Generations by year
A model year alone often does not tell you which truck you have: the same name covers different generations, and markets switched over at different times. These pages give each generation's years by market, its codes, its facelifts and how to tell it apart, with the sources for every date.
Or answer three questions in the which generation do I have finder.
