Ford

Ford has been an important part of automotive history for more than a century. Its own history centers around iconic models such as the hot-selling F-150 pickup and the sporty Mustang pony car. The Blue Oval brand stopped producing sedan and hatchback models such as the Focus and the Taurus in favor of SUVs and crossovers. It's now rolling out attractive redesigns of popular SUVs such as the Bronco Sport and the Explorer. The lineup also includes the compact Maverick pickup and the mid-size Ranger, but the latter lacks the refinement found in competitors such as the Honda Ridgeline or the Chevy Colorado.
