There are many reasons why car buyers should consider purchasing Ford SUVs over cars. These fall into three categories of grow, tow, and show. What this means is that SUVs are bigger, stronger, and have more style than the average vehicle. When it comes to the space available in an SUV, it is not just about cargo space, but passenger space as well. With a family in tow, children need room for growth because that is what they do, and SUVs facilitate this need perfectly. It is not always about the kids. Sometimes, you may have a project on hand at requires materials to be moved from here to there. In this case, the towing capacity of an SUV is incomparable to that of a car. Perhaps, the most important feature of an SUV is the style it affords drivers. With amenities such as fold-away seating, GPS positioning, and command seating, the comfort of driving one of these vehicles is superior to that of the average vehicle. A trip to our dealership can make this clear, so come in and test drive one today.

It was One-hundred years ago today on July 27th, 1917 that Ford released the Model TT to assist the agricultural community with transportation and means of production. The Ford Model TT was the starting point that fundamentally transformed how Americans conduct business on the ranch, farm, and construction sites. Today Ford trucks continue to carry the torch for high-quality excellence, and the Ford F-series is still recognized as America's best-selling vehicle for 35 years and counting. The Ford pickup truck journey has significantly shaped everyday American life on and off the roadways and is a landmark of American history. Today the Ford brand continues to evolve with innovative vehicle technology that boasts versatility and performance power. Within one-hundred years of solid production and craftsmanship, it's incredible to see how far the Ford pickup truck has come with models like the 2017 F-250 Superduty. With a total of 35,533,183 full-size pickup trucks sold in a century, it will be amazing to see what the next one-hundred years will bring for the Ford F-series, as well as the Americans who adore driving them.

Has the midsize sedan segment been calling your name? Well, if so, we here at Shawnee Mission Ford encourage you to heed its cries -- and then turn your attention to ours, the 2017 Fusion. And why's that, exactly? AutoGuide.com Managing Editor Jodi Lai explains all in the clip below; have a look and listen right here: Though we're not typically ones to play favorites, we must nonetheless admit that the Fusion's mid-level engine, a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder, holds a special place in our heart. Available with the SE and standard on the Titanium and Platinum, this turbo-four is rated at a robust 240 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque. It receives front-wheel drive by default, while an all-wheel system is optional. And while its performance chops may be its main attraction, we enjoy the fuel efficiency of this engine, too. When had with front-wheel drive, for example, it'll achieve 25 mpg combined (21 city/31 highway). To learn more about this dapper four-door, or to take one for a spin, we suggest you set a course for our Shawnee, KS location. Our automotive aces are on hand to address your every query about the Fusion, or any other Ford model within the current lineup.

Traveling with an infant can be stressful. Having a properly stocked emergency kit can help relieve some of that stress. Here are a few items you should add to your roadside emergency kit for when you're traveling with an infant. It's all about comfort and food when it comes to keeping a child safe. Making sure that your roadside emergency kit has food that is shelf-stable, non-perishable, and developmentally appropriate will help. Depending on the infant's age this could range anywhere from milk or formula all the way to cereals. If you're keeping formula in your roadside emergency kit, you'll need to keep extra water to mix it up. Finally, always make sure to pack extra clothes and diapers. As anyone with an infant knows, messes happen, and changes of clothes are always needed. Your adequately stocked roadside emergency kit should help keep you, and an infant safe and comfortable should the need ever arise.
