The all-new 2021 Bronco is nearly set for release, and Ford fans everywhere are getting an official taste of what to expect this upcoming Monday, July 13, when the Big Blue Oval brand shows off the fruits of years’ worth of labor on National Geographic, ESPN and ABC at 8 p.m. EDT. Ahead of that reveal, here are some fun facts about the Bronco:

Since Ford first ended production of the machine back in 1996, the Bronco’s popularity as a collector’s item has continued to grow. Since Ford’s announcement in January 2017 that the Bronco would make a return, valuation has shot upward. The Barrett-Jackson Auction Company now claims that first-generation Bronco valuation has doubled in three years, from $39,763 to $74,820. 

 

Hagerty says the 75.8-percent gain in valuation is among the highest of any collectible SUV in the past three years.

To date, the Bronco has been featured in more than 200 songs and greater than 1,200 films.

We’ve been crowing about all the excellence the all-new 2021 F-150 brings to the table for drivers in Penticton and throughout B.C.—and we’re not quite done yet. The truck, revealed this past week by Ford and actor Denis Leary, is set to shake up the automotive space with a focus on both performance and functionality.

This new truck is packed with a 3.5-liter PowerBoost V6 engine that’s a full hybrid system generating the most torque and horsepower ever seen in a light-duty full-size pickup. As a result, you’re also going to benefit from a maximum towing number of 12,000 pounds. Further, there’s an EPA-estimated range of approximately 700 miles.

 

On the exterior, available LED headlamps and taillamps light the way. Also available are full-length extended power running boards complete with a kick switch for enhanced accessibility. On the interior, an available new 12-inch digital gauge cluster puts all your vehicle’s information up-close and at-a-glance, with improved graphics and animations.

We’ve been discussing the debut of the all-new F-150 this week, waxing poetic about the advancements the truck brings when it comes to power and productivity. However, there is also a spate of exterior and interior additions and changes that elevate the design of this machine even further.

The all-new F-150 is set to dazzle in Penticton thanks to the new exterior changes, including fresh tailgate appliqués. More notably, there are now 11 grille options—yes, eleven!—available across the series lineup, affording owners a higher level of customization and dynamism than previously seen in the lineup.

 

Things really kick into high gear within the interior of the all-new F-150. On the XLT series and above, there’s now a 12-inch center screen—the largest-ever for an F-150. This display enables owners to split the screen and access/control multiple functions at the same time, ranging from navigation to music to additional features. Multi-tasking has finally arrived!

Call us at Skaha Ford now to discover more about the all-new F-150.

 
This past week, Ford debuted their all-new, reimagined F-150 in a special event hosted by actor Denis Leary. The truck comes with a supremely powerful 3.5-liter PowerBoost full hybrid V6 engine that we detailed in our previous blog post here. But the new pick-up isn’t just powerful—it’s made for productivity.

The all-new F-150 comes with an available Tailgate Work Surface at the rear of the machine that boosts productivity, as does the available Interior Work Surface, the latter of which makes operating a computer or even eating a quick meal on-the-go much easier. The available Pro Power Onboard™ enables drivers to leave their generator at home, as there is enough built-in boost to power 28 average-sized refrigerators—or an entire job site, in other words.

 

Need to take a break in-between all that work? The new F-150 comes with Max Recline Seats that move back nearly 180 degrees, enabling owners to take a much-needed nap when they experience downtime. Also, the connectivity of SYNC® 4 provides for future over-the-air updates that will further enhance productivity.
