Ford Trucks

The Ford F-Series is a series of light-duty trucks and medium-duty trucks that have been marketed and manufactured by Ford Motor Company since 1948. The F-Series also includes chassis cab trucks and commercial vehicles. In 1999, to bridge the gap between the pickup line and the medium-duty trucks, the F-250 and F-350 became the Ford Super Duty vehicles.

The first-generation F-Series pickup was introduced in 1948 as a replacement for the previous car-based pickup line introduced in 1942. The F-Series was sold in eight different weight ratings, with pickup, panel truck, cab-over engine, conventional truck, and school bus chassis body styles. A change to the F-Series naming scheme would remain in place to the present day. The half-ton F-1 became the F-100. The F-2 and F-3 were combined into the F-250 while the F-4 became the F-350. Conventional F-Series trucks were F-500 to F-900; COE chassis were C-Series trucks.
