Car Show Fever

From a four-wheeler’s perspective, Ford’s Mighty F-350 Tonka concept vehicle (RPM, April ’02) had to be one of the stars of the Detroit show. Rather than the tease we all were given last month, this time around the vehicle was completely revealed. It’s interesting for a number of reasons, not least because its styling points toward what we’ll be seeing on the next iterations of Ford’s F-Series trucks. A Ford spokesman told the assembled press that the Mighty F-350 Tonka features what they called “tough luxury,” right down to dash switches built to resemble those that control power tools. But it’s also interesting because of some of the technology it employs. Most importantly, it’s powered by the next-generation Navistar Power Stroke Super 600 diesel engine. View Related Article
