Drive the Power
If you are a 4x4 enthusiast no one will know the excitement you feel when hearing the words ‘Ford Raptor”. At CMH Ford Hatfield, we feel exactly the same way ”“ The most anticipated arrival of this BEAST was a little over two months ago. The interesting thing about its arrival was that our customers kind of knew it was arriving but did not really know when. That doesn’t seem to make sense right? But basically because of the model’s scarcity and the limited amount that was produced, you really had to be a fan to know more about its arrival.
Fortunately because we at CMH Ford Hatfield are able to house these, even if it is for a short period of time, we definitely knew when they were arriving and we couldn’t wait to take a drive in one. The first exterior impression is it’s BIG, and has a presence like no other bakkie out there. Once we got into the vehicle we were even more excited to know that it pulls away smoothly, absorbs the bumps, accelerates amazingly but slows down with ease.
The Ford Raptor is definitely not a robot to robot kind of vehicle. It’s the kind that you want to take on a much longer drive. Not only to enjoy the comfortability but to feel the power too. One of the most appreciated things about the Ford Raptor is its suspension ”“ definitely out of this world. Someone may ask, how is the fuel consumption? And we realised true Ford Raptor fans do not really care lol.
There is a lot we can say about the popular Ford Raptor but that means you won’t visit us anytime soon at CMH Ford Hatfield. So, make a turn to find out more about the vehicle and if you lucky to find one on our showroom floor, you are guaranteed a test drive.

One of the most appealing characteristics about the Fiesta is how it integrates small car fun into a large car sophistication, this holds true from the ride and handling experience of a Ford Fiesta. It may be a hatchback, but the Fiesta’s ability to create fun vibe during the most mundane journey is most endearing.
The 1.0 Ecoboost engines are smooth and quiet. Even when you accelerate hard, you hear less noise as compared to its rivals. However, if you are looking for the complete HOT-HATCH experience, the Fiesta ST is definitely something to consider.

CMH Kempster FORD Pretoria
For about two weeks every summer between 1914 and 1924, a group of friends who called themselves the Four Vagabonds would climb into their Model Ts and hit the open road, travelling to some of the United States' most scenic areas, stopping off and setting up overnight camps along the way.
But these weren't your average Americans. They were none other than Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Harvey Firestone, and John Burroughs. And the motorcade of up to 50 vehicles, which transported the celebrity Vagabonds, sometimes their wives, their household staff, and all the equipment they could possibly need for a comfortable holiday, was captured by Ford Motor Company photographers.
These high profile 'glamping' adventures undertaken by pre-eminent members of society fired public imagination. And the phenomenon of road tripping as an affordable way for ordinary families to satisfy their wanderlust soon spread to other parts of the world, including South Africa.
With almost 750,000km of roads criss-crossing the country - the tenth largest road network globally according to the South African National Roads Agency Limited (SANRAL), and by far the largest on the continent - it's no wonder road tripping has become such a popular way for generations of South Africans to vacation.
Ford Motor Company of Southern Africa believes that the four pioneers of the original American road trip would whole-heartedly approve of the following tips for modern motorists wanting to get the most out of their own family road trips today.
Burroughs
As a naturalist and nature essayist, active in the US conservation movement, John Burroughs would advise you to use the unique opportunity of a road trip to discover and explore places of natural beauty, as a chance to learn more about the geological and cultural history of places you haven't been before.
Whilst planning your route, look up the tourist attractions you'll be passing along the way and incorporate the most appealing ones into your itinerary. Many of the newly constructed hotels of yesteryear are still in business as historic B&B tourism destinations today, and breaking up long trips into smaller chunks - with one or two overnight stays en route to your destination, interspersed with some sightseeing - not only reduces driving fatigue and back seat boredom, but makes for a much more enjoyable and memorable holiday.
The Automobile Association of South Africa (AA) recommends reserving overnight accommodation in advance, especially during peak travel periods like Easter.
Firestone
As the founder of the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company, one of the first global makers of automobile tyres, Harvey Firestone would advise you to have your car's wheel balancing and alignment checked before heading off, to ensure a smooth and safe trip, and not to forget to check the condition of your spare tyre too. Punctures happen to the best of us, at the worst of times. Just remember, spare tyres aren't designed for long distances or high speeds, so once you have replaced a punctured tyre with the spare, you need to visit a tyre technician to fix or replace the original tyre as soon as possible.
You should only do a final tyre pressure check once your car is fully loaded, and when the tyres are still cool. The optimal tyre pressures, which you'll find printed on a sticker inside your driver's door, will help improve vehicle safety and maintain fuel efficiency.
Edison
A world renowned inventor whose name is synonymous with the electric light bulb, Thomas Edison was also the self-appointed navigator on the Vagabonds' adventures, with nothing but a compass and a handful of atlases to guide the motorcade!
His advice to the modern day road tripper would be to familiarise yourself with all the marvellous tech features of your car, and take full advantage of navigation apps like Google Maps and Waze, accessed either on your smartphone or your car's built-in infotainment system, like Ford's cutting edge SYNC 3 *. For parents travelling with small kids, a visual display showing estimated travel and arrival time could even be the silver bullet you've been searching for to silence the age-old "Are we there yet?" chorus from the back seat.
Ford
And last but certainly not least, captain of industry, business magnate, and founder of the Ford Motor Company himself, Henry Ford would advise you to make sure your car is in tip-top shape before hitting the open road. Be sure to take it in for a thorough inspection at your local dealership, where they will check all the necessary parts for damage and replace them if necessary, so your car can perform at maximum efficiency.
Also visit the AA's website for a list of Toll Fees and Toll Plaza Locations, as well as a current Road Conditions Report, which gives you a heads up on any road works that may be taking place, which could result in detours or delays to your journey.
At CMH Kempster Ford Randburg we care about your safety and that of your family. Take care on your travels this festive season and stay safe. Take your time and enjoy the adventure.
From our Family at CMH Kempster Ford Randburg to Yours we wish you a safe and enjoyable holiday.
