Honda Car Forum

Well, it all depends on what kind of vehicle you are looking for. Honda makes an excellant car, whereas ford does'nt. But Ford makes an excellant truck. Honda makes good truck too, but if you are lokking for a heavy duty truck go with the Ford. But if you are looking for a car I whould buy a honda.

I would have to say Chevy dominates the trucks and SUV segment, or at least they now have the best. Saturn WILL dominate the midsize sedan segment with the Aura, and Honda will dominate the Minivans with the odyssey, but there will be futura competition with Chryslers '08 Town and Country

Go with Honda.

I would pick Honda, I have owned and driven several makes and models of ford and honda. I was always having to fix the fords with less than 80,000 miles on them. The hondas I've owned all have run well with very little cost My current Honda has 257,000 miles on it and runs great. I had a taurus with about 70,000 miles and I had to replace the trans ,head gaskets,heater core, and several other items and it died shortly after each repair with another problem.So I (from personal experience of ownership and being a mechanic) would choose Honda.

From a brand standpoint, yes. Honda produces vehicles that are more reliable, depreciate more slowly, and on the whole, last longer. Ford is a good brand and their trucks are known for their durability, but in the passenger car market Honda is a dominate force over Ford and the rest of the domestics.Hondas are NOT cheaper to repair than Fords (most imports cost more to repair from a parts standpoint alone.) Although the parts cost more in most cases they need to be replaced less frequently.

hell yeah honda is better

Yes and the stats tell the story.Honda and Acura report record sales each monthFord reports more layoffs and recallsWith them facts, its plain to see.

well heres the deal ive owned hondas and ive owned fords. ive driven like a bat out of hell in both and the honda stood up better but im still buying another ford truck when i get back in the states.(im in iraq)

ford is made for power. in my opinion any company can slap power to car but it takes REAL skills to reduce emission which honda has been doing the whole time!

I think Honda is better than Ford but agree with what others have written regarding the needs of the driver. Though I like the Ridgeline, I think Ford has more powerful trucks. The truck segment is still relatively new for Honda. Overall, Honda cars scored better than Ford in terms of number of repairs after 5 years (Consumer Reports). Hondas also don't depreciate as quickly as Fords.
