Sales of F-Series pickups and SUVs helped Ford Motor outperform its Detroit crosstown rivals as well as the auto industry in the third quarter.

"The industry had a very sharp recovery from Q2 to Q3," Mark LaNeve, Ford vice president of U.S. marketing, sales and service, told CNBC on Friday. "It's been a crazy year but the industry has been resilient and our dealers have done a great job."

Ford said its third-quarter sales were up 27% relative to the previous three months. It also reported its best third quarter sales of pickups since 2005, according to the company.
