Highboy

In reading the 73-79 forums I see several references to a * Highboy* f-150 4x4.
Would someone tell me what Highboy means?
Thanks,Seneca

My truck's name is Knarly.

The FAQ thread at the top of the forum goes into detail about Highboys. 'Highboy' is a non-Ford nickname given to the 67-77 F250 4x4 pickups because they sat so high from the factory. It was not an option package or special suspension - all 67-77 F250 4x4s were made that way.
