Who invented the first ford pickup truck?

While Ford didn't explicitly *name* a specific inventor for the first Ford pickup truck, it's generally understood that the design and creation evolved organically within Ford's early production process. There wasn't a single individual who "invented" it in the way that, say, Thomas Edison invented the lightbulb. Rather, the early Ford pickup trucks were essentially Model Ts with a modified chassis and cargo bed, reflecting a practical adaptation of existing technology to meet customer needs.
