Does Ford Make a Small Pickup Truck?

Ford is one of the most iconic American carmakers and it has been producing vehicles for more than a century. The company has a wide range of vehicles, from sedans to SUVs, and pickups. So, does Ford make a small pickup truck?

The answer is yes. Ford has produced a small pickup truck since the 1950s.

The Ford F-100 was the first small pickup truck released by the company, and it was followed by the F-150 in 1975. The F-100 was a compact pickup that featured a 4.9-liter V8 engine and had a payload capacity of 1,000 pounds. It was popular among farmers and ranchers who needed an economical way to transport their goods or livestock.

Since then, Ford has continued to produce small pickup trucks including the Ranger, which was introduced in 1983 and is still in production today. The Ranger is available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations with either gasoline or diesel engines ranging from 2.3-liters to 3.2-liters in displacement. It also features modern amenities such as power windows, locks, and cruise control; as well as an optional infotainment system with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto compatibility.

The Ranger is not the only small pickup truck offered by Ford. The company also produces the Transit Connect Van which can be outfitted with an available cargo box that turns it into a compact pickup with up to 1,270 pounds of payload capacity. It’s powered by either a 2.0-liter four-cylinder or 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. It offers modern amenities such as heated seats, power windows/locks/mirrors, adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist system, blind spot monitoring system and much more!

Overall, Ford offers several different types of small pickups depending on your needs and budget – from traditional workhorse models like the F-100 to more modern offerings like the Transit Connect Van that can double as both a passenger vehicle and light duty hauler when needed.

To conclude, yes – Ford does make small pickups for those who need an economical way to transport goods or livestock without sacrificing modern amenities such as power windows/locks/mirrors or advanced driver assistance systems.
