Artifact Overview

Ford Motor Company loaned 15 pickups to the New York-New Jersey Port Authority following the September 11, 2001, attack on the World Trade Center. The attack destroyed many of the Port Authority's vehicles. Ford's pickups, built at the company's plant in Edison, New Jersey, were pre-production prototypes of the Ranger FX4 -- a heavy-duty, four-wheel-drive truck with special off-road equipment.
