If anyone finds one of these, PLEASE take some pics of it and post them for me.



I really have to hand it to the H-D design team for this year, they did one heck of a job. I don't know how many of you have seen one of these in person yet but, oh my goodness, you are in for a treat. They did away with all the tacky stuff and gone more toward the *custom* look, which is what I like. It comes stock with 20" wheels, blacked out front end, chrome tow hooks, one of a kind interior, you name it, it's got it.



I was at a local BMW dealership the other day helping my mother shop for her new car, (which I pick up Tues. next week by the way) and I saw this monster of a truck just sitting there all pretty. At first, I thought it was a customized Lariat but then I got closer and recognized the big Harley badge on the sides. As if the outside wasn't enough of a treat, I peeked in the window and the dash looked like it was trimmed in carbon fiber but after looking at it even closer I realized I wasn't looking at cf, but thousands of tiny H-D shields made to look like cf. The interior is all black premium grade leather, and has satin nickel appointments.



Here's a link to Ford's website but it really does a poor job of showing off the truck because it looks 100% better in person.

After following the link, click on Models and then again on Harley-Davidson to see it: http://www.fordvehicles.com/trucks/superduty/



As some of you know, I used to have a 2003 F250 and had nothing but trouble with the new 6.0 liter PSD. I made the mistake of being the very first person to order one in my area, and ended up with ALL the defects. After 8 months of owning it, Ford gave me a full refund for the truck and all the accessories I added to it (yes, Ford customer service is :up), and that's how I ended up with my 2004 Expedition. Ever since they bought my truck back, I knew I would get another one. It was just a matter of time before they came out with something that caught my eye, and two years worth of production later, they have finally worked 99% of the bugs out of the new engine design.



Well, all I have to do now is sell my Expedition and I'll be posting some awesome pics of a freshly detailed H-D F250 4x4!!:D



Again, if anyone details one or knows someone with one, please take some detailed pics and either post them here or email me with them. Other than that one truck I saw for a very brief moment, I can't find a single other one to look at.

Yep, there she is. That one is in true blue with the optional *wet on wet* flames. I don't think I'm too crazy about those. I think I am going to go with all black, no flames which comes with a small 1/2" orange pinstripe which can be removed to make the whole truck, straight black.



Thanks for finding that ZaneO, now I have something to drool over!

Yep, remove the tacky flames and the roof clearance lights and that will be what I order. :spot
 
The 2006 F-150 is getting the Harley treatment too. Check out www.caranddriver.com and go to the 2005 Detroit Auto show preview. Its bad a$$! It comes with custom 22's and a custom bumper and lower body work. No supercharger yet.

For some reason, I can't find the Lightning. You sure you didn't mistake it for the 06' Explorer Sport-Trac? That's the only Ford truck I see.
 
Here's a few pics of my old truck, just so you can see how much more *custom* the H-D looks vs. the regular Lariat 4x4.

I particularly like what they did with the front grille area.
