The new 2019 Ford Bronco will be based on the Ranger, but this test mule vehicle is a modified F-150 Raptor. And it doesn’t seem like Ford intends to release this special short wheelbase F-150. The 2019 Ford Bronco test mule is simultaneously cute and tough. One of the distinguishing characteristics of the original Ford Bronco was the condensed but tall proportions that made it an effective off-road vehicle.

Ford is committed to this new iteration of the Bronco having at least roughly similar proportions. The basic bumpers on the front and year of this Ford bronco test vehicle are a welcome alternative to the expensive and fragile plastic bumper caps that easily get scratched and cracked.

The big takeaway from this mule is the general size and proportions of the new Bronco, and both of these characteristics are spot on. It is not expected that these body panels to remain on the production model, though. Hopefully a unique front end will be designed for the 2019 Ford Bronco, ideally with rounder headlamps. This is a fun mule, but unfortunately this mule is destined to be crushed. Our Ford cars for sale includes the Ford Maverick, Ford Escape, Ford Expedition, Ford Bronco, Ford Transit, Ford Explorer, Ford F-150, Ford Mustang, Ford Ranger, and the Ford F-250. Reach out to our Ford dealership to schedule a test drive today.

Metro Ford of OKC is Blown Away by Ford’s Wind Energy Deal

The world is changing every day. Each day, Metro Ford of OKC wants to make this change easier for you. Let us get you into your perfect car for an unbeatable price.

We know our F-150’s are Oklahoma’s favorites, but they’re about to get better!

Your favorite trucks in 2020 will be made with wind energy. The Dearborn Truck Plant and the Michigan Assembly Plant are aiming to be 100 percent powered by renewable energy by January of 2021. Saving the planet first and building America’s best trucks second.

In January, Ford Motor Company announced an all-electric F-series pickup truck. The F-150 and Raptor trucks are assembled in the Dearborn Truck Plant, while the new 2020 Ford Ranger is built at the Michigan Assembly Plant. Thanks to Ford’s partnership with DTE Energy, Ford is fulfilling it’s promise to go green.

Ford has been one of the pioneers in the space of using alternate sources of energy. As early as 2010, Ford announced that they would reduce the amount of greenhouse gas emissions produced by their vehicle manufacturing 30% per vehicle by 2025. This is ambitious and inspiring, all the more reason to come see us at Metro Ford of OKC and get into the trucks of the future!

500,000-megawatt hours of wind energy is what it will cost to build the 2020 Raptor and Ranger. The number is big, but the smile on your face will be bigger knowing you are behind the wheel of a truck that will help save the planet!

Perhaps a truck isn’t what you are after. At Metro Ford of OKC, we have a vast selection of new and certified pre-owned cars and SUVs. We know one size doesn’t fit all. We encourage you to come and find your perfect fit with us!

Read more information on the new 2020 F-150s, Raptors, and Rangers!

All-Electric Ford Announcement from Metro Ford of OKC

Ford Motor Company has announced the launch of an all-electric version of a beloved F-series pickup truck. The announcement was made by Ford CEO Jim Hackett at the Deutsche Bank Global Auto Industry Conference on January 16, 2019.

Ford currently has three eco-friendly models with the 2018 Fusion Hybrid starting at $26,100 with 41 HWY MPG, the 2018 Fusion Energi starting at $31,120 with 91 HWY MPG, and the 2018 Focus Electric starting at $29,120 with 96 HWY MPG. The plug-in hybrid vehicles use a 240-volt outlet to recharge in under 3 hours.

If these three efficient Ford models are any sign, Metro Ford of OKC is sure we’ll be amazed by an all-electric Ford truck! We know that Ford is considering partnering with Volkswagen to produce electric vehicles in the near future and that a Mustang-inspired electric vehicle could predate the F-series pickup. There is no news yet about which F-series model will be graced with electric capabilities, but we’re hoping for the F-150 of course!

Ford’s all-electric truck will compete with Rivian’s R1T unveiled in November, 2018 and Tesla’s futuristic pickup truck still in the planning phase. Along with an all-electric F-series, Ford is also planning for a hybrid F-150!

Follow Metro Ford of OKC on Twitter and Instagram and like us on Facebook to stay updated on Ford’s shocking shift into an electric driven future! Metro Ford of OKC is your performance headquarters for all news Ford.

Members from our team were able to deliver the coats right after Christmas on Friday, December 27th just in time for the new year and 2019 winter weather! The staff and members of the City Rescue Mission welcomed our donations and we were beyond excited to help the homeless men, women, and children living at the shelter pick out their favorite coats and toys.

City Rescue Mission has been operating in Oklahoma City and beyond as a faith-based ministry for almost 60 years. The facilities host Bible study groups, on-site GED courses, job placement services, and more in order to help homeless individuals and families move past trying times.

Volunteers are welcome at the City Rescue Mission facilities from all OKC metro locations including Oklahoma City, Moore, Norman, Edmond, Yukon, Midwest City, Del City, Bethany or Mustang.

Back in the day, the Ford Ranger appeared as an unassuming short bed cab with low pricing and a lack of features. Sadly, the uneventful Ranger truck was discontinued in 2011 after bad reviews and diminished sales. Today, it’s a different story.

Ford announced a new 2019 Ford Ranger this year, built tough, ready for adventure, and totally customizable. The Ranger has been tested through blistering heat, freezing cold, and wicked terrain. But alas, it has earned the Built Ford Tough title and your respect.

• Steel framing
• Trail Control
• Terrain Management System with four shift modes to choose from
• Models range from the basic of XL, XLT, and Lariat to XL Chrome, STX,  XLT Chrome, XLT Sport, Lariat Chrome, and Lariat Sport.

Advanced Technology

The new 2019 Ford Ranger has adaptive cruise control with radar sensors that warn if a vehicle in front of you is slowing.

This KOCO article has more information for Ford owners including the fact that replacing this recall issue will cost nothing for owners of 2013 – 2016 Ford Fusion’s and 2013 – 2014 Ford Escapes if their car shows signs of the recall issue.

If you own a 2013 – 2016 Ford Fusion sedan or 2013 – 2014 Ford Escape we are ready to help you! It was announced on July 18, 2018 that Ford is recalling almost 550,000 vehicles in North America because of a gearshift problem causing cars and SUV’s to roll away unexpectedly.
