Hello world!

The 2023 Ford F-150 offers some of the most impressive performance and off-road capabilities you'll find in any full-size pickup today. When you also consider its sophisticated technology and first-class cabin, it all makes for a versatile pickup that's ready to accommodate both road trips and off-roading adventures. Along with available four-wheel drive, seven potent engines are available for this edition of the F-150, with sizes ranging from a 2.7-liter V6 to a 5.2-liter V8 and horsepower ranging from 325 horses to a whopping 700. Drivers looking for a gas-electric hybrid will be more than pleased with the 430-horsepower 3.5-liter hybrid V6 and its 12,700-pound maximum towing capacity. Performance Those looking to use the pickup for towing or tough jobs are also catered to with two workhorse engines that both offer 400 horsepower: a 5.0-liter V8 and a 3.5-liter V6 that can tow up to 14,000 pounds when fully equipped. Interior With a plush interior that can seat up to six passengers, the 2023 F-150 is perfect for when you want road trips to be more relaxing. The front-row seats offer multiple options, including a Max Recline setting that allows them to be fully reclined, as well as lumbar support and a multi-setting massage function called Active Motion. For times when you need to free up space for cargo, the available 60/40 bench seat can be quickly flipped down, and if you have smaller items that you need to keep safe, there's also a locking storage container in select models that's concealed beneath the rear seat. Technology This pickup's tech features are also sure to impress, like the Onboard Scales feature, which allows you to quickly weigh your cargo by placing it in the bed of the truck. There's also SYNC 4, an infotainment system that combines media file playback capabilities with navigation assistance, smartphone connectivity, and other functions. If you have power tools or large devices you need to charge, there's the Pro Power Onboard generator, which is available for the bed of the truck, and if music is your passion, you'll absolutely love the 18-speaker B&O Unleashed Sound System, as it combines high-clarity audio with deep bass. Safety As for safety, this edition offers plenty of smart safety features, like Pre-Collision Assist, which teams with Automatic Emergency Braking to notify you of the risk of possible collisions while applying brake pressure if one is imminent. Then there's Intersection Assist, which can alert you if other vehicles are approaching yours when you're making left turns at intersections. Combining safety with convenience, there's also the ever-helpful Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control, a feature that can keep the vehicle moving at whatever speed you prefer while adjusting it to speed limits on road signs or changes in the flow of traffic. Blending outstanding performance on and off-road with both a comfortable cabin and the newest technology, the 2023 F-150 is a pioneer within its class. Come see its other exciting features in person by stopping in and seeing us today at Devils Lake Ford.

The summer season is when North Dakota truly comes to life, and you can really feel that here in Devil's Lake! While our winters are sadly long and cold, our summers are incredibly beautiful, so tourists and locals alike want to get out on the lake and into nature. Here are our recommendations for summer activities you must try this year in Devil's Lake, ND. 1. Go Swimming at Black Tiger Bay Devil's Lake is famous for its lake,of course, so no summer here would be complete without a dip in the most famous lake of the Badlands! And there's no better place to do it than this little swimming hole at 3820 83rd Avenue, with a pristine sandy beach tucked under a canopy of trees. Summers get hot here in North Dakota, so jump in the lake to cool off, then run back to the beach to tan under the summer sun. And if you get too hot again, you can either jump back in or head for the shade in the forest. If you want to spend the evening (and the next morning) here, there are almost 100 camping lots available within a quick walk of the beach. 2. See an Outdoor Play at Fort Totten Little Theatre Devil's Lake's own community theater comes alive each July, where you can catch the professional cast performing a famous Broadway act 3-4 nights a week. But this isn't your typical town theater: the plays are performed with the most scenic backdrop imaginable on the shores of Roosevelt Park in Devil's Lake and under the star-filled Dakotan sky. The performance will surely wow you, and your family if you come here, and tickets are only around $15. Bring a picnic and make it a family outing! 3. Take a Boat Out on the Lake Boating is what most tourists come to Devil's Lake to do, and it's certainly a popular summer activity for locals as well. If you're into fishing, Devil's Lake offers some of the best catches in the Dakotas, with summer being the peak season to catch walleye, northern pike, bass, and perch. Or if you're into watersports, hook up a tube to your boat or slap on some water skis and turn the magnificent lake into your summer playground! If you don't have your own boat, our recommended place to rent a boat for the day is Woodland Marina, located at 1012 Woodland Drive. Rentals start at around $300 for powerboats. If you get into a sport like fishing or boating, you're gonna need a big, powerful car to bring all your gear around. And in ​Devil's Lake, there's only one great spot to get something like that. ​ So drive by Devil's Lake Ford to pick up a car that will ​lead you on the best outdoor adventures this summer, like the Ford F-150.
