Volvo is owned by Ford. Isuzu builds the Duramess.

I'll look at the commercial a little closer next time.

Actually, Volvo Car Corporation and Volvo Group own the Volvo brand in a joint trademark company. So technically Ford doesn't own the truck business but does have joint ownership on the Trademark name Volvo. I'm sure if one dug a little, you would find that Ford has to own the trademarked company which owns Volvo Group as well as Volvo cars but it's hard to dig at that level.

Get this, in a recent commercial all Chevy could compare against the other two MFG's is that Chevy's got the only automatic rear locker. Geee, and you wonder why they are going under.
