Golf

Around the beautiful town of Lady Lake, Florida, there are plenty of places to go golfing and enjoy a leisurely afternoon with friends and community members. Here are some recommendations from us at Nick Nicholas Ford on where you can spend a pleasant day golfing and socializing.

Orange Blossom Hills Country Club

This is the oldest 18-hole golf course in The Villages, stretching 6,213 yards and featuring beautiful old trees. You can easily navigate the course from the comfort of a golf cart and enjoy the scenery. The course challenges you to work with various clubs while also maintaining a leisurely pace. While here, you can also enjoy lunch at the club restaurant and take advantage of the putting and chipping green.

Lakes of Lady Lake Golf Course

The Lakes of Lady Lake Golf Course features four tees that are suitable for all skill levels, so you can feel comfortable as you work on your game. The course offers great value as well as great putting. It sits on a 4,174-yard track and is mostly a mix of Par 3s and 4s. This course has served the Lady Lake community since 1995 and is dedicated to providing a lovely experience to all.

Water Oak Golf Course

Located at the Water Oak Country Club on 300 acres of land, this course is meant to be a little challenging, but you can meet it at your own pace. The golf club also offers a clubhouse to socialize, a putting green, and a pro-shop with apparel and equipment so you can update your old clubs.

Lady Lake Golf Driving Range

Practice makes perfect, and there’s no better way to improve your game than taking the time to do so at the Lady Lake Golf Driving Range. Opened in October 2017, this driving range is staffed by volunteers and proceeds go to local charities. It is also golf cart accessible.

New Year, New Car: Resolve to Finally Get the Car Your Deserve

New Year, New Car at Nick Nicholas Ford in Inverness, FL

Make A New Year’s Resolution

A new year is just around the corner. And with it, comes the perfect opportunity to finally make those changes to your life that you know are for the best. One area of your life to consider is whether or not your current car is holding you back.  Perhaps you’ve skipped a trip because you car isn’t the most dependable, or spent money on a plane ticket and missed out on the scenic route because your vehicle just can’t cut it. Or maybe you’ve been putting off that home project that you’ve always dreamed of because acquiring the tools and supplies is too difficult in your current ride.

Enhance Your Versatility

No matter the reason, your car shouldn’t hold you back. Instead, it should enable you to live the kind of life you want most. Whether that means an adventurous trip to the mountains, or the ability to pick up everything you need to build that tree house for the kids, you deserve a vehicle that’s ready for everything you are.

This New Year, visit us at Nick Nicholas Ford to find the vehicle that will take you everywhere you want to go. Ford’s versatile SUVs all have one thing in common: they are expertly crafted to let you do all the things in life you want.

5 Best Features of the 2018 Ford F-150

Features of the 2018 Ford F-150

There is a whole lot to love about the new 2018 Ford F-150. It is America’s best-selling vehicle for a reason, after all. But if we had to narrow it down, we would say these are the five best features of the 2018 Ford F-150. Do you agree?

Military-Grade, Aluminum Alloy

By using high-strength, military-grade, aluminum alloy, Ford has ensured that the new F-150 is tough and durable but also highly efficient.

Advanced Engines

The 2018 Ford F-150 offers a wide range of powerful engines, including the 3.3-liter Ti-VCT V6, 2.7-liter EcoBoost®, 5.0-liter Ti-VCT V8, and 3.5-liter EcoBoost®, which produces 450 horsepower in the Ford F-150 Raptor.

A Fifth Engine

Coming in the spring of next year is a fifth engine option for the 2018 Ford F-150. You guessed it—it’s a diesel. The 3.0-liter Power Stroke® Turbo Diesel will likely help the F-150 achieve some segment-bests.

Best-in-Class Towing

Speaking of segment-bests, the 2018 Ford F-150 offers best-in-class towing of 13,200 pounds.

Remote Tailgate Release

This isn’t a segment best; it’s a segment-only. The class-exclusive remote tailgate release is operated via the key fob or an inside door switch for easy access.
