Expect more from the full-ton market than mere strength. Instead demand safety with every mile - trusting the intuitive technologies of the 2020 F-250 to defend against collisions.
According to Edmunds, the new F-250 (which is scheduled for a late fall debut) will connect Alberta drivers to premium protection. Anchoring its chassis is a series of automated systems, which can observe, detect, and respond to changing environments. These include:
Lane Departure Warnings - sensors monitor marker positions and vehicle pitch, noting immediately when the F-250 veers from the path. Audio warnings are released, directing drivers to correct their trajectories and restore alignment.
Forward Collision Warnings - radar scanners map the surroundings, identifying both vehicles and pedestrians as they pass. If obstacles are detected at the front of the truck (and the driver makes no attempt to lessen speed), this system will then automatically engage the brakes and avoid a crash.
High-Beams - these halogen lamps activate when visibility is low, enabling drivers to experience steady light and wide-angle support. This improves performance on backroads and sharp turns alike.
The 2020 F-250 proves ready to protect passengers - offering a dynamic collection of safety features. To learn more about its available technologies (or to request information about financing opportunities) contact our team today.
Prepare, Alberta, for a new kind of hybrid experience. Images of the electric F-150 have been released - and they promise exciting changes for 2021.
According to Fox News, the F-150 Hybrid (which is scheduled to enter production sometime next year) will bring unprecedented performance to the market - with Ford pairing this pick-up with an independent rear suspension. No full-size truck currently in North America offers this feature, and critics anticipate that it will redefine the hauling experience. Ride quality will be improved, with pitch ratios automatically aligning to pavement changes; while a lowered spring rate will afford tighter cornering, allowing the platform to remain balanced. Traction will also be increased, courtesy of the seamless wheel connection.
Through this, the F-150 Hybrid will be able to better respond to rough terrains - enabling drivers to push past every obstacle with ease.
