F-Series: 48 Years as America's Best Selling Trucks
The Ford F-Series continues its reign as America’s best-selling truck, achieving this remarkable feat for an astonishing 48 consecutive years. Since 1977, over 33 million F-Series trucks have been sold across America*. This enduring success story also solidifies its position as the top-selling vehicle overall for 43 years, a testament to its unwavering popularity among American drivers.

The enduring legacy of the F-Series is not just a result of our relentless pursuit of improvement but also a reflection of the trust between Ford, our dealers and customers. We are deeply grateful for the opportunity to serve our customers and are committed to continuing to earn their business every single day.

Several key factors contribute to the F-Series’ enduring popularity. Ford provides an extensive lineup catering to diverse needs, ranging from the robust F-250 Super Duty to the fuel-efficient F-150 EcoBoost. A legacy of innovation, marked by groundbreaking features like the powerful Power Stroke diesel engine and the versatile Pro Power Onboard generator, has consistently pushed the boundaries of truck capability. Furthermore, the F-Series has earned a stellar reputation for its reliability and durability, providing customers with unwavering confidence in their purchase.

From the iconic F-150, celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2025, to the capable F-600, the F-Series’ success hinges on Ford’s commitment to offering a diverse range of powertrains. No other manufacturer can match Ford’s extensive selection, which encompasses powerful gas and diesel engines, the innovative PowerBoost Hybrid, and the groundbreaking all-electric F-150 Lightning. This unwavering commitment to innovation ensures that there’s an F-Series truck perfectly suited for every customer’s individual needs and preferences.
