes and styles. None of them have the gas mileage of a subcompact sedan or hatchback, but in exchange they have extra space for more passengers and cargo, more power for towing, more durability for unpaved roads and trails, and they have more road-trip friendly features like backseat entertainment systems. Which one is best for you depends on what type of road trip you are going on. EcoSport: For the Small Family The EcoSport is a subcompact crossover, which means it is bigger than the subcompact Ford Fiesta hatchback, but smaller than any of Ford's other crossovers. Still, it offers 20.9 cubic feet for cargo behind the second row, and you can make full use of it thanks to a clever cargo management system. You also get the SYNC 3 infotainment system on every trim. The EcoSport is the best Ford SUV for road trips with small families or when you want to go on a trip with just a couple of friends. more Escape: For the Driver Who Loves Driving The Escape is Ford's compact crossover. For cargo space it has around 34 cubic feet and all three engines are efficient four-cylinder designs. The top turbocharged engine delivers 245 horsepower, an impressive number for its 2.0-liter size. The Escape is the best option when the driver enjoys going on winding country roads or scenic mountain byways, because it handles the best out of any SUV that Ford offers. Edge: For Affordable Comfort The Edge is one of Ford's midsize crossovers. The Explorer is in the same class, but the Edge is bigger and has three rows of seats instead of two. This means that it has more cargo space when all the seats are up, plus it offers conveniences like EasyFold second-row seats and a hands-free liftgate. You can also get an 8-inch touch screen with cellphone compatibility when you buy the right trim. The Edge has plenty of room for its passengers, cargo, and accessories. While it costs more than the Escape and EcoSport, The edge is worth the investment for many families. Expedition: For Big Families While the EcoSport sits at the small end of the spectrum, the Expedition sits at the top. The Expedition uses the F-150 frame as its base, making the Expedition stronger than you would expect and giving you plenty of space in the back, even when all the seats are up and eight people are sitting in them. As a large SUV, the Expedition also comes with all the features and accessories you would expect from a big vehicle. This can include a rear seat entertainment system, a fun way to keep the kids busy during a long drive. Ford makes a few other SUVs beyond the ones on this list, but this gives you a good idea of the versatility Ford offers drivers when you are looking for a vehicle to take on that next summer road trip. Whatever you are looking for, Ford has a vehicle for you. Image by DariuszSankowski, used under CCO 1.0

ford performance mustang

Wyatt Johnson Ford - Hit the Road in a Ford Performance Vehicle

Ford produces vehicles fit for every type of driver, and that includes drivers who like to have the best engines and high-performance parts under the hood. However, even drivers looking for performance have different needs and wants.  Ford offers performance trims and options throughout its vehicle lineup to meet the various needs of these drivers. Fiesta ST The Fiesta ST is the performance trim of Ford's subcompact car. Compacts and subcompacts are popular among racers, thanks to their low starting cost and nimble handling. Another advantage is that the replacement parts and mods are relatively inexpensive. The Fiesta ST gives racers a head start on their fully modded car by including things like sport front seats with bold colors and ST branding, a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine that delivers 197 horsepower, sport-tuned suspension, and advanced Electronic Stability Control with Torque Vectoring Control. more F-150 Raptor The F-150 Raptor is a performance trim for the most popular truck line in America. The F-150 Raptor is a full-size pickup and is not meant to behave like a sport car. Instead, it has amazing performance on off-road courses. The Raptor has a lifted frame to give it a steeper angle of approach and ramp breakover angle. It also comes with a unique engine that delivers 75 more horsepower and 40 more pound-feet of torque than the next-best engine, and that is despite having the same size and cylinder count. Mustang Shelby GT350 and GT350R For many people, the Ford Mustang is the classic example of a muscle car, and Ford has been producing them continuously since the 1960s. Low-end Mustang models are surprisingly affordable and still give you that Mustang feel. However, if you want the best Mustang around, then the Shelby models are your best option. The GT350 comes with a powerful engine, sport seats, and the famous Shelby Cobra on the front. Ford made the GT350R ready for serious racing by adding carbon-fiber parts and dropping many accessories to make the vehicle as light as possible. GT If you want a top-notch performance vehicle and money is no object, then you should have a look at the Ford GT. This vehicle cut its teeth with Ford's racing team, and comes with things like a largely carbon-fiber and aluminum body, a 3.5-liter V-6 engine that delivers 647 horsepower, and a body design perfected in a wind tunnel. If you want the absolute best performance Ford can offer, you should see if you can get yourself a GT. Ford's performance lineup includes all the vehicles you would expect and more. If driving means more to you than getting to your job, dropping off your kids, and picking up groceries from the store, then a Ford performance vehicle might be just the thing you need to feel the road and get the most speed out of every curve. Whether you choose a compact car, sports car, supercar, or pickup truck, just remember to drive safely while you're sharing the road. Image by Designbymickey, used under CCO 1.0

Wyatt Johnson Ford - Hit the Tennessee Whiskey Trail This Summer

Tennessee is famous for its whiskey distilleries. Jack Daniels and many other well-known brewing companies call Tennessee home, and they offer tours of their facilities for interested visitors. You can travel to all of these distilleries separately, but planning the trip can be a bit cumbersome. That is why many of the distilleries in Tennessee banded together to create the Tennessee Whiskey Trail. It is a guided tour of the leading distilleries in the state, and you can check out it out when you are in the area. Here's a look at why you should hit the Tennessee Whiskey Trail. Sponsored by the Best The laws regarding distilleries were relaxed a bit in recent years, which led to an increase in the number of distilleries. Right now, Tennessee is experiencing a major boom in whiskey distilleries. To capitalize on this, the Tennessee Distillers Guild decided to create something similar to Kentucky's bourbon tour system. more Developed by several local distilleries, the Whiskey Trail ensures that the thousands of tourists who visit the distilleries each year can enjoy the best Tenessee has to offer, including Jack Daniels, Chattanooga Whiskey Co, and more. Visitors can plan their own trips, but that involves making arrangements at each distillery separately. To make it more convenient and enjoyable, the leading distilleries banded together to help tourists visit all of the facilities in a more ordered fashion. Get the App To help you plan and manage your trip, The Tennessee Tourism Department developed the Tennessee Whiskey Trail app. In it, you can find all of the information that you need to plan your trip and schedule your tours. The app also has information about the area that you need to plan other excursions besides your whiskey distillery tours. There is More to do Outside of the Distilleries When you plan your trip of the Tennessee Whiskey Trail, make sure that you take advantage of everything else that Tennessee has to offer. While you are touring the distilleries, you can find great restaurants to stop at like the Frothy Monkey coffee shop or the historic Old Mill Restaurant. Get back to nature with a hike through the Smoky Mountains and Townsend mountain trails, or visit Smoky Mountain Harley-Davidson. Tennessee is also a music capital, and there are plenty of places to find great live music and music history. Drop by the Country Music Hall of Fame or put your dancing shoes on and stop in at any of the live music venues on Honky Tonk Row. If you are into good whiskey, then you should plan a trip through the Tennessee Whiskey Trail this summer.
