So they’re going to call the battery trucks F-25s since they’re about 1/6 as useful as an F-150?it will be interesting. Since the eV trucks are less capable than the gas ones, it woukd be reasonable to have an F-100, F-200, etc for the EV line.
Years ago there was an F-100, I guess a low line version of the 150? Rebrand that into something else more capable, most folks who had/knew about 100 series trucks are gone or forgot about them…
I recall the gas tank inside the cab issue was not resolved up until the F-150 came out in 1975. The 1973 version had it for sure.Ford has put priority on being ahead of the competition for the EV transition. They've considered their competition foreign models & less of domestic auto makers. Specifically Japanese auto manufacturers. At least that's what I glean from their position of going so far into EV manufacturing. It's funny & interesting at the same time that GM invested huge amounts of money for their gasoline ICE vehicles for the next several years.
The F-150 was introduced has a more capable version of the F-100. My gramps had a 1963 F-100. I remember the gas tank being behind the seat & a wood bed.
That's right!
Hey, you are talking about my daily driver. I have a ‘97 F250 extended cab 5.4 with the 7-bolt wheels. Still has the original power steering pump, starter, AC compressor and water pump. I replaced the original working alternator a few months ago just because I didn’t want a failure in the road. I’ve done quite a bit of hard towing with it and has the original transmission. It uses no oil and I’ve recorded 20 mpg several times on the open road. This truck also has 300K miles on it.You talking about the elusive 7 lug 97-99 F-250's?

haha Nice ride! Believe it or not my brother-in-laws neighbor has TWO of them..Hey, you are talking about my daily driver. I have a ‘97 F250 extended cab 5.4 with the 7-bolt wheels.

Every now and then, people on this site mention that the 2-valve 5.4 motors give some people a woody. They are talking about my truck.
Is that an OEM emblem for the Heavy Payload package?
the f100 were unibody design the bed and cab were one welded together. it was only meant for very light hauling.
The unibodies were shortlived and only in the early 60's. That 70's F100 was at least a decade later than the unibodies.
