Ford improved the F-150 for 2021 by making it even more customizable. Whether you need a basic truck, a luxury utility vehicle, or a durable off-road pick-up, an F-150 can suit your needs and lifestyle. Ford builds the toughest vehicles and they keep getting better year after year. The 2021 Ford F150 is a top-quality truck, and here are a few reasons why. The New 2021 Ford F150 The 2021 F-150 is categorized as a large truck. It is available in six trim levels from the XL to Limited, which vary depending on the type of equipment you prefer. The new F-150 also comes in three cab styles that differ in towing capacity and passenger space. There are six powertrains to choose from including the new hybrid option. All of the powertrains come with a 10-speed transmission, a fully-boxed steel frame, and an aluminum-alloy body. Price Range The 2021 F-150 XL with a regular box, starts at $28,940. It has a 3.3L V6 engine with 290 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque. Adding the EcoBoost engine to this model will cost an additional $1,195. The XL is large enough to seat up to six passengers in the cabin. It also includes auto-start technology and displays an eight-inch touchscreen. At the top of the price range for the 2021 F-150 is the Limited model. The Limited with a SuperCrew style cab, starts at $70,825. The main reason the Limited is more pricey is due to the engine. It has a 3.5-liter turbocharged EcoBoost V-6 engine that provides 400 horsepower and 500 pound-feet of torque. This luxurious model also includes amenities such as: 12-inch touchscreen Heated and ventilated seats Wireless charging pad Sync 4 Power tailgate The Best New Features One of the main reasons to check out the new 2021 F-150 is the optional hybrid engine. Currently, the F-150 is the only pick-up that can run entirely on electricity. The hybrid powertrain engine, known as the PowerBoost, is available with every trim level. It allows for increased fuel efficiency and uses regenerative braking to charge. This means that it does not need to be plugged in because it recharges while you are driving. Additionally, with the new F-150, you have the option to add an onboard generator. Named the Pro Power Onboard, this generator provides power plugs in the bed of the truck that can be used for electric tools and equipment. The Power Pro Onboard is available with the gas or hybrid engine, but when paired with the hybrid it can provide the most power. The F-150 has been redesigned for 2021 with new features and benefits that make it more appealing than ever. The addition of the hybrid engine and the onboard generator give this truck unique advantages over the competition. No matter what you are looking for in a truck, the 2021 F-150 can be built with the right features for you. For more information contact Manderbach Ford today.

Some have a special love for big chains with a consistently good, cheap brew or a big menu of eternally customizable drinks. Some prefer a local feel with internationally-sourced and artisan roasted beans. Whatever your pleasure, Hamburg PA has something for you, and we’ve written up a short guide to help you figure out which mocha mart best suits your needs. Photo by: Steady Content 5 Favorite Local Coffee Places in Hamburg PA 1. Starbucks First, let’s get into the chains. Sure, it’s become a sort of cultural punchline that at some point or another, just about everyone has found themselves at the mercy of a craving for one of Starbucks’ sweet syrup confections. Well, it’s true, and we can’t deny the appeal of being able to order, individualize your preferences, and pay on an app. If convenience and customizability are your thing, Starbucks is for you. 2. Dunkin’ They may have dropped the “donuts” from their name, but they’re still your same old reliable standby for both a quick breakfast and a universally acknowledged great cup of Joe. You can’t go wrong with those cute little donut holes, either. Dunkin is fast and finances-friendly, so if either of those things are important to you, this is the place to be (just don’t expect much in the way of ambiance). 3. 3rd Street Cafe Onto the more unique local joints. If you want to have a seat and a leisurely bite to eat, 3rd Street Cafe serves up one style for your AM fix: drip. This classic diner has a standard but excellent and very reasonably priced menu. You won’t find much you don’t recognize here, but what you do find is satisfying enough that you probably won’t miss having to navigate a long list of choices with Italian-sounding names. 4. Four Twelve This is where you’ll likely find the Italian drink names. Four Twelve is a cute space in downtown Hamburg with a pleasing cozy-industrial aesthetic. The menu is sure to make any member of the caffeine crowd happy, with options like Nitro Cold Brew, Aeropress, and the full gamut of espresso drinks. There is plenty for the non-java folks as well, and lots of special winter warmers for the holiday season like their Chocolate Orange Steamer or candied Cranberry White Mocha. 5. Hamburg Sweet Treats A little bit of a departure in vibe from the rest of the breakfasty, mature entries on this list, but we just couldn’t leave it out. Sweet Treats is a great option if you have a kid tagging along, or if you know that caffeine alone isn’t going to cut through the 2 PM slump. This dessert mecca has just about every decadent accompaniment you could desire to support your warm mug of energy. At Manderbach Ford, we recognize and value the varied tastes of our community members. Just look at the number of new and certified pre-owned vehicles we have in our range! Come into Manderbach Ford and see them for yourself. Once you’re done finding your new favorite spot for a morning pick-me-up, come discover your new vehicle with us.

The new Ford F250 is one of the few vehicles out there that can claim to be Built Ford Tough and it is quickly proving itself to be one of the toughest. In the spirit of bringing greater awareness to this tough-as-nails vehicle, we’ve compiled this guide to just what makes the new Ford tougher than ever. Photo by: Bayou Ford Tougher Than Ever: The Updated 2021 Ford F250 Colors Before we get into the inside of this truck, let’s take a look at the outside. The new Ford is rolling right into the future and looking as advanced as a 2021 model should. The new Ford comes in your choice of many colors, with names such as Antimatter Blue, Carbonized Gray, and Lithium Gray, the colors available remain consistent with the futuristic theme of Ford rolling us right into the future of automobiles. Engine and Transmission The new Ford comes in your choice of one of three different engine options. The standard option is the 6.2-liter, gasoline-powered V-8 engine, which packs 430 lb-ft of torque and a powerful 385 horsepower. This engine option comes with a six-speed automatic transmission. The standard option above is very powerful, but the two other options are even stronger. The first is a 7.3-liter, gas-powered V-8 with a whopping 475 lb-ft of torque and an impressive 430 horsepower. This model comes with a 10-speed automatic transmission. The next option is the grand-slamming Power Stroke diesel engine with a mindblowing 1050 lb-ft of torque and gargantuan 475 horsepower. Entertainment This truck comes with a state-of-the-art entertainment system. The “infotainment” system comes with an 8.0-inch touchscreen dashboard monitor which includes Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and its own Wi-Fi hotspot. The already premium sound system that comes standard with the truck can even be upgraded to a 10-speaker Bang & Olufsen stereo with optional SiriusXM satellite radio. The ergonomic and intuitive control over the stereo system includes buttons and knobs right on your steering wheel so you can control the sound without taking your hands off the wheel. Safety Toughness breeds safety. Ford wouldn’t have a reputation for toughness if it didn’t also have a reputation for safety and Ford’s reputation for safety is well-deserved. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gave the 2021 F-250 a four-out-of-five star front-end crash test rating. Not only that, but the vehicle comes with a variety of safety features such as a multi-view camera system, blind-spot monitoring system, automated emergency braking, rear parking aid, and even high-tech lane-keeping assistance. Ford Tough is more than just a tagline. It’s a way of building high-performance automobiles. It’s the best way to describe the new F-250. With three powerful engines, six different customizable trims, and advanced safety features, this is one of the best trucks on the market today.

Whether you’re the outdoorsy type, love to spend the day at a museum, or simply want to relax and shop, we really have it all. Here are our top favorite reasons that we love living in. Photo by: Steady Content 5 Reasons to Love Living in Hamburg, PA 1. The Opportunities to Get Outside A lot of us like to make up for the winter chill by enjoying the summer months outside. Luckily, there are plenty of options. Our little town is bisected by part of the beautiful Schuylkill Canal and River Trail. Its construction was part of a larger effort to make use of old, abandoned railroad tracks, so you can appreciate some forgotten history while you admire the views, take your daily walk, or exercise your dog. 2. Our Destination Retailer It would be remiss not to mention Cabela’s which, is a lot more than simply an outdoor and sporting goods retailer! You can of course purchase supplies for all your hunting, fishing, and hiking needs. This spot is one of the nation’s largest Cabela’s and includes multiple wildlife exhibits, aquariums, an archery range, and a restaurant. 3. Quality Shopping Our small town is home to all the local treasures you could desire. Among them is the Art and Craft Gallery, which features tons of wares from local artists, both on display and for sale. You can find everything from paintings to jewelry, pottery, photographs, woven baskets…anything you can think of. We’re proud to live in a town that supports the work of community artisans! 4. The Culture We are also the residence of plenty of museums, like the Reading Railroad Heritage Museum. Even if you’re not from here, you might recognize the Reading Railroad from the popular board game Monopoly. This is because the Reading Company really was one of the richest corporations of its day, and is the oldest railroad company in the U.S. The museum collects vintage artifacts and memorabilia from the heyday of the Reading Railroad. 5. There’s Plenty Nearby as Well Hamburg is also only a 30-minute drive from other fun areas like Allentown, a larger city for those who feel like a bit of extra excitement on the weekends. We would recommend the brunch at Union & Finch (which has great sweet and savory options — a must for brunch). You can then head over to the Lehigh Valley Mall for a bit of browsing or check out one of their great museums and attractions. At Manderbach Ford, we are grateful to serve such a thriving small town. The community vibe is important to us, and we want you to be able to easily and comfortably take advantage of every facet of life that living here has to offer. To do that, you’ll need a vehicle!
