Western automobile brand, Ford Motors, has always been synonymous with innovative and superior quality. Every year, its vehicles always manage to find a high or top spot in motoring trends rankings for the best picks in certain classifications. Hence, it's no wonder Ford enjoys consistently high sales compared to other auto brands.

While most are largely familiar with the luxurious SUVs and cars of Ford, its trucks are just as popular among commercial organizations that require heavy duty trucks for their mobile operations. Apart from being really spacious, these trucks have the most impressive towing and cargo capacities. Listed below are some Ford trucks that are utilized for both commercial and personal purposes.
