ShinerBock,
Not dissing you!
My post was just to add some detail facts and info to your post. So many people and even owners of trucks with the last couple decades of diesel engines in them don't have a clue as to the real facts about the diesel engines or the trucks they are in as to who actually designed them, manufactures them, assembles them, and where.
What the name on the vehicle emblem is alone does not tell it's origination, corporate ownership or location or the actual history of its model signification or who owns and manufactures it and where. It's a marketing moniker identification. Silverado doesn't say General Motors as it's a vehicle model line unlike "Chevrolet" which is a division of GM. GMC which stands for "General Motors Corporation" however does say GM.
Ram doesn't say FCA or Chrysler Corp either. However, Dodge does say Chrysler Corp as Dodge is/was a seperate vehicle line brand division of Chrysler Corp/FCA like Chevrolet is a division of GM. Dodge was the name on the emblem identifier words/wording on/for the trucks for many decades and what identified them. Dakota small pickups of the past did not say Dodge or Chrysler or FCA as it was a model line moniker. Which however, is now "FCA" owned at present and will likely change again when?, given the history? History most often is a predictor of the future!
A Ford truck in modern history is simply an "F" series vehicle no matter the vehicle size capability and has been for eons and not likely to change anytime soon. Attemps to offer other truck significations were short lived mostly due to low sales volume in North America or not presently in production.
Sure, anyone can seek out a "maverick" example but they are so insignificant in reality. Perhaps this is beyond some readers comprehension?
