A12 - The Oakville Beaver Weekend, Sunday December 24, 2006 www.oakvillebeaver.com The Ford Harley-Davidson fills a unique niche Continued from A05 On the inside, well, we can poke fun at Harley's obsession with black, but the Piano Black glossy surfaces mixed with matte and aniline leather textures takes the F-Series award-winning interior to new heights of dark elegance set off by chrome-ringed brilliance. But, sorry, no snap buttons, fringes or chains. The retro-styled seats are comfortable and tattooed with logos. On the centre stack, a unique nickel-plated badge showing the V.I.N. and production number and accents the limited edition flavour of the truck.

Seems like every time I took a left turn, my fingers would roll off the stalk and it would start looking like rain. Under the hood in my tester is Ford's biggest F-150 engine, the 300 hp 5.4L Triton V8. You can't really make a V8 sound like a V-Twin but you can boast that you can. And the specially-tuned exhaust does burble with a nice note that brays into a lovely baritone moan when you push down the go-pedal. The engine is tied into a fourspeed overdrive automatic 4AWD system. The all-wheel drive system adds a little all-weather security but I would expect this street-rod to venture off-road as rarely as an actual Harley-Davidson. Not that this isn't a real truck. Ford HarleyDavidsons have all the strengths and capabilities of any F-150 although I imagine they will spend more time being buffed than hauling horse manure. And all that power put to the asphalt does come with a penalty. If most of your driving is highway hauling, you might squeak by with an acceptable 13L/100km at 100kmh. Driving at a slightly illegal but universallyaccepted 120 kmh will cost you a couple of bucks more per 100 kilometres. But in the city, the average can creep up to almost 25L/100 km. Which, I guess, is okay as long as your conscience and credit card limit can live with that. But with an as-tested price of more than $50K and more than twice the price of a Ford's starting pickup, this top-of-the-line model is not exactly aimed at the penny-pinching entry-level masses. As is the case with Harley motorcycles, plenty of customers seem willing to pay a premium for brand-name cachet and culture. For 2007, Ford is making a few minor changes to maintain interest. The 2007 Ford Harley-Davidson F-150 comes in Super Crew configuration this year and the "HarleyDavidson" script is featured along the bed side in three dimensional chrome letters for a change. And, surprise, surprise, a new model also features a unique colour option, Dark Amethyst, with a complimentary stripe colour. And, instead of leather embossing, a die-cast Harley-Davidson Bar & Shield logo is embedded in the leather of the seats. The Ford Harley-Davidson fills a unique niche, connecting with two cultural icons boasting pure leatherbound, North American machismo and style. As my buddy Lorne surmised, `it will make Harley lovers feel like they're in Hawg heaven.' Man, I wish I'd thought of that line. $ BACK or $0 down, no payments till spring $110.00 bi weekly $ BACK 2004 DODGE GR.
