By Cesare Manansala

Spring is winding down, and summer is fastly approaching. And you know what that means? Time to hit the road for your next summer trip!

If you’re planning that ideal summer getaway but still need the right vehicle — and fast — look no further than Kelly Ford, your go-to dealership for all things adventure-ready!

Best Fords for beach cruising

In Florida, we are surrounded by what makes our great state so famous: beaches. If cruising down the beach is your favorite summer pastime, we highly recommend our lot’s available Broncos, Explorers, and F-150s. These particular Ford trucks and SUVS are built for driving down sandy terrain with powerful towing capabilities to haul beach equipment. They are perfect family vehicles to explore Florida’s best beaches, from the panhandle down to the Keys. 

Taking the “high road”

If you’re not a beach enthusiast and would rather not get sand all over yourself, may we suggest a little off-road driving out of state? (It’s a known fact that Florida is a flat state with no mountains). If you’re seeking higher, more rugged roads, you can always head north to Georgia, home of the renowned Blue Ridge Mountains! They offer some of the best hiking and camping activities in the state. Should that tickle your summer fancy, then consider our Broncos, F-150 Raptors, and Ranger Raptors. 

Tackling the big outdoors requires some heavy-duty vehicles. Our high-performance Broncos, F-150 Raptors, and Ranger Raptors are known for their robust suspensions, strong off-road performances, and amazing maneuverability. If exploring those hilly Georgia mountain ranges are right up your alley, prepare your journey with these very capable Ford trucks and SUVs!

You’re gonna need a bigger boat…best towing vehicles

For boating lovers, you’ll need a strong Ford vehicle to tow your vessel to the water. Depending on the boat size of your choice, our lot boasts the strongest vehicles with the best towing capabilities. For all light to medium-sized boats, we recommend our F-150 trucks along with our Rangers, Expeditions, and Explorers, while our F-250s and F-350 Super Duties are ideal for larger boats and trailers. Each of these vehicles have great towing capabilities, and they are primed to haul your boat for your next naval excursion at a lake or the mighty Atlantic Ocean.
