Man shot while driving truck on Barton Street in stable condition

A man shot while driving on Barton Street East over the weekend is now in stable, non-life-threatening condition. The man was behind the wheel of a Ford F-150 pickup truck on Barton, near Harmony Avenue, when he was shot at by two suspects who were on foot around 7:30 p.m. Saturday. The victim was the driver, who was stopped at the time of the shooting, said Det. Const. Dan Jaworski of the shooting response team . Police are not disclosing who was in the vehicle with him. Two suspects fled on foot. On Monday police released an image of the suspects, who ran south after the shooting. After he was shot, the victim drove to nearby Centre on Barton mall to call for help. He underwent emergency surgery. At the scene, the pickup truck could be seen in the middle of a taped-off area of the parking lot with the passenger door left open.

Top 10 Most Owned Car Brands in the United States

When it comes to what Americans drive, it's not just about horsepower or looks - it's about trust. Currently, that trust is split between U.S. brands and foreign automakers. A recent analysis by Insurify, based on over 97 million insurance quotes, shows that a majority of Americans, 55.4%, own foreign-branded vehicles, while 44.6% drive domestic ones. This list of the top 10 most owned car brands in the United States reflects a country that's fiercely loyal to a few familiar names, while also open to international newcomers that offer value and dependability. Here's how it breaks down in 2025. Chevrolet is the most owned car brand in the United States, accounting for 12.5% of all vehicles on the road. Headquartered in Detroit, Chevrolet is an American company known for its broad lineup, from trucks like the Silverado to budget-friendly sedans and crossovers. The brand's deep roots in American car culture and its nationwide dealer network help it stay firmly planted at the top, especially in regions like the Midwest, where domestic brands still dominate. Ford ranks second among the most owned car brands in the country, with 11.7% of U.S. vehicles bearing the blue oval. Like Chevrolet, Ford is an American manufacturer with a legacy dating back more than a century. The Ford F-150 remains the most popular vehicle model in 21 states, a clear sign of Ford's dominance in the pickup segment. With newer models like the Maverick and the all-electric Mustang Mach-E, Ford continues to evolve while maintaining its strong hold on American roads. Toyota is the most popular foreign car brand in the United States, making up 10.5% of all vehicles on the road. Based in Japan, Toyota has earned a reputation for long-lasting reliability and fuel efficiency. Its lineup, which includes staples like the Camry, Corolla, and RAV4, is a favorite in coastal states, where foreign automakers dominate the market. Toyota's growing hybrid and electric offerings are likely to strengthen its position in the years to come. Nissan holds 8.6% of the U.S. vehicle market, making it the second-most owned foreign brand in the country. Also based in Japan, Nissan has long appealed to budget-conscious drivers looking for affordable and practical options. Popular models like the Altima, Rogue, and Sentra are commonly seen in urban and suburban areas, and the brand maintains strong loyalty despite some recent dips in perceived quality and reliability. Honda vehicles make up 8.3% of the American market. Headquartered in Japan, Honda is known for producing dependable, fuel-efficient cars like the Civic, Accord, and CR-V. The brand's vehicles are particularly popular among young drivers and commuters, and in some cases, Hondas are even more "American" than domestic brands, with some models like the Accord containing a higher percentage of U.S.-sourced parts than a Ford F-150. Hyundai has carved out 5.7% of the U.S. market and continues to grow. Based in South Korea, Hyundai was once seen as a budget alternative but is now recognized as a leader in design, tech, and warranty coverage. With successful models like the Tucson, Elantra, and the Ioniq EV series, Hyundai is attracting a new wave of buyers who want value without sacrificing features. Kia follows closely behind Hyundai, making up 5.1% of the cars on American roads. Also headquartered in South Korea, Kia has followed a similar trajectory, shedding its budget image in favor of bold design and loaded interiors. With vehicles like the Sportage, Telluride, and Forte, Kia has become a go-to for families and young professionals alike. The brand's growing electric offerings suggest its popularity may only increase. Dodge vehicles account for 5.0% of the U.S. market. As a long-standing American brand under the Stellantis umbrella, Dodge is best known for its muscular sedans like the Charger and Challenger. Although the brand's lineup is shrinking, its identity as a performance-first automaker continues to attract drivers who crave power and personality, even as those vehicles inch closer to extinction in the EV era. Jeep makes up 3.9% of the U.S. vehicle market. Also an American brand under Stellantis, Jeep has long traded on its rugged image and off-road heritage. Vehicles like the Wrangler and Grand Cherokee have earned cult followings, and Jeep's expansion into electrified models shows it's trying to bridge its legacy with future trends. However, the brand's reliance on foreign parts may complicate its "Made in America" image in the years ahead. GMC accounts for 2.6% of the vehicles on American roads. A division of General Motors, this American brand specializes in trucks and SUVs with an upscale twist. Models like the Sierra, Yukon, and Acadia appeal to drivers who want durability without giving up comfort. While GMC has a smaller market share compared to others on this list, its loyal base and presence in truck-heavy regions keep it relevant. While five of the top ten brands are headquartered in the United States, foreign automakers still hold a slight majority overall. This divide is mostly regional, with states like Michigan and Texas skewing heavily domestic, while coastal areas overwhelmingly favor foreign brands like Toyota and Honda. But the "domestic vs. foreign" debate is getting harder to define. Many American-brand vehicles rely on foreign parts, and some foreign-brand cars are made with more U.S.-sourced materials than their domestic rivals. For example, only 45% of the Ford F-150's content is U.S.-made, compared to 55–60% for the Honda Accord. With new tariffs raising the cost of imported vehicles and parts, these distinctions could start to matter more, both at the dealership and on your insurance bill. Still, at the end of the day, most Americans don't care where an automaker is headquartered. They care whether it works, and these 10 brands have proven they do. Copyright 2025 The Arena Group, Inc.
