Ford Trucks F-1 Pickup

Ford's bold post-war truck redesign launched the F-Series name with a "Million Dollar Cab" that was wider, more comfortable, and more stylish than anything that had preceded it. The F-1 (half-ton) through F-8 (five-ton) offered a complete commercial range, establishing the F-Series hierarchy that endures to this day.
