Did Ford Mustang Make a Pickup Truck?

The Ford Mustang is one of the most iconic cars in American automotive history. It has been around since 1964 and has had a strong following throughout the years.

The Mustang is known for its powerful engine and sporty looks, and it has become a symbol of American culture. But many people have wondered if Ford would ever make a pickup truck version of the Mustang.

Ford has flirted with the idea of making a pickup truck version of the Mustang several times over the years. In 1965, Ford released the Ranchero, which was essentially a two-door station wagon with a pickup bed.

While this was not technically a Mustang, it did share many design elements with the classic pony car. In 1979, Ford even released an actual pickup truck version of the Mustang, called the Mustang II Mach 1.

However, these models were not successful and were quickly discontinued due to poor sales. Despite this, rumors about a possible return of a pickup truck version of the Mustang have persisted over the years. In 2019, Ford released an all-new compact crossover SUV called the Ford Bronco Sport that shares some design elements with its larger sibling, including styling cues from the classic Mustang.

While this isn’t exactly what people had in mind when they asked if Ford would ever make a pickup truck version of the Mustang, it does show that Ford is willing to experiment with different designs based on its iconic pony car. Despite this recent release, there is no indication that Ford will be making any official plans to produce an actual pickup truck version of its beloved muscle car anytime soon.

Conclusion:

Did Ford eventually make a pickup truck? The answer is no – at least not yet.

While there have been rumors and speculation about such an endeavor in recent years, nothing concrete has come to fruition so far. Ultimately only time will tell if we will ever see an official production model of an iconic Ford Mustang pickup truck.
