Sales up 76,897 this year
The F-Series, an array of powerful pickups, always ranks near the top of the US car sales charts. Its gains this year have been a big part of Ford's overall revival story. The company's sales are up 18 percent, compared to 2009's pace. Add in some momentum for the Fusion and Taurus sedans, and Ford's share of the US market isn't far behind that of long-time rival GM.
