The 2021 Ford F-150 Raptor is the best version yet of Ford’s high performance pickup, but Fox News Autos Editor Gary Gastelu says it may soon be even better.<\/p>\n
The Ford F-Series marked 40 consecutive years as America’s bestselling vehicle last year and will almost certainly retain the title in 2022, just like a Ford did in 1922.<\/p>\n

\n The 1922 Ford Model T was the first to rack up over one million sales.
\n (Ken R Morris Jr\u00a0)<\/p>\n
That year the revolutionary Model T became the first vehicle to surpass one million sales in a calendar year, with over 1.3 million delivered globally.<\/p>\n
Like the F-Series, the Model T line comprised several variants, although they ranged from cars to trucks.<\/p>\n

\n The Ford Model TT is a truck version of the Model T.
\n (Ken R Morris Jr)<\/p>\n
Seven different versions of the Model T were sold that year, including a coupe, four-door and a pickup-like single cab.<\/p>\n
The entry-level Runabout had a starting price of $319, which would be $4,803 today.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\n The F-150 Lightning that goes on sale this year will be the first all-electric version of the pickup.
\n (Ford)<\/p>\n
However, Model T’s record was crushed the following year by \u2026 the Model T, when it became the first car to break the two million sales mark.<\/p>\n

Ford would go on to sell 16.5 million Model Ts by the time it was discontinued in 1927, which was a record at the time, but is a far cry from the F-Series’ current tally, which stands at over 40 million.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
