When the 2019 SEMA opens this year, Ford’s display will represent the largest original equipment manufacturer exhibit at the show.

Ford wants to jump on the trend of vehicle customization. It makes sense with sales of new vehicles starting to slow in pace in 2019. Owners tend to improve cars they like, rather than take a chance on something they might not like. (Which will also include the 2019 Ford Ranger with various mods.)

“There’s a growing hunger for consumers to personalize their SUVs, which have a huge range of possibilities from lowered street rides to off-road overlanding. As the latest versions of Escape and Explorer continue to provide buyers with even more options for what they want, the aftermarket is a great place to see just how much more there is out there.” ~ said Eric Cin, global director, Ford vehicle personalization and accessories
