In 1982, Ford first placed its Blue Oval in the middle of an F-Series grille. It hasn't left since then, and the F-150 hasn't stopped being the archetype for the American truck since then. With the F-100 ceasing production after 1983, the F-150 has since stood alone as the light-duty truck option from Ford.

Originally designed to be a clean triggerless and bootless shifter, the QuickSilver shifter smoothly ratchets through the forward gears all the way through to the neutral position with a sharp, uncluttered look that is reminiscent of many manual transmissions. Simply lift the stick while in drive to access reverse and park. Lift again to move from park to the forward gears – it is that simple! Shifting is smooth, easy, and safe with the QuickSilver shifter.
