![Ford Posts Highest Pre-Tax Profit In A Decade Despite European Losses](https://img.money.com/2015/06/1280-ford.jpeg)
*<> on January 29, 2013 in Los Angeles, California.*

The 112-year-old automotive company is partnering with car-sharing companies [Getaround](https://www.getaround.com/) (in America) and easyCar Club (in the U.K.) to test an all-Ford, peer-to-peer car-sharing service for drivers. The test will run through November in six cities: San Francisco; Berkeley; Oakland; Portland, Ore.; Washington, D.C.; and Chicago. Ford will directly invite around 14,000 American and 12,000 British customers to try out the service. GM launched a similar car-sharing program in 2012, but ended it not long after.
