17. Ford F-1 Marmon-Herrington Ranger
Ford offered their first 4×4 truck in 1959 and the first off-roader was the Bronco in 1966. However, even though those mainline Ford models were lagging behind the competition when it comes to all-wheel-drive, Blue Oval fans could get a closed off-road vehicle with a Ford badge on it with a factory warranty. They just sent their F-1 truck to Marmon-Herrington in Indianapolis and they would return it as a fully capable off-road model.

The Marmon-Herrington company did significant changes to the drivetrain, suspension, and gearbox of the stock F-1, turning it into an extremely capable machine. However, this was an expensive process. Also, in the early ’50s, not many people knew about the possibility of owning a fully enclosed, new, and all-terrain capable Ford model. That’s why they only built 54 of them.
