Let's talk Super Duty. If you can't afford to settle for one of those domesticated pickup trucks -- you know, the ones that are more about a cushy ride than serious capability -- you'll appreciate what the 2017 Ford F-250 has to offer. This full-size, heavy-duty truck is everything you could want in a towing and hauling machine.

Did you know that it's fully redesigned for 2017? Its available 6.7-liter V8 turbodiesel generates a monstrous 400 horsepower and 925 pound-feet of torque. Class-exclusive technologies keep it modern, like adaptive cruise control that works with heavy trailers.

What's new for the 2017 Ford F-150? We get this questions a lot at our Ford dealership in Kilgore, TX, and we're happy to report that the latest redesign ushers in some welcome changes for America's best-selling vehicle.

This light-duty pickup can tow up to a colossal 12,200 pound with its turbocharged 3.6-liter V6 EcoBoost engine. And better yet, this range-topping engine now comes paired with an all-new ten-speed automatic transmission. Having ten speeds to work with allows for improved efficiency and a better gear ratio for towing.

Don't want a minivan but can't afford to sacrifice spacious seating for the sake of style? Opt for the cavernous 2017 Ford Explorer, a three-row SUV with ample cargo and passenger space, not to mention a quiet, comfortable, and connected ride with an available turbocharged V6 and many thoughtful features.

Just to show you how plentiful the high-tech features are this year, let's lay out what you get with the Explorer Platinum, the model at the top of the food chain. Here are just a few of the generous amenities:

• A 180-degree camera (front-view)
• A dual-panel sunroof…

Ford's light-duty pickup was the truck topic of the year for 2016, and now the 2017 Ford Super Duty will be sure to receive the same attention.

How can we guess? The 2017 Super Duty lineup welcomes the addition of all-new, high-strength aluminum alloy body materials, just like the F-150, for exceptional weight savings. This allowed Ford to fortify the axles, steering, chassis, and four-wheel-drive components. The new, fully boxed frame is composed of over 95 percent high-strength steel as well. And yet even with all of these nips and tuck, the 2017 Super Duty leads competitors in maximum…

There are the newly popular subcompact SUVs, irreplaceable three-row behemoths, and small family vehicles. But what about that sweet spot between compact and cavernous, for those drivers that want the versatility and well-rounded design of a crossover without the expansive seating?

That just-right size is called the Ford Edge. This midsize crossover SUV masterfully balances carlike maneuverability and efficiency with SUV cargo-carrying capability. The Edge boasts a comprehensive design of high-tech amenities, upscale materials, low-stress cargo versatility, and

Ford has long held a reputation for delivering reliability, capability, and practicality in all of its many models. Well, Ford is expanding upon its list of attributes with its 2017 lineup. Not only do its vehicles look edgier -- arguable even futuristic compared to the competition -- but they act trendier, too, with more high-tech features than ever before.

The 2017 Ford Fusion midsize sedan, for example, welcomes such new technologies as a pedestrian system (the first on a Ford in North America) and the Ford SYNC® 3 infotainment system. The latter is getting rave reviews for its
