Redesigned Exterior The exterior of the 2020 Escape is longer, lower, and wider than previous models, providing a more dynamic experience while still maintaining the ruggedness that the Escape is known for. One stunning exterior feature is the panoramic vista roof that will allow drivers to bring the outside in. The Escape's new exterior is truly refreshing.

If you're in the market for a new pickup truck, you should consider the 2019 Ford F-150 Raptor. The Raptor is the performance version of the classic F-150, with several features that make it well worth the upgrade. Let's discuss some of those features. Power While the standard F-150 is known for being a powerful truck, the 2019 Raptor gets an extra boost from high-output twin-turbo, intercooled DOHC 24-valve, 3.5-Liter EcoBoost engine. Combined with a 10-speed automatic transmission, the Raptor has a massive output of  450 horsepower and 510 pound-feet of torque. Performance With beadlock-capable wheels, the 2019 Raptor can tackle even more terrain than the standard F-150. The beadlocking technology keeps the tires clamped to the wheels, allowing you to air down the tires for activities like rock crawling. Another feature that allows you to tackle any terrain is the Raptor's Fox Live Valve Shocks. The shock system automatically adjusts suspension damping depending on the terrain and your driving style. Style The 2019 Raptor features colors and packages not available on the standard F-150. Exterior color options include the stunning Performance Blue, Velocity Blue, and Agate Black. The Blue Accent package includes Recaro front seats with enhanced bolstering in the seat back and cushion. All of the seating features Rhapsody Blue Alcantara seat inserts, while the cabin is accented with carbon fiber appliques. These are just some of the reasons to upgrade to the 2019 Raptor. Consider taking a test drive so you can experience it yourself.

All good things come to an end. With a run spanning four decades, the Ford Taurus finally leaves the Detroit automaker's lineup in 2019. However, this shouldn't be met with tears and somberness. The 2019 Ford Taurus ends on a beautiful cadence, making it a top sedan for buyers this year. Here are just a few reasons to get the Taurus while you still can. Superb Safety Features With an array of driver-assist safety features, the 2019 Ford Taurus earns a perfect five-star safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. At the heart of this rating are several cutting-edge systems designed to keep an eye out for other motorists and limit distractions. Highlights include a reverse sensing system, a blind-spot information system with cross-traffic alert, a lane-keeping system, and active park assist. Exceptional Comfort The Ford Taurus becomes a luxury car in 2019, offering some of the best comfort options in the industry. No matter what the weather's like outside, you'll stay comfortable thanks to leather-trimmed seating, a heated steering wheel, heated and cooled front seats, and heated outboard rear seats. Three High-Powered Engines If you put a premium on performance, the 2019 Taurus delivers with three engine options. Choose from a 240-horsepower 2.0-liter turbo-four, a 3.5-liter V-6 with 288 horsepower, or the thunderous 3.5-liter turbocharged V-6 that dishes out 365 ponies for a ride that borders on sports-car performance. The American preference of crossovers might have been the Taurus's undoing, but with a final statement, the sedan will be remembered rather than forgotten.

Staking a 57 percent share in the van segment in the United States, the Ford Transit is the best-selling van in the country. With both commercial and consumer applications, the Transit has remained a stalwart in the industry. So what makes the Ford Transit so attractive to buyers? Upfit Friendly One of the most outstanding features of the Ford Transit is its easy customization. Whether you're an electrician, a plumber, a florist, or a delivery person, the Transit can be upfitted with shelving, drawers, and other compartments. Not only does this save you money on customization costs, but it also improves the organization and practicality you need. Loads of Passenger and Cargo Space Whether you need a family-hauler or a new vehicle for your business, the Ford Transit has loads of passenger and cargo space. Ample space in the Ford Transit Connect allows you to haul up to seven passengers or 167.1 cubic feet of cargo. For commercial applications, the Ford Transit Passenger Van accommodates up to 12 passengers with plenty of legroom and headroom. The Transit Cargo Van comes with three roof heights and three body styles to accommodate all of your needs. With up to 445 cubic feet of storage volume, you'll always have enough room for all the necessities. With an amazingly simple yet versatile interior, tons of cargo and passenger space, and the reliability that only Ford can offer, it's no surprise why the Ford Transit rightly nabs its place at the top of the van market year after year.

Heating Elements Everywhere Depending on the trim, the 2019 Ford Taurus can be a very cozy car no matter how cold the weather is outside.

FordPass helps you out by sending you reminders about your car's service schedule, reserve parking spots at your destination, and check fuel prices. You can even use the app to pay for services at participating Ford dealerships. A Sporty Option The top trim for the 2019 Ford Taurus is the SHO. This trim brings out the sporty side of the Taurus by giving you a sport-tuned suspension, a special V-6 EcoBoost engine, and standard all-wheel drive. You also get unique badges both inside and out that let everyone know your car is an SHO. People look for a full-size sedan when they want space, luxury, and great features without having to pay a luxury car's price tag.

The Ford Flex is an older design, but it still holds its own in today's market thanks to a solid chassis, a comfortable interior, and a cargo area with a lot of space to spare. If you're looking for a solid SUV that can handle anything, have a look at what the 2019 Flex has to offer. Powerful Engines While the 2019 Flex starts with a potent V-6 engine, you can really get the SUV moving with the available EcoBoost engine. This engine combines six cylinders with a twin turbocharger to boost horsepower from 287 to 365 and torque from 254 to 350 pound-feet. With the second engine, the Flex can tow up to 4,500 pounds. SYNC 3 Ford's infotainment system is called SYNC 3, and it's a big improvement over the original design. SYNC 3 comes standard on the SEL and Limited trims, giving you a solid, modern interface you can use for audio selection and the available navigation system. A Big Cargo Space The boxy rear of the Flex is for more than just show. Despite having three seat rows, the Flex can fit 20 cubic feet in the back, and that goes all the way up to 83.2 cubic feet when you fold the back rows down. The Ford Flex may be an older model, but people use it because it works and it has all the space and features they could want. Find out for yourself what the Flex can offer by test driving one at your local Ford dealership. Image via Flickr by CFlo Photography

Ford is during some amazing things with the Fusion lineup this year. Before you choose a trim level, you get the choice between three versions of the car — the standard Fusion, the hybrid version, and their electric plug-in hybrid Energi. Standard Fusion You can't go wrong with the classic. The 2019 Ford Fusion is the most reasonably priced version on this list and carries with it the reliability the series is known for. What the classic Fusion has over its hybrid counterparts is its level of customization. Choose from five trim levels to get the perfect ride for you. Fusion Hybrid The gas-electric Fusion Hybrid gets 43 MPG in the city and 41 on the highway — the perfect way to save money at the pumps if you have a shorter commute. It comes in three trims: the SE, SEL, and Titanium. Each adds to the features of the last. Fusion Energi If you never want to go a gas station for anything besides potato chips again, the Fusion Energi is the version for you. It has an unheard-of 104 MPG in the city and 91 on the highway. The downside is there is only one trim level for the Energi: the Titanium. But if you're looking for the best of the best in hybrids, the Energi is our pick. Whenever you're ready to explore the 2019 Fusion, give us a visit at Rusty Eck Ford. We'll get you behind the wheel of the perfect Ford for you to test drive. Image via Flickr by JeepersMedia
