THE PICK-UP
Willy Hierro Allen
From the horse-hauled carriage for farming logistics in the United States to the pickup, a different vehicle that was born in the first decade of the 20th century in order to carry merchandise. The T Ford was the first of this kind, handmade by farmers and traders, but the Dodge brothers were the first ones to manufacture them after World War 1 (1918). Then Chevrolet took the lead and, incomprehensibly, Ford didn’t make them until 1925. The pickup hasbeen the most sold automobile model in the United States over the years.
