Ford Broncos | Drive Direct in Columbus, OHThere’s nothing better than planning a summer road trip! Whether it takes you to the mountains for hiking, to the coast for a day at the beach, or to one of the amazing state parks for an outdoor adventure, summer is full of possibilities! Ford has the perfect lineup for a summer trip, with vehicles for any adventure. Read on for more details!

  1. The Bronco

When your idea of the perfect road trip takes you off the road, the Bronco is the Ford you need. The Badlands model takes off-road capabilities to the next level with a 2.3-liter turbo four-cylinder engine, a heavy-duty suspension, full-time four-wheel drive, and seven driving modes. It comes with rock rails, a rubber floor, and marine-grade vinyl upholstery. Choose any Bronco trim and you can turn your road trip into an open-air ride by removing the doors and roof.

  1. The Explorer

The three-row Explorer is perfect for a family road trip. It has room for up to seven people and their gear. This SUV has lots of tech and convenience features, including a power-adjustable driver’s seat, a split-folding second row, and an available power-folding third row. The higher-level trims offer massaging front seats, a larger 10.1-inch touch screen, and a surround-sound stereo system. The Explorer has a full suite of driver safety aids, including forward-collision mitigation, blind-spot monitor, and lane-keeping assist.

  1. The Escape

Choose the Escape for a road trip when you want something compact with a peppy and powerful engine. The hybrid model provides the fuel efficiency you want for a budget-friendly road trip, and no matter which Escape you choose, it offers the latest version of Ford’s SYNC infotainment system. This small SUV has more rear-seat legroom than others in its class and a spacious cargo area where you can keep all your gear. The second-row seats slide back and forth to create more cargo space when you need it or more legroom when you have extra passengers. An available hands-free foot-activated liftgate means you can access the cargo area without getting your keys out.

  1. The Expedition

The ultimate summer road trip includes all your family and friends, and you can take everyone along in the large Expedition. This Ford has space for up to eight and a massive cargo area with room for everything you need for an extended trip. A powerful twin-turbo V-6 engine easily powers the large Expedition and will tow up to 9,300 pounds. Inside, a power-folding third row makes it easy to access the cargo area, and upscale materials provide a luxurious ride. An 8-inch touchscreen comes standard, along with the SYNC 3 infotainment system, Wi-Fi, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. An optional rear-seat entertainment system is available for the top three trims.

The Expedition comes standard with forward-collision warning with mitigation and pedestrian detection and offers adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, and lane-departure warning.
