Off-Road Features

The East Kootenays aren't paved all the way through. Good thing Ford isn't either.  From the Bronco's trail-rated GOAT modes to the F-150's four-wheel drive and locking rear differential, Ford's off-road capability is engineered for terrain that tests it. Whether you're heading up a forestry service road near Sparwood, accessing backcountry from Canal Flats, or navigating a gravel road to a Fernie cabin in spring -- the right spec makes a real difference. Our team can walk you through the off-road packages on Bronco, Bronco Sport, Ranger, and F-150 Tremor.

Adventure Begins Where the Pavement Ends

British Columbia was made for adventure -- steep climbs, forest trails, mountain passes, and unpaved roads that test the limits of every driver. At Nelson Ford, we know the right vehicle doesn't just get you there -- it gets you beyond.

Ford's off-road lineup -- from the FX4 Off-Road Package to the rugged Tremor® and Raptor® models -- is built for drivers who crave capability, confidence, and control no matter where the trail leads.
