Now for the F part,it means Ford,the Ford trucks used to be named F-1 F2 and so on to F8,made untill 1948,when they changed the name to F-100,which was also called the Ford Bonus-Built.When they were first produced,some of them were called Model AA,TT and so forth.I know the F series sounds kind of redundant using the name Ford then the F,but thats what they did.

I like the F series naming idea.
I hope FORD does not start using names for the F series trucks.
If the Ranger gets replaced with a larger truck, I hope it gets the F-100 name with a Ranger trim level - kinda retro/old school.
It is cool that Ford used F series trim levels for naming there smaller trucks.
Ranger/Explorer.
What would Ford call the F-150 if it were given a name?
Lariat maybe.

I see where the T=Toyota and C=Chevrolet but how does K=General Motors (GMC)?
