Ford Cars & Company Information

Ford expands an winning formula.

Introduction If you still think full-size pickup trucks

are crude compared to their passenger car counterparts, it means that (a)

you haven't been paying attention the last 10 years and (b) you haven't

seen the new generation of Ford F-Series trucks.

Sophisticated tough on the outside, thoughtfully comfortable within,

with an overhead cam V8 under the hood and an imposing range of safety

and convenience features, these pickups are the industry pacesetters, and

for good reason.

It's a little bit of a contradiction in terms to think of "truck"

in the same sentence with "cutting edge, aerodynamic styling,"

but with the new Ford F-Series, we think it works.

a major, major going over. Most obvious is the rounded snout, raked windshield

and overall smooth look. But the big changes were underneath, with a completely

new front suspension, new frame and new family of engines.

Ford's F-Series line includes the lighter-duty F-150, medium-duty F-250

and heavy-duty F-350. initially, the new look and accompanying improvements

applied only to the F-150, but for 1997 they're extended to and F-250 models

rated under 8500 GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating). The heavy-duty F-350

versions remain with the previous styling and mechanicals; if you want

a crewcab, dual rear wheels, or the 7.3-liter diesel, you have to go with

the "old-look" F-350. It's due for its own major redesign within

a year or so. Next Page
