Fords → Fords (disambiguation) – While Google (main) and images do return quite a few results for the car I don't think (like Orange/Oranges) that people would search for the car with "Fords" the crossing is clearly primary by PT#2. The crossing also gets over 10x the views of the other 2 places [[1]]. I would note that I don't think that Ford has a primary topic but the discussion at Talk:Ford (disambiguation)#Requested move 26 August 2018 was quite clear.

- Oppose - Ford as a car brand can easily be pluralized Red Slash 23:31, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose, but merge and redirect Fords to Ford (disambiguation). bd2412 T 19:45, 12 May 2019 (UTC)
- Comment I would note that the Commons category is at Commons:Category:Fords but at Commons:Category talk:Fords it has been pointed out that it has collected Ford vehicles so indeed it seems that (at least) in terms of general wording, the cars are ambiguous with "Fords".

- Oppose, and also oppose the merger proposed by BD2412. This provides a succinct dab page for the relatively few links to subjects actually called "Fords", as well as to Ford Motor Company (yes, talk of plural Fords is very much a thing) as well as the river crossing concept. All in all the current page is a very nice page for all. — Amakuru (talk) 22:59, 17 May 2019 (UTC)
