Spotlight on the 2024 Ford Bronco Outer Banks®

Fall Foliage Drives Near Conshohocken, PA As summer fades and the air turns crisp, the parks, trails, and back roads around Conshohocken transform into one of the best fall foliage destinations in the Philadelphia area. Pennsylvania has one of the longest and most varied fall foliage seasons in the country, and you don't have to travel far to see it. Here's a local guide to the best fall foliage drives near Conshohocken, brought to you by John Kennedy Ford of Conshohocken. Valley Forge National Historical Park Just a short drive from our showroom, Valley Forge National Historical Park pairs Revolutionary War history with some of the most photogenic fall scenery in the region. The five-mile Joseph Plumb Martin Trail loops past many of the park's most historic points, framing monuments in reds, oranges, and golds. It's an easy trail to walk or bike, and just as enjoyable as a scenic driving loop through the park's main roads. Wissahickon Valley Park Wissahickon Valley Park is consistently ranked among the best places in the region to see fall color. The park spans 1,800 wooded acres across both Philadelphia and Montgomery Counties, with more than 50 miles of trails winding along Wissahickon Creek. The seven-mile Forbidden Drive is the easiest way to take it all in, leading to the Thomas Mill Covered Bridge, the last remaining covered bridge in Philadelphia and one of the park's most photographed fall spots. The Schuylkill River Trail For a foliage drive that follows the water, the Schuylkill River Trail runs right through Conshohocken and connects Phoenixville and Pottstown all the way into Philadelphia, with long stretches offering unbroken views of the river framed by autumn color. Whether you're driving the connecting back roads or parking to walk a section on foot, it's one of the most convenient fall color corridors around, since it literally runs through town. Fort Washington State Park A bit farther down the Schuylkill corridor, Fort Washington State Park connects to the Wissahickon Trail, also known as the Green Ribbon Trail, and offers an ADA-accessible observation deck overlooking much of Montgomery County. It's one of the easiest ways to take in a wide sweep of fall color without committing to a long hike, making it a great add-on stop for a fall day trip. Green Lane Park For a bigger day trip, Green Lane Park is the largest park in Montgomery County at 3,400 acres, with a trail network ranging from easy, flat walks to higher-elevation hikes with sweeping views. It's one of the best spots in the county for both fall color and birdwatching in the same trip. The Best Way to Take In the Season Whether you're winding through Valley Forge, walking Forbidden Drive in the Wissahickon, or following the Schuylkill River Trail right from downtown Conshohocken, a fall foliage drive is a lot more enjoyable in a vehicle built for changing conditions. Ford's lineup of SUVs, including the Escape, Bronco, Bronco Sport, and Explorer, all offer available or standard four-wheel drive, so wet leaves on a shaded back road or an early frost won't cut your foliage tour short.

2026 Ford Escape vs. Honda CR-V: Compact SUV Comparison The Ford Escape and Honda CR-V are two of the most popular compact SUVs on the road, and it's easy to see why they're constantly cross-shopped. Both offer practical five-passenger layouts, solid fuel economy, and a wide range of trims. But once you dig into powertrain choices, cargo flexibility, and drivetrain options, real differences show up. Here's a full breakdown from the team at John Kennedy Ford of Conshohocken to help you decide which one is the smarter choice. Quick Comparison: 2026 Escape vs. 2026 CR-V Starting MSRP — Escape: $30,350 | CR-V: $30,920 Standard Engine — Escape: 1.5L EcoBoost Turbo I3, 180 hp | CR-V: 1.5L Turbo I4, 190 hp / 179 lb-ft Powertrain Choices — Escape: 4 options (1.5L turbo, 2.0L turbo, hybrid, plug-in hybrid) | CR-V: 2 options (gas turbo, hybrid) Top Available Gas Engine — Escape: 2.0L EcoBoost Turbo, 250 hp | CR-V: same 190-hp turbo across gas trims Hybrid Fuel Economy — Escape Hybrid: up to 39–44 mpg | CR-V Hybrid: up to 40 mpg combined (FWD) Plug-In Hybrid — Escape PHEV: 210 hp combined, ~37 mi electric range | Not offered on CR-V Max Towing — Escape: up to 3,500 lbs | CR-V: not rated for towing on most trims Max Cargo Volume — Escape: up to 65.4 cu ft | CR-V: up to 76.5 cu ft (class-leading) Trim Levels — Escape: 8 trims | CR-V: 6 trims Powertrain Variety: The Escape's Biggest Advantage This is where the two SUVs diverge the most. The CR-V offers two powertrain paths — a gas turbo four-cylinder or a hybrid — while the Escape gives buyers four distinct choices: the standard 1.5L EcoBoost turbo, an available 2.0L EcoBoost turbo with 250 horsepower for buyers who want more punch, a standard hybrid rated up to 39–44 mpg, and a plug-in hybrid capable of roughly 37 miles on electric power alone. If you want the flexibility to choose your power, efficiency, or electrification level without switching brands, the Escape offers an option the CR-V simply can't match: a genuine plug-in hybrid. Towing: An Advantage the CR-V Doesn't Offer The Escape's available turbocharged engine unlocks up to 3,500 lbs of towing capacity, a genuinely useful figure for hauling a small trailer, personal watercraft, or a couple of dirt bikes on weekends. The CR-V isn't rated for towing on most trims, making the Escape the more versatile choice for buyers who want light towing capability without stepping up to a larger SUV. To Be Fair: Where the CR-V Holds Its Own The CR-V isn't without real strengths. Its 76.5 cubic feet of maximum cargo volume is class-leading, giving it a real edge over the Escape's 65.4 cubic feet for buyers who prioritize hauling capacity above all else. The CR-V's standard engine also produces slightly more horsepower than the Escape's base engine (190 hp vs. 180 hp), and Honda's reputation for long-term reliability and strong resale value remains a genuine draw. For buyers who want maximum cargo space and a simpler two-powertrain lineup, the CR-V remains an excellent choice. The Verdict Both of these compact SUVs are strong, practical choices. But for buyers who want more powertrain flexibility, a genuine plug-in hybrid option, and real towing capability, the 2026 Ford Escape comes out ahead. The CR-V remains a strong pick for buyers who prioritize maximum cargo space and Honda's reliability reputation, but if capability and choice matter most, the Escape is the stronger overall package.

Ford Bronco Sport vs. Bronco: What's the Difference? It's one of the most common questions we hear at John Kennedy Ford of Conshohocken: what's actually different between the Ford Bronco Sport and the full-size Ford Bronco? They share a name, a retro-inspired design language, and an adventurous spirit, but underneath the similar looks, these are two genuinely different vehicles built for different types of drivers. Here's a complete breakdown to clear up the confusion once and for all. Quick Comparison: Bronco Sport vs. Bronco Starting MSRP — Bronco Sport: $33,840 | Bronco: $40,495 Platform — Bronco Sport: unibody (car-based), shares its architecture with the Ford Escape | Bronco: body-on-frame, purpose-built off-road chassis Doors and Roof — Bronco Sport: fixed doors and roof | Bronco: removable doors and roof, hardtop or soft top Standard Engine — Bronco Sport: 1.5L EcoBoost Turbo I3, 181 hp / 190 lb-ft | Bronco: 2.3L EcoBoost Turbo I4, 300 hp / 325 lb-ft Top Available Engine — Bronco Sport: 2.0L EcoBoost Turbo I4, 250 hp / 277 lb-ft (Badlands) | Bronco: 2.7L EcoBoost V6, 330 hp / 415 lb-ft (Raptor goes to 418 hp) Transmission — Bronco Sport: 8-speed automatic only | Bronco: 7-speed manual (with dedicated crawler gear) or 10-speed automatic Max Towing — Bronco Sport: up to 2,700 lbs | Bronco: up to 4,500 lbs (Raptor) Max Cargo Volume — Bronco Sport: up to 65.2 cu ft | Bronco (4-door): up to 146.5 cu ft Trim Levels — Bronco Sport: 4 trims (Big Bend, Heritage, Outer Banks, Badlands) | Bronco: 7 trims (Base, Big Bend, Outer Banks, Badlands, Heritage Edition, Stroppe Edition, Raptor) The Biggest Difference: What's Underneath This is the single most important distinction between these two SUVs, and it explains almost every other difference on this list. The Bronco Sport is built on a unibody platform — the same basic car-based architecture used by the Ford Escape — which makes it more compact, easier to park, and more car-like to drive around town. The full-size Bronco, on the other hand, uses a true body-on-frame design, the same fundamental construction method used by serious off-roaders and pickup trucks. That body-on-frame architecture is what allows the Bronco to offer removable doors and a removable roof, something the Bronco Sport's unibody construction simply doesn't support. Size, Power, and Everyday Practicality The Bronco Sport is the more compact, efficient, and budget-friendly option, starting at $33,840 with a standard turbocharged three-cylinder engine that's well-suited to daily commuting and light trail use. Every Bronco Sport comes standard with 4x4 and up to five G.O.A.T. Modes (Goes Over Any Type of Terrain), giving it genuine light off-road credibility in a package that's easy to live with every day. The full-size Bronco starts higher at $40,495 but delivers significantly more capability across the board: more standard horsepower (300 hp vs. 181 hp), more available power at the top of the lineup (up to 418 hp in the Raptor versus 250 hp in the Bronco Sport Badlands), more towing capacity, and dramatically more cargo space in four-door form. It also offers a genuine 7-speed manual transmission with a dedicated crawler gear — something you won't find anywhere in the Bronco Sport lineup, which is automatic-only. Which One Should You Choose? If you want a more affordable, easy-to-park SUV with genuine light off-road ability, standard 4x4, and lower running costs for daily commuting around Conshohocken and the Main Line, the Bronco Sport is the smarter choice. If you want the full open-air experience with removable doors and roof, serious trail capability, a manual transmission option, and significantly more power and cargo room, the full-size Bronco is built for you. Both wear the Bronco name proudly — they're just built for very different adventures.
