Regular Cab 4x2 8-foot Styleside box, 133-inch wheelbase · 5.8-liter V8

1975 Ford F-150 Ranger XLT Regular Cab 4x2 8-foot Styleside box — 5.8-liter V8

Ford's July 1974 brochure introduces the 1975 F-150 in this Regular Cab 4x2 8-foot Styleside box; its styling section identifies Ranger XLT as a trim level, while its engine and equipment tables document the 300-cu.-in. six, 360-, four-barrel 390-, and 460-cu.-in. V8s plus manual and Cruise-O-Matic categories. The same factory specification table has no F-150 4x4 column, so this debut-year page does not backdate four-wheel drive or promote the Custom Decor Group into a separate model.
