Under the #Ford #Edge's handsome hood lives a 2

.7-liter V6 Turbocharged EcoBoost engine that delivers 335 anxious ponies and produces an amazing 380 lb-ft of asphalt gripping torque. The powerful six is mated with a smooth shifting 8-speed automatic that has paddle shifters. This combo in the ST will put you at 60 mph in a blink over five seconds and sounding great in the process.

2019 Ford Edge


The Ford Edge midsized SUV went through some major updates for 2019 that will put this Edge in a much stronger position and make it one of the most desirable family movers in its class. 

Several car critics/writers are giving high praise for this new five-seater crossover from Ford.  For example, the trustworthy organization Consumer Reports gave the Ford Edge one of their coveted “Check Marks” for a Recommended Vehicle. But, don't take anyone's word for it and just do your own due diligence with an up close and personal inspection of this new Edge with the friendly folks at Hixson Ford of Alexandria located at 2506 MacArthur Drive in Alexandria, Louisiana or by calling the dealership at 318.448.0871 and give your expectations a very pleasant test drive. 

What is causing the most excitement is the new ST model for those motor heads who have children.  This “hot hatch” takes the regular Edge and just pumps it with steroids which makes the Edge ST a thrill ride with the brains to match. 

Under its handsome hood lives a 2.7-liter V6 Turbocharged EcoBoost engine that delivers 335 anxious ponies and produces an amazing 380 lb-ft of asphalt gripping torque.  The powerful six is mated with a smooth shifting 8-speed automatic that has paddle shifters.  This combo in the ST will put you at 60 mph in a blink over five seconds and sounding great in the process.  The other big plus is that the ST Edge comes standard with AWD, stronger suspension, heavy duty monotube shocks, larger sway bar, 20-inch wheels and more goodies.  The finishing touch for this menacing machine is the ST Performance Brake Package that has those sticky summer tires, vented disc brakes, masculine looking red calipers that set the sporty theme. 

This new Ford Edge ST is also great looking with its gentle curves, sleek styling, cat's eye headlamps, black grille and dual-exhaust outlets that makes sure it refuses to go unnoticed.  Sounding great and looking like a brute with its red ST badges.  Inside, this theme continues with the Edge's updated cabin and seats that hold you like your favorite leather gloves while taking on those country curves. 

For your entertainment, communication and safety desires this Edge is outfitted with Ford's highly rated Sync3 infotainment system.  Talking about safety, the Edge has many standard safety features that include the highly popular forward collision warning/braking with pedestrian detection.  Thank you, Ford. 


Now if you are not into that much horsepower, then also test drive the regular Edge with its feisty 2.0-liter turbo inline four that kicks out 250 lively horses.  This Edge achieves a fine balance of comfort and precision, while the ST is for the enthusiast-oriented driver bringing more horses to the party.  Consumer Reports commented recently: “The Edge's quiet cabin, steady ride and agile handling wouldn't be out of place in a luxury car.” 

So, go ahead and find out what all the fuss is about with the new redesigned Ford Edge and the ST model. No better time than now.

2019 Ford Taurus


Are you searching for a large sedan with stylish European lines, comfortable, quiet, luxurious and up to date on the latest safety and infotainment systems with more than enough power?  Then the popular Ford Taurus must be on the top of your list to investigate.  This legendary people hauling sedan with its large trunk that is able to swallow four golf bags is proudly on display with the friendly folks at Hixson Ford of Alexandria located at 2506 MacArthur Drive in Alexandria, Louisiana or by calling the dealership at 318.448.0871 and so ready to take your expectations for a  spin.  Simple as that. 

You'll find a great deal on this sharp looking big highway cruiser that fits five passengers very comfortable with a starting price under 30K.  Load the Taurus with all its high-tech options and you will feel like you are driving one of those “pricey” luxury sedans.  It also helps to have 288 feisty ponies under its long handsome hood.  This standard powerful V6 has ample energy for passing that 18-wheeler, merging or climbing steep hills.  The Taurus also excels in steering precision, cornering ability and stopping power. 
Now if you desire more zip in your trips, then also test drive the SHO model.  This speedster punches out 365 anxious thoroughbreds with its twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 that comes standard with AWD.  The SHO will put you at 60 mph in just a blink over five seconds, sounding great in the process and as quick as a cat with 350 lb-ft of asphalt grabbing torque.  All Taurus's are fitted with a smooth shifting six-speed automatic.  This big sedan from Ford is nearly as long as some full-sized SUV's in length, but it looks smaller which is thanks to the taut and sleek body lines. 

Its athletic short deck and long hood profile with the high belt-line seals the deal. Its low roof, wide stance, sloping windshield and rear window give the Taurus that sophisticated appearance. The SHO is more menacing with its tough looking exterior trim, 20-inch wheels and the rear spoiler. 
When you slide into those wide and comfy seats you'll appreciate the commanding view of the road ahead.  You and your guests will enjoy the ample head/leg room front and rear. Then for those long trips, the available massage feature helps to ease back fatigue along with heated and cooled seats.  The multi-function steering wheel and voice-command system controls many of the audio and navigation features.  For your communication and entertainment desires, Ford offers it's highly rated Sync 3 infotainment setup with a large 8-inch touch screen.  There is also available a 12 speaker premium Sony audio system to enjoy during drive times.
Ford also stacks the Taurus with a slew of standard and optional features. 

No better time than the present to check out the new Ford Taurus.  The bet is on that you will leave with a smile, not only because you brought back the important “Fun Factor” in your drive times, but for the great deal you received.
