I feel like GM and Ford have switched places in the past 10-15 years though (especially after the bailout). Ford has stepped up their game, whereas GM has declined. 15 years ago, it was different. So, I guess we'll see how this list looks in 15 years from now :)
This is just anecdotal evidence, but earlier this year, my 2016 Explorer was getting body work done on it, and they gave me a GMC Acadia rental car. The difference in quality and handling was like night and day. The GMC felt cheap on the interior, and had "mushy" handling. I didn't find it pleasant to drive. I couldn't speak to the engine because mine is a Sport with the EcoBoost 3.5, and the Acadia was just an NA engine. I looked up the pricing on it, and it was comparable to the Explorer of the same trim level. Not sure why anybody would buy one over the other other than brand loyalty.
