3. Ford F-Series (F-150, F-250, F-350)
Since 1903, the Ford Motor Company has revolutionized the way we view cars. They went through a lot throughout the years, from their moving assembly line and the people they used to pay $5 for the day to their soy foam sets and truck bodies made out of aluminum. Ford has come a long way, and people all over the world buy cars from this company.
If you’re a Ford car fan, you’re probably familiar with the F-Series. It seems like one of America’s favorites is actually the F-150, and it has been so for a lot of years.
But if the number of fatal crashes is one of the criteria that are most important to you when you think about getting a new car, you should know that all F-Series, but mainly the F-150, were responsible for a lot of fatal accidents.
For instance, the F-150, which is a very loved car, was involved in a lot of fatal crashes in the US, including in states such as Utah, Colorado, Georgia, Florida, and Nevada. Regardless of the number of disasters these cars were a part of, there were almost 910,000 units sold in 2018, so that leaves us with a question: Is it a good car? If you have a Ford at home, leave a comment down below and let us know what you think!

I think it is according to the driver.
My husband drives a diesel 2500 Dodge Ram with a crew cab and a shorter bed. He’s had the truck when he purchased it new in 2004, now it has over 500,000+ miles and it is still running strong today. He purchased it to pull our 2700 ft 5th wheel, complete with a 10 ft garage, that can carry a Smart Car in it. We know this because our good friend has driven his Smart Car up into the drive way ramp at the back of our trailer. It can also be a toy hauler and has an extra queen bed that comes down from the ceiling of garage. It can sleep 10.
Need to consider the total of these auto on road to those involved in fatal accidents. This is bad information once again.
It’s not the vehicle (in most cases) that causes the accident it’s driver error
the worst car i every had was a 2002 t-bird . own it for 13 years the last year i own the repairs cost was $12000.00 and it had only 85000 miles on it .trade in value on a mercedes was only $8600.00
I have driven Fords for years and have found them to be reliable and safe.
I enjoyed your article about unsafe vehicles. I do have a 2004 Ford Explorer, that I bought new in May of that year. I believe that way too many unnecessary vehicle deaths are caused because of government regulations.
CAFE standards are way too strict for car manufactures to make a safe vehicle. I don’t have a safe feeling driving a vehicle made out of plastic,aluminum, & rubber just for better gas mileage. Unreasonable restrictions on the weight and gas mileage for vehicles do not add up for manufacturing safe vehicles. As they say, “You Can’t Your Cake and Eat It Too”
