Whether you're moving, hauling for work, or just on a road trip, your vehicle's ability to tow allows you to get even more use out of your vehicle. Ford has been creating towing champions for decades, and the new Ford Bronco Sport is no different. We’ve assembled this guide to help you get more acquainted with the Ford Bronco Sport and its towing features. more Ford Bronco Sport Capability Depending on which model you choose, you’ll have varying capabilities and available hardware with the Ford Bronco Sport. With the base trim’s 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine, you’ll be able to tow up to 1,500 pounds without breaking a sweat. To increase towing capacity, you’ll want to upgrade your engine to the 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine. The maximum towing capacity you can reach with this vehicle is 2,200 pounds with the upgraded engine and the addition of the Class II Trailer Tow Package. 2021 Ford Bronco Sport Towing Tips As with any towing excursion, you must distribute your cargo within the towing trailer properly to make driving easier on yourself. Keep a center of gravity low while also keeping 60 percent of your load towards the front of the trailer and the remaining 40 percent towards the rear. While on the road, take care while braking and turning. Allow much more distance when you begin slowing down, as the extra weight in the rear will carry your vehicle farther when decelerating. When turning, make sure to leave enough room to account for the curb. Towing a trailer can be an adjustment in itself, so it may be a good idea to take your vehicle out for a test spin before loading up. Now that you know how to tow like a pro, come on down to Mac Haik Ford Lincoln to take one of our Ford models out for a test drive. We look forward to seeing you soon!

There’s no need to compromise when buying a used car; i n fact, there are so many benefits to buying a used vehicle. more Affordability By buying used, you can get into a vehicle for much less. By making a smaller investment, you can have lower monthly payments, which can make a new-to-you car easier to budget for as well. You can utilize various online payment calculators to see just how low your payments could be. Cheaper Added Costs Affordability isn't the only reason to invest in a used vehicle. W hen a vehicle’s value is less, they are also cheaper to insure. Plus, you typically don’t need as much coverage for a used car as you do for a new model. A used vehicle is generally cheaper to register as well. Less Depreciation New car s start to depreciate as soon as they're driven off a dealership lot. In the first year alone, new cars can lose up to 30 percent of their value. After that, they continue to depreciate approximately 15 percent each year. This type of depreciation can result in a major loss of value, sometimes even resulting in new car owners becoming upside-down in their auto loans. Fortunately, you can avoid this decrease in value when you opt for a used vehicle that has already experienced depreciation. Plethora of Options Another benefit of buying used is all the options that are available to you. When drivers want to purchase new vehicles with limited budgets, they often feel that their new car options are limited. There are virtually limitless options available when you buy used. Here at Mac Haik Ford, we even carry vehicles that are priced under $15,000 and certified pre-owned vehicles that give you added peace of mind. Ready to get into a used vehicle?
