It seems to me that a lot of truck owners on this site and in general have come from Ford families and so they stick with that. Obviously, some people grow up in families that are brand loyal to one car company and others grow up in families that don't have any car company loyalties at all. So I'm curious how many people are from Ford families, how many went against the grain with families that are brand loyal to other car companies, and how many were in families that didn't have loyalty to any one specific brand.

Personally, I grew up in a household that was strictly Dodge, Chrysler, or Jeep with the exception of some Corvettes in recent years because my step-dad's father was a Chrysler dealer so he continued on with that. I'm personally not brand loyal to any car companies. I'll buy what fits my needs/wants the best for whatever time I'm purchasing. My current truck was my first opportunity to get my own vehicle (i.e. not a vehicle passed down to me from another family member), and I'm extremely happy with it

My grandparents were a ford family, my mom was a ford person, my dad was a chevy person, my uncle is a chevy person, and I stuck with the ford side

I'm the only one in the family with the ford bug... My brother has an F150, but he also has a Blazer. My uncle had an F150, but he also has a Yukon. My mom and sister drive Saturns. I've got an F150, and once I've got the money, I'm buying a Taurus SHO or a Fusion, (used), and then i'm going to buy a Mustang, of any vintage. Except Mustang II's, can't get over the front end... And once I've got all that, a new F150 so I can turn my current into my play thing.

Now, none of this will happen for a few (lot) more years, but... a kid can dream.

My family was all Chevy. My dad refused to own anything but a chevy and I did too until they went begging Obama for a bail out then turned around and donated money to the democRATS. Seriously I love my new Ford and dads no longer here to dis own me lol

In Trucks/SUVs Ive had Chevy, GMC and Ford.
When I buy it usually depends on what I'm looking for that year and who is willing to deal.

Fords were the work trucks, chevys were in the race cars.

I bleed Ford Blue for the past 20 years, before that mostly Fords with everything else and I mean everything. My folks drove what ever Fords, Chev, Plymouth.

Even though theres 4 Fords in my immediate family were not really brand loyal.

My dad used to be into Mopars for over 20 years until he got an Olds, then he had two of those and now has a Focus and loves it.

My mom has a Hyundai Santa Fe and one of my brothers has a Dodge Ram.

My other brother has an '01 F150 and had a Focus before it but he doesnt seem to be brand loyal despite owning two Fords.

I currently own two Fords and while I love my truck I cant say that Id only get a Ford when it comes time to replace it. Ive owned 3 Fords, 3 Chevy's, an Olds, a Plymouth and a Hyundai in my lifetime.
