How do you take an inexpensive road trip? There are many options for a less expensive road trip.

There are zoos across the nation with free admission. Parking might be difficult. It might cost extra. You'll be able to visit zoos in major cities like Chicago or St. Louis without paying for your entire family. That can add up to big savings.

You don't have to pay admission generally for hiking. There are many outdoor parks where you can see waterfalls, caves and other wonders of nature.

You can pack food in a cooler. Eating sandwiches instead of…

Constant rain can be a problem for any car. Rain has acid in it. You may think you don't need a car wash just because it rained. It looks as if it may clean your car.

Here at Karl Flammer Ford Inc, we have half a mind to declare the 2017 Explorer the most spectacular full-size SUV throughout the entire industry.

For a horsepower boost, the engine can be upgraded to a 3.5-liter V6 or an even slicker sport model that packs a whopping 315 hp rating.

Standard front-wheel drive with well-tuned suspension and agile steering make the Edge comfortable and intuitive to drive. The Edge gets nearly 30 mpg on the highway, matching or exceeding other competitive SUVs for fuel economy.

Worrying about the safety of you and your car is understandable, but investing in a car meant to handle those kind of situations would greatly lessen the fear.
