What makes a truck an "apache"

[spacedebris]

Ok, This may be a dumb question but I cant seem to find an answer.

I know the meanings of the C and K classifications but I've seen a number of trucks that have the name "Apache". Sometimes I see "Apache 10" and sometimes I see just "Apache". What makes a truck an Apache and does the Apache name run multiple levels of trucks? I've seen the name on everthing from 1/2 ton pickups to the large heavy duty 2 ton and larger trucks.


The reason I'm asking is when I bought my panel it was advertised as an "apache", yet I've seen the 1 ton panels both with and without the name apache associated. Thanks for any info that you can provide.
