9. It gave birth to the Explorer, and rebirth to the Ranger
- Both beloved nameplates first became associated with the F-Series in the 1960s as styling packages.The Ranger, though, was previously the base-model Edsel in the late 1950s and consequently went down with the proverbial ship. After its stint as a style package in the F-Series lineup, Ranger was finally separated into its own line in the '70s. Edsel to F-Series to it's very own truck is a pretty hefty argument for social mobility, no?
- Anyone that grew up in the '80s or later came of age watching that beautiful blue F-150 fly through the air and crush cars with abandon. Then, in 2010, after over 30 years of F-150 heroics, Bigfoot switched to Chevy.
