When it comes to large SUVs, the 2021 Ford Expedition and 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe are two of the biggest, toughest, most utilitarian vehicles in the country. It’s no secret that Ford and Chevy have a longstanding rivalry across many segments, and this one is no different in that regard. While we obviously prefer the Ford SUV option available here at Bill Colwell Ford, we figured it would be worthwhile to offer some evidence as to why. While these models are very similar, there are a couple of areas where the Ford Expedition is clearly better: engine power and towing…

The 2021 Ford Explorer is an excellent SUV option for many customers in and around Hudson, IA, but here at Bill Colwell Ford, we’re also well aware that there are a whole lot of great competitors on the market, including the 2021 Kia Telluride. If you’re a Hudson, IA shopper looking to find an ideal SUV for you and your needs, both are solid choices, but we’d like to show you why we think the Ford SUV option is the superior option.

The 2021 Ford Edge is a fantastic midsize SUV available here at Bill Colwell Ford, but anyone who’s done even a little research into crossovers these days knows that the segment is crowded with competitors. Knowing that, we thought we’d have a look at how the Ford Edge stacks up against one of its toughest competitors, the 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee, in a few important categories.

The 2021 Ford Escape is an excellent compact crossover by nearly every measurable standard, but the automotive landscape in 2021 is more competitive than ever. That means Hudson, IA drivers may struggle to decide between the Ford Escape and major competitors like the 2021 Toyota RAV4. Which vehicle gives customers the best bang for their buck? We would argue in favor of the 2021 Ford Escape for a few important reasons:

Since the 2021 Ford F-150 pickup truck has been completely redesigned for this model year, we have an easier time than ever here at Bill Colwell Ford comparing it to its major competitors. For example, the 2021 GMC Sierra is a formidable adversary that, like many other rival pickups, can’t quite hold up to the Ford F-150. When it comes to the 2021 Ford F-150 vs. the 2021 GMC Sierra, it’s clear which is the superior automobile.

While the Ford F-150 remains the best-selling automobile in the United States, the Chevy Silverado is also among the top three. This means that customers in and around Hudson, IA can feel as though making a decision between the two is nearly impossible. Thankfully, when looking at the 2021 Ford F-150 vs the 2021 Chevy Silverado, it’s clear which vehicle reigns supreme, even into this new model year.

Choosing a new credit card is, in a lot of ways, a lot like buying a new car. Different credit services offer different types of perks for their members, and trying to decide which card has the most ideal parks can feel like a lot of work—until and unless you consider the FordPass™ Rewards Visa, which just might be the perfect credit card for Ford users since its benefits multiply for everything from new Ford vehicle purchases to service expenses.

One of the most enjoyable features of any new Ford model is the SYNC® infotainment system, which uses wireless Bluetooth® technology to transfer information between your vehicle and your phone. It makes driving a whole lot easier and a whole lot more enjoyable, but as with all software, it does occasionally require an update installation. Thankfully, Hudson Ford owners can manage these updates easily by following a few simple steps.

One of the most famous and most beloved features of Ford vehicles is the SecuriCode™ keyless entry, which allows drivers to access their vehicles by punching in a code on the driver-side door. This has been a feature of Ford vehicles for years, but a time may come when a Bill Colwell Ford customer may want to change the five-digit security code that came with the vehicle. Doing so is much easier than you may imagine.
