History of the Unibody: Then there are some designs that were so out there, so far ahead of their time, so far ahead of the technology needed to make them work properly that it’s hard to believe Ford’s engineers managed to get them off the ground. Such a design was the one-piece unibody truck, available on the fourth-generation F-100. Despite being a dead-end tributary off the central F-Series root, the unibody trucks have since shown to be profoundly influential. The Chevrolet Avalanche body-on-frame sport utility truck, introduced as a concept at the 2000 North American International Auto Show, owes no small part of its design to the pioneering Ford. Yet beyond sharing unitized construction, the unibody F-100 also went after the Avalanche’s target market decades before it became a driving force. Unfortunately for Ford, timing - in design, technology and marketing - proved to be everything.
