For the first time since 1979, the 1997 Ford F150 was restyled in a big way. The box style, though iconic, had seen its day. The time had arrived for a new generation of America’s best-selling truck. Aside from badging, the 1997 Ford F150 was a totally different truck – one far different from what America was used to. With a modern touch, the body lines were reshaped for sleekness. The new F150 was also equipped with a more powerful and reliable powertrain, and though it broke from its retro roots, it was an instant icon. This was the tenth generation of the F150, which lasted through 2003, and it showed no slowing of momentum in the truck’s long history as America’s preferred truck.
