No Retirement In Sight For F-Series
Ford F-Series Celebrates its 65th anniversary this year; most popular line of pickups ever
Front-end loaders and backhoes may have replaced hand shovels on today’s construction jobsite, but the Ford F-Series is still front-and-center even after 65 years.
On January 16, 1948, the Ford Motor Company publicly revealed the iconic F-1 pickup, beginning the F-Series legacy of tough trucks. Since then, more than 32 million trucks have proudly worn the F-Series badge.
These legendary trucks have been the best-selling pickups for 36 consecutive years, and America’s overall best-selling vehicle for 31 years.
As Ford looks forward to the future of Built Ford Tough, it is appropriate to celebrate the 1948 Ford F-1 pickup that started it all.
Happy 65th anniversary and long may you run.
