Ford Explorer and F-150: Tough Enough for Jersey Roads, Smart Enough for Jersey Drivers

In New Jersey, adventure isn't always a planned weekend trip - it's sometimes just making it through the morning commute. That's why the Ford Explorer and Ford F-150 earned mention in Nielsen Editorial's roundup of vehicles with the top safety features for Garden State drivers. (Because here, your car needs to be ready for snow squalls, Shore traffic, and mystery construction zones - all before lunch.)

The Ford Explorer comes equipped to handle anything New Jersey's weather throws your way. Standard Ford Co-Pilot360® tech includes smart systems like Pre-Collision Assist, Blind Spot Monitoring, and Lane-Keeping Assist - all designed to help you handle those last-minute lane shifts and icy hairpin turns. Add in available Intelligent 4WD and a 360-Degree Camera, and the Explorer is ready for packed Sussex County backroads, muddy trailheads, or a family weekend down the Shore. (Pro tip: It also handles surprise jughandles like a champ.)

Meanwhile, if you need serious muscle with your safety, the Ford F-150 steps up big. Built Ford Tough® but refined enough for daily life, the F-150 adds features like Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go, Blind Spot Monitoring with Trailer Coverage, and Pre-Collision Assist. Whether you're hauling lumber through Morris County or hauling kids to a doubleheader, the F-150 brings the power and the peace of mind to make it look easy.

While Nielsen Editorial's article gave props to great models like the Chevrolet Traverse and Nissan Altima, the Ford Explorer and F-150 are go-to picks for anyone who needs real capability, real safety, and real Jersey toughness - all wrapped up in one smart package. See them for yourself in the inventory at our Ford dealership in New Jersey.
