New Ford AWD/4WD SUVs and Trucks for sale in Muskegon, MI

Overcome Michigan Winters with AWD and 4WD Ford Vehicles in Muskegon

When the snow starts falling and the roads get slick in Muskegon, having a vehicle with all-wheel drive (AWD) or four-wheel drive (4WD) can be very helpful. At Great Lakes Ford of Muskegon, we have a colossal selection of capable Ford vehicles that can power through even the harshest winter conditions. Whether you're commuting to work in Grand Haven or heading up to the ski slopes in Fremont, you can trust that a Ford AWD or 4WD vehicle will get you there safely.

Differences Between All-Wheel Drive and Four-Wheel Drive

What's the difference between AWD and 4WD? While both systems send power to all four wheels for increased traction, they operate slightly differently. AWD systems are always on and automatically adjust power between the front and rear wheels as needed. 4WD systems, on the other hand, can be switched on and off by the driver. 4WD is optimal for more challenging off-road conditions or deep snow, while AWD is ideal for most winter road conditions around Norton Shores.

If you need a tough, capable pickup truck, the Ford F-150 and F-250 Super Duty deliver impressive performance. With powerful engine options like the 400 horsepower 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, these trucks have the muscle to tow heavy loads or plow through deep snow drifts in Whitehall. Their spacious cabs allow you to bring along the whole family or work crew in comfort.

If you're looking for a more compact and efficient pickup, check out the Ford Ranger or Ford Maverick. The Ranger's standard 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine puts out 270 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque, giving you plenty of power for handling slick roads around Muskegon.
