Pop singers, presidents, NBA legends, you just never know who’ll turn up behind the wheel of a Ford. Here’s five of ’em!
When it comes to celebs and Ford, we usually think of Steve McQueen and the Mustang he made famous, or John Cena and the GT he made infamous. The Mustang alone is an easy car to pair with a famous name, as it’s an all-American icon in its own right.
However, it’s not as often you’ll find a celeb in a Ford truck or SUV. They’re out there, though. Here are five such owners, including a few you’d never expect.
George W. Bush
Former U.S. President George W. Bush is known these days for his oil paintings, which he work on out in the Texas prairie. Of course, to get around the ranch, he needs a Ford truck, like his 2009 F-150 King Ranch Super Crew which racked up $90,000 for charity at Barrett-Jackson’s 2017 Palm Beach auction.
Cameron Aubernon's path to automotive journalism began in the early New '10s. Back then, a friend of hers thought she was an independent fashion blogger.
Aubernon wasn't, so she became one, covering fashion in her own way for the next few years.
From there, she's written for: Louisville.com/Louisville Magazine, Insider Louisville, The Voice-Tribune/The Voice, TOPS Louisville, Jeffersontown Magazine, Dispatches Europe, The Truth About Cars, Automotive News, Yahoo Autos, RideApart, Hagerty, and Street Trucks.
Aubernon also served as the editor-in-chief of a short-lived online society publication in Louisville, Kentucky, interned at the city's NPR affiliate, WFPL-FM, and was the de facto publicist-in-residence for a communal art space near the University of Louisville.
