Thursday, 26 May, 2022 The Ford Maverick pickup truck at Steet-Ponte Ford has some very practical and valuable safety features that can help keep drivers safe while driving in Yorkville, NY. Some of the safety features included in the Ford Maverick truck are the rear parking sensors, the rear-view camera, and the adaptive cruise control. The rear parking sensors can help to ensure that the driver of the Ford Maverick can park safely without having to look behind the vehicle. This allows the driver to stay focused on the road ahead and not have to be looking at where they are going to park the vehicle. Additionally, the rear-view camera helps the driver see behind the vehicle when they can't look out of the side window due to traffic or parked cars. This feature enables the driver to monitor what is happening behind the vehicle to see if there are any other vehicles or hazards.Take a Look at Our New Ford Inventory Take a Look at Our New Ford Inventory

Thursday, 10 February, 2022 The Ford Bronco is designed to make off-roading more accessible to anyone in Yorkville, NY who wants to experience it. At Steet-Ponte Ford, we are happy to point out the performance features that make off-roading so easy in a Ford Bronco. The first major performance benefit that you'll notice is the incredible ground clearance you'll have. If you opt for standard tires, you'll still have eight inches of ground clearance. If you want to upgrade your tires to 35 inches, you'll add three extra inches of ground clearance. This type of clearance can navigate rocky terrains, overgrown grass, and other dry landscapes that may give other cars difficulty. If it's wet terrain that has you worried, the Ford Bronco can help you safely travel over shallow bodies of water. You'll have up to 33.5 inches of water fording capability. Additional features that you can choose to add include skid plates, sway bar, and trail turn assist. Check Out Our New Ford Bronco Inventory Today! Check Out Our New Ford Bronco Inventory Today!
