In most places, buying an SUV is about convenience. In northern Minnesota, it is more like selecting survival equipment with cupholders. That is exactly why the 2026 Ford Bronco® keeps finding homes around Eveleth. It fits the landscape in the same way a decent pair of winter boots fits February. Properly. Naturally. Without complaint. And unlike many modern SUVs pretending to be rugged because somebody added black plastic wheel arches, the Bronco® was engineered to get dirty on purpose. Why the 2026 Ford Bronco® Feels Built for Minnesota The Iron Range does not reward fragile vehicles. Roads freeze, thaw, crack, flood, and occasionally disappear beneath snowdrifts large enough to qualify as geological features. The 2026 Ford Bronco® thrives in precisely those conditions. Available Trail Control™ works almost like off-road cruise control, automatically managing throttle and braking while you focus on steering through deep snow, mud, or rocky terrain. Pair that with available locking front and rear differentials and the Bronco® starts behaving less like a normal SUV and more like a mountain goat with Wi-Fi. The available HOSS suspension system also deserves attention because it gives the Bronco® remarkable composure on rough surfaces. Washboard logging roads. Frozen ruts. Spring melt trails. The chassis simply absorbs punishment and carries on. The Engine Lineup Has Real Personality Ford wisely avoided giving every Bronco® the same character. The standard 2.3L EcoBoost® engine already delivers a healthy 300 hp and 325 lbs. ft. of torque, which is more than enough for most drivers exploring northern Minnesota. But if you want something with extra muscle, the available Twin-Turbocharged 2.7L V6 pushes output to 330 hp and 415 lbs. ft. of torque. Then there is the Bronco Raptor®, which exists because Ford engineers occasionally wake up and choose violence. Its 3.0L Twin-Turbocharged V6 delivers 418 hp and turns gravel roads into personal amusement parks. Crucially, all that capability never makes the Bronco® feel intimidating. It still behaves predictably in town, on highways, and during daily driving. G.O.A.T. Modes Actually Earn the Name Most drive modes in modern vehicles feel invented by marketing departments after three coffees and a branding workshop. The Bronco’s available G.O.A.T. Modes™ genuinely change how the vehicle responds. Snow, sand, mud, Baja, rock crawl. Each mode alters throttle mapping, traction response, and drivetrain behavior in useful ways you can immediately feel from behind the wheel. For drivers around Eveleth, the snow setting alone can justify the Bronco®. Minnesota winters are rarely subtle, and having a vehicle engineered specifically for changing traction conditions becomes enormously valuable six months of the year. Open-Air Driving Completely Changes the Experience This is also one of the few SUVs left that still understands fun. The removable roof and doors transform the Bronco® during warmer months. One minute it is a capable winter machine clawing through February slush. The next it becomes an open-air trail explorer heading toward the Boundary Waters with camping gear strapped in the back. That dual personality is a massive part of its appeal. Current Ford® Offers Make the Timing Interesting Ford® is currently offering Employee Pricing for All on eligible new models, including the 2025 Ford Bronco®. Qualified buyers may also access available Ford Credit financing at 4.9% APR for 60 months. These offers run through July 6, 2026. For buyers already considering a Bronco®, the numbers become considerably more attractive right now. Find Your 2026 Ford Bronco® in Eveleth, MN The 2026 Ford Bronco® is not trying to imitate an adventure vehicle. It was built from the beginning for drivers who explore difficult places, harsh weather, and unpredictable terrain. That authenticity is exactly why it resonates so strongly in northern Minnesota. Visit Lundgren Motors Ford to explore available Bronco® models, compare trims, and schedule a test drive online.

Summer has a funny way of exposing a truck's strengths. It's one thing to commute to work on Tuesday. It's another to hitch up a camper before sunrise on Friday, load the bed with bikes and coolers, and point the grille toward northern Minnesota. That's where Ford's truck lineup earns its reputation. The full-size F-150® and midsize Ranger® are built for different jobs, but both deliver the capability to spend more time at the lake, on the trail, or around the campsite—and less time wondering if your truck is up to the task. Ford® Trucks Built to Go Beyond the Pavement Capability means more than a headline towing number. It starts with a truck that's engineered to handle real work year after year. Ford® ranked as the No. 1 mainstream brand in the J.D. Power 2026 U.S. Initial Quality Study, while the F-150® earned Best in Segment honors for the second consecutive year. For drivers around Eveleth, MN, that's reassuring when your destination is miles beyond the nearest paved road. 2026 Ford F-150®: Built for the Biggest Toys If your summer plans involve a large travel trailer, a wake boat, or a pair of side-by-sides, the F-150® is in its element. Its engine lineup covers nearly every use case. The available 2.7L EcoBoost® V6 produces 325 hp and 400 lbs.-ft. of torque, the proven 5.0L V8 delivers 400 hp and 410 lbs. ft. of torque, and the available 3.5L EcoBoost® V6 raises the bar with 400 hp and 500 lbs. ft. of torque. Properly equipped, that 3.5L EcoBoost® configuration can tow up to 13,500 lbs. and haul up to 2,440 lbs. of payload, making it one of the most capable light-duty pickups available. Ford also focuses on making those numbers easier to use. Available Pro Trailer Hitch Assist™ automatically steers the truck into position while Pro Trailer Backup Assist™ simplifies reversing with a trailer attached. Add Pro Trailer Onboard Scales with Smart Hitch and available BlueCruise hands-free highway driving, and long-distance towing becomes noticeably less demanding. If towing is high on your priority list, comparing our available Ford F-150® inventory is well worth your time. 2026 Ford Ranger®: Right-Sized for Weekend Escapes Not every adventure requires a full-size pickup. The Ranger® offers impressive capability in a package that's easier to maneuver through wooded trails, tight campgrounds, and everyday traffic. Its standard 2.3L EcoBoost® engine produces 270 hp and 310 lbs. ft. of torque, while the available 2.7L EcoBoost® raises output to 315 hp and 400 lbs. ft. of torque. For drivers who believe the quickest route to the campsite is the roughest one, the Ranger Raptor® answers with a 3.0L EcoBoost® V6 generating 405 hp and 430 lbs. ft. of torque, supported by FOX™ Live Valve dampers, locking front and rear differentials, and Baja mode for high-speed off-road driving. XL, XLT, and Lariat® models can tow up to 7,500 lbs. when properly equipped with the available Trailer Tow Package, enough for many campers, boats, and utility trailers. Available Trail Control™, selectable drive modes, and available 4x4 help the Ranger® stay composed long after the pavement ends. Technology That Helps You Enjoy the Trip A truck earns its keep long before the campsite comes into view. Available Ford Co-Pilot360® technologies help support driver awareness on long highway drives, while the available Ford Connectivity Package adds Connected Navigation and an unlimited Wi-Fi hotspot capable of connecting up to 10 devices. It's the sort of technology that fades into the background until you need it—which is exactly how good truck tech should work. Take a Test Drive at Lundgren Ford Reading towing figures and capability specs is helpful, but the best way to decide between the F-150® and Ranger® is from behind the wheel. Visit us in Eveleth, MN, to test drive both trucks, compare their features in person, and find the Ford® pickup that's ready for your next summer adventure.

A Lineup Built for Every Kind of Explorer The 2026 Bronco comes in 7 distinct models, so you can find the right fit whether you're a weekend warrior or a serious off-road enthusiast. Entry-level trims like the Base and Big Bend® offer a capable foundation with a 300-hp 2.3L EcoBoost® turbo engine, standard 4x4 with 5 drive modes, and a 7-speed manual transmission with a crawler gear. Higher trims like the Outer Banks® and Badlands® level up, offering a 330-hp turbo V6 engine and more off-road packages, along with premium touches. The Heritage Edition leans into its rugged roots, while the Stroppe Edition shows off Baja racing-inspired, exclusive, standout style, Code Orange accents throughout, and brawny suspension with FOX™ dampers to back up its boldness. At the top of the lineup, the Bronco Raptor® dominates any landscape with its 418-hp 3.0L EcoBoost® V6 and the most trail-focused technology available: H.O.S.S. 4.0 (High-Performance Off-Road Stability Suspension), massive 37” all-terrain tires, and FOX™ Live Valve semi-active dampers, for starters. Whatever your adventure looks like, there's a Ford Bronco that Eveleth drivers can count on. Off-Road Capability That Matches Minnesota's Terrain Minnesota roads aren't always roads at all—and that’s where the Bronco thrives. Up to seven G.O.A.T. Modes (Goes Over Any Type of Terrain) let you switch between Normal, Sport, Slippery, Sand, Off-Road, Rock Crawl, and Baja settings depending on conditions. With up to 13.1” of ground clearance on the Raptor®, and an incredible 37” water fording capability, the Bronco doesn’t falter when spring flooding hits northern Minnesota. The available High-Performance Off-Road Stability Suspension (H.O.S.S.) system, with options ranging from HOSS 1.0 through the burly H.O.S.S. 4.0, keeps the Bronco planted and controlled no matter what the trail demands. Trail Control off-road cruise control, Trail Turn Assist™, and Trail 1-Pedal Drive round out a capable off-road toolkit that helps drivers stay in command on unpredictable surfaces. Tech and Comfort for the Long Haul The 2026 Ford Bronco isn't just exciting on the outside—it's packed with inspiring features inside too. All trims boast a 12” touchscreen keeps real-time navigation, streaming with the Ford Connectivity Package, wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility, and more, front and center. Available features like heated front seats, dual-zone electronic automatic temperature control, and a thumping B&O® Sound System by Bang and Olufsen give you the perfect environment to immersive yourself in your soundtracks and take some detours. Pro Power Onboard™ provides 400W of power through two AC outlets, so you can power up your camping gear or remote worksite tools in a flash. With MOLLE straps, marine-grade vinyl upholstery, interior drain plugs, and more adventure-ready details, this SUV begs you to get your hands and feet dirty. Packages and Customization Options One of the Bronco's biggest advantages is how much you can tailor it to your specific needs. The Sasquatch® Package is a popular choice, adding 35” rugged-terrain tires, electronic-locking front and rear axles, and high-clearance fender flares. The available Lux Package brings in a 360-degree camera, Adaptive Cruise Control, and a 12-speaker B&O® audio system. Appearance packages like the retro-vibe Free Wheeling™ or Black Appearance Package let you put a personal stamp on the exterior.

The pickup truck market has spent decades convincing buyers that more size is always the answer. Then the Ford Maverick® arrived and challenged that thinking. The result? One of the most popular trucks on the road today. For drivers in Eveleth, MN, the 2026 Ford Maverick® offers something many full-size pickups can't: genuine truck capability wrapped in a package that's easy to live with every day. It's practical, efficient, versatile, and surprisingly capable when work needs to get done. Two Powertrains, One Smart Approach The 2026 Ford Maverick® gives buyers a choice of powertrains designed around different priorities. The standard 2.5L Hybrid powertrain delivers impressive efficiency while maintaining the utility truck buyers expect. For those wanting additional performance, the available 2.0L EcoBoost® engine provides stronger acceleration and enhanced towing capability. When properly equipped with the available 4K Tow Package, the Maverick® can tow up to 4,000 lbs. Payload capacity reaches up to 1,500 lbs., making it more than capable of handling home improvement supplies, recreational equipment, and everyday work duties. It's proof that capability doesn't have to come with a full-size footprint. A Bed Designed to Work Hard The Maverick® may be compact, but its cargo box is designed with real-world usability in mind. The standard FLEXBED® system provides approximately 33.3 cubic feet of cargo volume and includes multiple tie-down points, available storage solutions, and customizable features that allow owners to tailor the bed to their needs. If you're hauling lumber, camping equipment, tools, bicycles, or weekend project materials, the Maverick® offers flexibility that many larger trucks struggle to match. For many Minnesota drivers, that's exactly the right amount of truck. Technology That Fits Modern Life Inside the cabin, the Maverick® feels much more sophisticated than compact trucks of the past. A standard 13.2-inch touchscreen serves as the centerpiece of the interior, providing access to navigation, entertainment, connectivity, and vehicle settings. Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility come standard, making smartphone integration simple and intuitive. Available Ford Co-Pilot360® technologies add another layer of confidence through features designed to support driver awareness and convenience. The Maverick® demonstrates that practical doesn't have to mean basic. Sized for Everyday Minnesota Driving One of the truck's biggest advantages is something that doesn't appear on a specification sheet. Its manageable size makes parking easier, navigating tight spaces less stressful, and daily driving considerably more enjoyable than many larger pickups. Yet it still provides four full doors, comfortable seating, and the utility buyers expect from a truck. That balance is a major reason so many drivers throughout Eveleth, Virginia, Hibbing, and the Iron Range continue to take a closer look at the Maverick®. Recognition That Reinforces Its Reputation The Maverick® hasn't earned attention solely from shoppers. Industry experts have consistently praised the truck's innovative design and practical approach to capability. Awards such as North American Truck of the Year and MotorTrend Truck of the Year helped establish the Maverick® as one of the most important truck introductions of the decade. Find Your 2026 Ford Maverick® at Lundgren Motors Ford The 2026 Ford Maverick® succeeds because it focuses on what many truck buyers need: useful capability, impressive flexibility, practical technology, and a size that works in the real world. Visit Lundgren Motors Ford in Eveleth, MN to explore available Maverick® models, compare powertrain options, and experience why this compact pickup continues to attract drivers throughout the Iron Range. If you're looking for a capable work partner, an efficient daily driver, or a truck that can handle both, the Maverick® deserves at least a test drive before being excluded.

There’s a specific moment every Minnesota driver recognizes. You leave the house thinking the roads look manageable. Then halfway through a corner outside Eveleth, the surface changes from dry pavement to polished ice with all the warning of a trapdoor opening beneath you. That’s the moment people stop caring about marketing slogans and start caring about traction. Which explains why Ford AWD vehicles continue gaining ground across northern Minnesota. They are built for places where weather is not a mild inconvenience but an active participant in your commute. Why Ford AWD Systems Work So Well in Real Conditions A good all-wheel-drive system should feel invisible right up until the instant you need it. Ford has improved that formula exceptionally well across its SUV and truck lineup. The system constantly monitors traction and redirects power automatically when one wheel starts losing grip on snow, slush, wet pavement, or loose gravel. No buttons. No panic. No dramatic dashboard rituals. It simply reacts. That becomes enormously valuable in Minnesota because winter roads rarely stay consistent for long. You can leave a dry parking lot and hit packed snow two blocks later. The best AWD systems handle that transition without turning the drive into an event. The 2026 Ford Explorer® Continues to Be the Sweet Spot For many buyers around Eveleth, the 2026 Ford Explorer® lands right in the middle of capability, family practicality, and daily usability. This is still one of the most complete three-row SUVs Ford® builds. Available AWD gives the Explorer® genuine year-round confidence, while the cabin remains spacious enough for family trips, hockey gear, groceries, and the assorted chaos that follows active households everywhere. And unlike some large SUVs that feel heavy and disconnected, the Explorer® still drives with composure. That balance is a major reason it continues to resonate with Minnesota buyers year after year. Expedition® and Bronco®: Two Completely Different Approaches to Capability The 2026 Ford Expedition® takes a different route. This is the SUV for families who genuinely need space. Big road trips. Large trailers. Full passenger loads. The available AWD system paired with the Expedition’s powertrain options creates a vehicle that feels reassuringly substantial when weather conditions deteriorate. Then there’s the 2026 Ford Bronco®, which approaches capability with considerably more attitude. Where the Expedition® feels composed and commanding, the Bronco® feels adventurous. Ground clearance, available four-wheel drive, and terrain-focused engineering make it one of the few modern SUVs that still seems actively eager to leave the pavement behind. For Minnesota drivers dealing with deep snow, cabin roads, trails, or rough terrain, that personality has enormous appeal. Ford® Technology Makes Winter Driving Less Stressful What strengthens Ford® AWD vehicles isn’t just mechanical grip. It’s the technology layered around it. Ford Co-Pilot360® driver-assistance systems help reduce workload during difficult weather conditions, while available BlueCruise hands-free highway driving technology makes longer interstate drives noticeably calmer during winter travel. Importantly, Ford® integrates these systems without making the driving experience feel overly synthetic or complicated. The technology assists instead of dominating. That distinction matters more than many manufacturers realize. Timing Actually Favors Buyers Right Now Ford®’s Employee Pricing for All program currently applies to eligible 2025 and 2026 models, including vehicles like the 2026 Ford F-150® and 2025 Ford Bronco®. The 2026 Ford Explorer® also features current financing offers through Ford Credit for qualified buyers. For drivers considering an AWD upgrade before another Minnesota winter arrives, that timing becomes especially attractive. Explore Ford® AWD Vehicles in Eveleth, MN Northern Minnesota driving rewards preparation, confidence, and vehicles engineered for changing conditions. Ford® AWD vehicles continue to resonate in Eveleth because they combine capability, smart technology, and everyday practicality in ways that genuinely improve daily life. If the Explorer®, Expedition®, Bronco®, or Ford F-150® fits your needs best, there’s a reason these vehicles continue earning trust season after season. Visit Lundgren Motors Ford to explore current inventory, compare AWD models, and schedule a test drive online.

Ford SUVs continue to be a top choice for drivers who want a balance of capability, comfort, and everyday practicality. At Ford, the 2026 SUV lineup builds on the strengths of the 2025 models with noticeable improvements in technology, interior refinement, and available features. Drivers in Eveleth, MN can compare both model years at Lundgren Motors Ford to find the SUV that best fits their lifestyle, whether that means family travel, daily commuting, or weekend adventure. Smarter Technology Across the 2026 Ford SUV Lineup One of the most noticeable upgrades for 2026 is the expanded use of Ford’s newest software and digital interface systems. Many 2026 SUVs now feature the latest version of Ford Co-Pilot360, which enhances safety through improved lane-keeping assistance, blind spot monitoring, and adaptive driver alerts. Inside the cabin, models like the Ford Explorer and Ford Expedition now offer larger, more responsive center touchscreens—typically 13.2 inches or greater—powered by Ford’s updated Digital Experience interface. Key tech highlights include: Standard Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto® integration Faster response times and improved menu navigation Enhanced voice command functionality Available panoramic display upgrades in select trims The 2026 Ford Expedition stands out with an available 24-inch panoramic digital display, creating a more modern, driver-focused dashboard layout compared to earlier model years. Performance: Proven Power with Modern Refinements Performance remains a strong point across the 2026 Ford SUV lineup, with carryover engines and refinements from late 2025 updates. The Ford Explorer continues to offer two proven engine options: 2.3L EcoBoost I-4 delivering 300 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque Available 3.0L V6 in ST and Platinum trims producing up to 400 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque These engines balance everyday drivability with strong highway performance, making the Explorer a versatile option for Minnesota roads. Meanwhile, the Ford Bronco Sport continues to offer its 1.5L and 2.0L engine options. The available 2.0L turbocharged engine produces up to 238 horsepower and 277 lb-ft of torque, giving it confident capability for both city driving and light off-road use. For 2026, the popular Sasquatch Package continues to be available on select trims, adding upgraded off-road tires and enhanced trail capability—building on the improvements introduced in the previous model year. Interior Comfort and Exterior Updates for 2026 Ford has also refined both the interior and exterior design across its SUV lineup for 2026, focusing on comfort, durability, and visual appeal. Inside, new seat materials and upgraded surface finishes help improve long-term durability while maintaining a more premium feel across trims such as Active, ST-Line, Platinum, and ST. On the outside, drivers will notice: Updated grille designs for a refreshed appearance New wheel options across multiple trims Additional exterior color choices for 2026 The Ford Bronco Sport also benefits from upgraded standard tech in many trims, including a larger available 13.2-inch touchscreen that replaces smaller base displays found in older models.

As the snow melts and the days get longer, spring travel is just around the corner. Whether you’re planning a road trip, a weekend getaway, or a scenic drive to enjoy the beauty of the season, preparing your vehicle for spring travel is key to ensuring a smooth and enjoyable ride. Lundgren Motors Ford in Eveleth, MN, has some essential spring travel tips to help you hit the road with confidence. 1. Check Your Vehicle’s Tires After a long winter, your tires may have taken a beating from road salt, ice, and cold temperatures. Before hitting the road, inspect your tires for wear and check the tread depth. If your tires are worn out or have uneven wear, it’s time to replace them. Spring is also a great time to switch from winter tires to all-season tires, ensuring your vehicle is ready for the warmer, wet conditions. Tip: Be sure to also check tire pressure. Cold temperatures can cause tire pressure to drop, and proper tire inflation helps with fuel efficiency and overall safety. 2. Schedule a Spring Vehicle Inspection Winter can put your vehicle through some tough conditions, from extreme temperatures to icy roads. Scheduling a spring inspection with Lundgren Motors Ford is a great way to ensure that everything is in top condition. Our certified technicians can check key components like the brakes, battery, fluid levels, and the exhaust system to make sure your car is road-ready for the warmer months. Tip: Don’t forget to have your windshield wipers checked! Spring showers can be unpredictable, so it's important to have wipers in good condition for clear visibility. 3. Check the Air Conditioning System As temperatures rise, you'll want to make sure your air conditioning system is working properly. Nothing ruins a spring road trip faster than a malfunctioning AC unit. If you haven’t used your AC in months, it’s a good idea to have it checked before the heat of summer hits. Have your refrigerant levels topped off and ensure that the system is blowing cold air efficiently. Tip: A properly functioning AC system can also help defog your windshield on rainy spring days. 4. Plan for Spring Road Trips Spring is the perfect time for a road trip—whether you’re heading to a nearby park, a beach, or just exploring new places. Before you head out, make sure your vehicle is stocked with essential items, such as a first aid kit, snacks, water, and a phone charger. Consider downloading apps for navigation, local attractions, or traffic updates to make your trip more enjoyable. Tip: Check the weather forecast for the route you’re taking. Spring weather can be unpredictable, so it’s important to be prepared for rain, wind, or even an unexpected snowstorm in some areas. 5. Fuel Efficiency Tips for Spring Spring travel can lead to more driving, especially as people take advantage of the warmer weather. To maximize fuel efficiency on your spring trips, avoid aggressive driving, such as rapid acceleration and hard braking, which can decrease fuel economy. Proper tire inflation, regular maintenance, and smooth driving will help you save on gas, leaving you more funds for your travels. Tip: If you’re looking for a fuel-efficient option, check out the 2026 Ford Maverick with its hybrid powertrain, offering excellent gas mileage for your road trips. 6. Take Advantage of Ford’s Latest Features for a Comfortable Ride When preparing for a spring road trip, comfort is key. Many 2026 Ford models, like the Ford F-150, Ford Escape, and Ford Mustang Mach-E, come with advanced features designed to make your journey more comfortable and enjoyable. From Ford Co-Pilot360© technology to hands-free driving with BlueCruise©, these vehicles offer safety and convenience on every drive. Tip: If you’re planning a long road trip, consider upgrading to a Ford vehicle with adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assistance to make long drives easier and more relaxing. 7. Stay Organized with Ford’s Technology Modern Ford vehicles come equipped with advanced technology that can help you stay organized and make your trip more enjoyable. Utilize features like Apple CarPlay© and Android Auto© to stream your favorite music, access navigation, and make hands-free calls. The 12” touchscreen in many Ford models provides easy access to these features, helping you stay connected without distractions. Tip: Make use of the FordPass© App to monitor your vehicle's status, lock and unlock your doors remotely, or even start your vehicle from a distance on chilly spring mornings. 8.

Enjoy Confident Spring Driving with Ford AWD Vehicles in Eveleth, MN When spring arrives in Eveleth, Minnesota, roads can shift quickly from dry pavement to wet conditions, gravel, and seasonal potholes. Melting snow, spring rain, and fluctuating temperatures create unpredictable driving conditions.

With responsive engineering and intelligent power distribution, Ford AWD vehicles are built to support everything from daily commutes to weekend road trips across northern Minnesota’s scenic spring landscapes.

In the spring, this becomes especially valuable when roads are wet from rain, covered in loose gravel, or affected by thawing and refreezing surfaces.

Whether you’re navigating city streets in Eveleth or heading out toward rural roads for outdoor activities, AWD provides added confidence and control. Many Ford AWD models also include the available Ford Co-Pilot360® suite of driver-assist technologies, offering features like Lane-Keeping System and Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking.
