Description
In 1925, Ford was the first of the Big Three to enter the pickup market, but it was Chevrolet that was on top as Detroit's top truck-seller by World War II. Resuming civilian truck production in August 1945, Chevy got back to business in May 1947 with the new ‘Advance Design’ pickups. Wider, longer, and lower than the prewar leftovers marketed in 1946, the Advance Design models looked thoroughly modern and featured a unique ‘alligator’ hood hinged at the rear. There were few changes as the Advance Design trucks rolled into the 1950s, but Chevy continued to outsell all their rivals—even with Ford's new F-series models entering the market after 1948.
