The Ford Mustang reasserts its competitive side, returning with four powerful engine choices, three types of transmission, steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters, and seven appearance packages. That’s only where this iconic ride’s performance features begin. Our Palatka, FL Beck Ford Lincoln selected two of many performance features that set this ride apart from any in its class.

Manual or Automatic Transmission

Should you get stick or auto? Either option is a winner in the Ford Mustang’s transmission architecture. Thanks to engines that average 300+ horsepower, both types of transmission have advantages. Automatic utilizes a computer to optimize gear ratios for buttery-smooth gear shifts. Manual entails fewer parts and no computer, combining a stick with race car-inspired, steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters. The result is a more tactile transmission that’s ideal for racing, inclement weather, and diverse terrain.

Special Seven-Speed Dual Clutch

Among the Ford Mustang’s four available engines is a 760-horsepower 5.2-liter V8 paired with a special TREMEC seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. The ultimate in race car transmissions, this architecture uses twin gearboxes working in synchrony. Computer-controlled, dual-clutch cancels out the need for a clutch pedal, the twin gearboxes providing quicker, smoother shifting.

At Beck Ford Lincoln, we understand that today’s drivers want a fuel-efficient vehicle without sacrificing power. That is why the Explorer is an easy three-row SUV to recommend to families. Not only does it have two powerful engines, but it also has fuel economy that your wallet will appreciate.

Pumping out 300-horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque is the standard turbo inline-four 2.3L four-cylinder engine. Despite this impressive output, models with this underneath the hood and rear-wheel drive get 21 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway. Going with all-wheel drive will only drop each of those numbers down by one.

A twin-turbo V6 is also on the table, giving you the ability to make up to 400-horsepower when you choose the Explorer ST. No matter the trim or engine, you will find a 10-speed automatic transmission is standard for the Explorer.

Safety Features

We know you’ve got to get where you’re going, and that won’t always mean you’ll be traveling on the road less taken. For those times you’re on well-traveled highways and byways, Ford has made our Ford Co-Pilot360 Technologies standard throughout the Bronco series. Be sure to ask one of our sales team members about which safety features are standard and available on the model in which you’re most interested.

Some of our safety features include:

  • Blind Spot Information System. When a vehicle enters your blind spot, you’re alerted by the illumination of a small light in the corresponding side-view mirror. To make a safe lane change, you no longer have to turn and swivel. Keep your eyes confidently on the road ahead, check your mirrors, and let us help you do the rest. It’s that easy and that revolutionary!
  • Lane-Keeping System. For those rare instances that your attention is diverted, our system reminds you to refocus on the road ahead. When you leave your detected lane of traffic without using your turn indicator, our system gently alerts you to make corrections. If you continue to leave your lane of traffic and are inconsistent with acceleration, the system may suggest you take a coffee break or stop for a minute to stretch your legs.
  • Auto High-Beam Headlamps. You might not assume that headlamps were a safety feature, but that’s because you’ve never seen these. Using sensors that detect ambient light levels, these headlamps automatically dim and brighten. You’ll always have the optimal light available to you to see around turns and corners, but you’ll never worry about blinding oncoming traffic again. It’s the best of both worlds!
