How did a van with less horsepower than a modern lawnmower manage to revolutionize American commercial transportation and crush every competitor in its path?
In this video, we explore the incredible story of the 1965 Ford Econoline, a humble 80-horsepower van that defied all expectations by hauling 1,500 pounds of cargo while achieving 18 miles per gallon. Through innovative cab-forward design, bulletproof reliability, and brilliant simplicity, this unassuming workhorse didn't just compete with giants like Volkswagen and Chevrolet – it completely dominated them, outselling the VW Bus by over 4 to 1 and forever changing how businesses operate across America.
