Ford F-Series seventh generation
 The seventh generation Ford F-Series was a line of pickup trucks and medium-duty commercial trucks produced from 1979 to 1986. For the first time since 1965 the pickup trucks were based upon a completely new chassis and body. Distinguished by its squarer look sharper lines and flatter panels the trucks were designed with improved fuel efficiency in mind; to this end Ford added its new AOD automatic overdrive (four-speed) transmission as an option on light-duty models.
