However, enterprising people and businesses were modifying those early chassis for commercial use, and it didn't take long for Ford to figure out that there was a demand for this application of the Model T. Soon, Ford was making its own configurations for commercial use, first through third-party body companies and eventually by Ford itself with the Model TT. From these humble beginnings, Ford stumbled onto the basis for one of the most popular vehicles ever built: the Ford F-Series pickup truck.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In \u003ci\u003eFord Trucks: A Unique Look at the Technical History of America's Most Popular Truck\u003c\/i\u003e, authors Jimmy Dinsmore and James Halderman thoroughly dissect the entire history of Ford pickup trucks as seen from a technical viewpoint.
