At Chapman Ford, it's more than a job to us. Our history is closely aligned with Ford, so this is a passion of tradition that we take seriously. For almost 110 years, the Chapman family has been selling Ford products to Ohio drivers—that's four generations! So you can bet we know our Fords here at Chapman Ford!
The Ford Motor Company officially began in 1903; by 1908, the first Model T was rolling off the lineup in Detroit, Michigan. By 1913, George Chapman of the Chapman family decided to take his passion for automobiles and turn it into a business, opening up one of the first Ford dealerships in Ohio. A year later, Ford began offering a $5-a-day wage, leading to increased production; Ford was well on its way to becoming an automotive icon, and the Chapman family was there for the ride.
Our first dealership opened in Plain City, and business was good, allowing us to expand in 1918 to a newly-built facility near the current location of the Plain City Library. The business moved once again in 1935, relocating to downtown Plain City. Further expansion in 1946 saw an additional facility open near the edge of town.
By 1978, Ford was turning out muscle cars and rugged SUV archetypes, and the Chapman business was steadily growing right along with it. A new location was opened in Maryville just as Bob Chapman Jr., of the third generation of Chapmans, took over. Today, the fourth generation—headed by Joe Chapman—continues to greet Ohio drivers at the door.
Thanks to the strength and endurance of the iconic Ford Motor Company, the Chapman family has been able to endure the ups and downs of the American economy and continue to provide first-class products to Columbus drivers. Even today, Chapman Ford is committed to providing "best in class" with every Ford we sell.
Whether you're looking for a compact crossover or looking to go electric, Ford is something for every driver. If you want both, then you'll want the Mustang Mach-E.
This electric crossover takes style cues from the classic muscle car of the same name. Drivers will appreciate the ease and convenience of going electric thanks to its powerful performance and user-friendly technology. The Mach-E is streamlined and ready to go—and when it comes to recharging, relax; charging your EV is as simple as charging your phone.
Need something bigger? Check out the award-winning Ford F-150 Lightning, the first EV truck in the Ford family. With increased strength and performance, the Lightning is the electric truck you've been waiting for. The Lightning is there whether you're in the field or the grid has gone down and you need power for your house.
Onboard power outlets let you plug in power tools for work or light up your campsite at night. With exceptional towing and hauling abilities, and the option for DC quick charging, the Lightning is always ready to go when you are.
Ford has also expanded their eco-friendly lineup with a Maverick truck hybrid. The popular compact truck is now greener than ever, thanks to its new hybrid engine, which can get you hundreds of miles on a single tank of gas.
Looking for a classic? You can't do much better than the iconic Mustang. This sleek sports car unleashes speed and delivers modern style for drivers who want a little something extra from their daily ride. Get all the speed and the latest tech from Ford when you get behind the wheel of a new Mustang.
The Ford Escape is a compact crossover SUV that seats five and is well-balanced in both performance and convenience. Expect flexible seating and cargo space, and its good fuel economy makes the Escape popular with drivers who want a small friendly SUV for everyday driving.
Then we've got the Bronco and the Bronco Sport. What's the difference? Both are modeled at the classic Bronco but have seen significant updates over the years.
The Bronco Sport is a four-door SUV, while the Bronco can be had with a two or four-door configuration. This can make a difference if you have small kids or if you're a solo driver. Both models offer seating for five, but the Bronco is a tad longer than the Bronco Sport, offering a bit more cargo room and leg space.
The Ford Explorer is a midsize SUV that seats up to five. Drivers will enjoy a roomy cabin that provides plenty of cargo space for daily essentials or additional gear or work materials. The Explorer has sporty good looks and a paired-down streamlined interior for drivers who simply want to get in and go with no frills.
The Ford Edge is a midsize SUV known for its comfort and airy cabin. It has seating for up to five passengers across two rows, and it comes packed with lots of standard tech, comfort, and safety features, giving this SUV a lot of value for drivers who are looking to make their dollar go further.
Need more space? Go for the Expedition, Ford's answer to the full-size SUV. Expect a large cabin with seating across three rows for up to eight passengers. Fold down all the seats to take advantage of this SUV's generous cargo space. The Expedition is known to be a capable and reliable SUV that's great for growing families.
The Ford Ranger is one size up from the Ford Maverick but is likewise a compact truck. Don't let its size fool you, though, as the Ranger is more than capable of tackling everyday jobs or heading off-road. Get plenty of power and performance while enjoying the truck's thoroughly designed interior that gives you plenty of additional storage plus supportive seating for up to five passengers.
The Ford F-150 has been the nation's best-selling vehicle for decades. The F-150 is a formidable workhorse, taking you from the field to your home and off again on a weekend adventure at the drop of a hat. A great selection of powertrains and trim choices make it easy for drivers to pick and choose their preferred level of comfort and power. If you want a full-size truck that does it all, the F-150 is what you're after.
If you need a serious powerhouse, then you need a Super Duty. These are the heavy-duty pickups of the F-Series family, the F-250 and F-350, with the latter being the stronger—but the F-250 isn't far behind. You'll get industrial-strength hauling and towing combined with a high-end cabin and the latest technology to help make your tough jobs a little more manageable.
