Ever since the first model was released back in 1966, the Ford Bronco has been a staple of Ford’s line-up. This SUV has dominated the off-road scene for over 50 years, and it also holds up great as a family car and for daily drives around town. Now, Ford has just released a new 2022 Ford Bronco, and it brings tons of new features that keep it fresh while still maintaining its rugged charm. Off-Road Capabilities Building off the previous Black Diamond model, the new Ford Bronco Everglades is designed to tackle the toughest of terrains. Many factory-installed features come as standard such as a high-power winch kit – perfect for getting out of sticky situations – and an air-intake snorkel that sucks in air from above your car while you are driving through deep water. Alternately, you can opt for the brand new Ford Bronco Raptor, a new design that is aimed at taking on the outdoors at high speeds. Using HOSS 4.0 Suspension with semi-active dampers, this model can soak up the bumps with ease and get you flying across off-road environments. Slide-Out Tailgate To allow for easier access to the rooftop storage, Ford has installed all new 4-door Broncos with a sturdy, easy-to-use slide-out tailgate. This can also double up as a table while you are out in the great outdoors, or even as a work surface should you need to do some work in the wilderness. Once you are finished with it, it easily slides away, so you don’t need to assemble or disassemble any parts. Lots of Cabin Space Compared to other SUVs in its class, the new Ford Bronco has them all trumped when it comes to the cabin size. Available in a 2-door model with 4 seats or a 4-door model with 5 seats, the cabin is always spacious enough for everyone, and it feels much more comfortable than other off-road SUVs such as the Jeep Wrangler. Ford CoPilot If you opt for the Mid Package, you will get access to the Ford CoPilot system. This high-tech system uses cameras mounted around and in-front of the car to inform you of traffic in your blind spot, apply the emergency brakes when necessary, and help to control your speed on highways. With so many great new features, it’s easy to see why the new Ford Bronco has got everyone talking. Whether you’re heading off-road or simply doing errands around town, this car is perfect for every occasion. If you’d like to see what all the fuss is about, come on down and visit us at Raystown Ford and we can organize a test drive for you.

And available LED project headlamps with Adaptive Dynamic Bending will give you a clear view of both the road and its curves by casting a wide beam that reveals everything around you. Safety Designed for Boldness The -F150 comes equipped with safety features that will give you back up when you need it while letting you stay in the driver’s seat. Standard features are lane departure warning, post-collision braking, traction control, and a rear-view camera with dynamic hitch assist to see what’s behind your vehicle. Choose to add other available safety features, like BLIS (Blind Spot Information System). Anytime a vehicle goes in the blindspot of your truck or trailer, you’ll be alerted.
