Timing is everything when buying a vehicle. With recent tariffs impacting the cost of imported cars, a new Ford model built right here in the U.S. offers greater value than ever. In this blog, the team at Folsom Lake Ford breaks down how tariffs are affecting prices, and why now is the perfect time to explore American-made models from Ford.

Tariffs Are Driving Up Prices on Foreign Cars

The federal government recently imposed a 25 percent tariff on imported vehicles and parts, raising prices on many popular brands made abroad. Even vehicles partially assembled in the U.S. but relying on foreign components are seeing cost increases. That means buyers looking at non-domestic models could pay thousands more.

These changes make American-made vehicles more financially attractive and easier to service long-term. This goes double for a manufacturer like Ford, who is known for their high durability and performance standards.

American-Made Ford Models Worth Considering

Folsom Lake Ford proudly carries a lineup of vehicles built in U.S. plants, which remain largely unaffected by these tariffs. Popular options include:

  • Ford F-150 – Built in Michigan and Missouri
  • Ford Explorer – Built in Illinois
  • Ford Mustang – Built in Michigan
  • Ford Ranger – Built in Michigan
  • Ford Super Duty – Built in Kentucky

Whether you need a roomy SUV for a growing family or a powerhouse truck to help out at the worksite, the Ford brand has you covered. These models offer dependable quality while helping support American jobs and manufacturing.
