Ford Present The Harley Davidson F150 Truck

The Ford F150 first appeared on the scene back in 1975 and because the F100 was, still in production at this time it was often referred to as the "heavy half ton". Yet although this model has been around for over 30 years, it was not until 1999 that the Ford Harley Davidson F150 truck was created.

The Ford F150 first appeared on the scene back in 1975 and because the F100 was, still in production at this time it was often referred to as the “heavy half ton”.  Yet although this model has been around for over 30 years, it was not until 1999 that the Ford Harley Davidson F150 truck was created.

Since it being first introduced the Ford Motor Company have now brought out several different models of this great looking vehicle.  But everything that they have done on this model since it first appeared is that it resonates the heritage of the Harley Davidson Motorcycle Company.  Below we take a look at the two latest versions of this truck, which are certainly going to be winners with both Ford and Harley Davidson enthusiasts alike.

1.  Ford Harley Davidson F150 Supercab - This model was but into production in 2006 and is in the monotone black with lots of chrome accessories and trim.  Also each model comes with the very distinctive Harley Davidson logo.  But just as you would find on a custom motorcycle made by Harley Davidson externally each truck has a custom scalloped red stripe outlined in electric blue in order to provide a more authentic custom look to the vehicle.  Plus along with the custom paint job at intervals on the vehicles belt line you will find that the Harley Davidson script has been placed.

With all their F150 models that have been built in collaboration with Harley Davidson, Ford have included a chrome billet grille and headlamps and taillights which have been blacked out.  They also all come with 22 inch forged aluminum rimmed wheels which have been polished.  Which provides a look which may seem quite menacing to some.

2.  Ford Harley Davidson F150 Supercrew - Introduced to the motoring world in 2007 this vehicle not only comes with a monotone black exterior but also a dark amethyst one as well.  But just like the 2006 Supercab this one comes with the 22 inch polished aluminum wheels and billet grille in chrome.  Plus just like the Supercab the headlights and taillights have been blacked out once more and which are a standard feature to be found on these models of F150 trucks.

The major difference between the 2006 Supercab and the 2007 Supercrew is what is under the hood.  A person who purchases the 2007 model has the option of having a supercharger fitted to the Harley Davidson engine.  This is normally to be found on Ford’s Shelby GT500 and once fitted to this F150 will give the owner 450 break horsepower.

Along with a number of refinements to the exterior of the vehicle, Ford have made some changes to the interior of the F150 cab as well.  It provides the people encased within with the feeling that they are out on the open road riding along on a Harley Davidson.

The captains chairs within the Ford Harley Davidson F150 are completely unique as the leather used has had the Harley Davidson logo embedded into them.  Plus through the addition of lots of chrome accessories within the cab have further added to the feel of it being a completely customized vehicle just like the motorcycles it has been named after.
