Ford Harley-Davidson 2010

Auto Car | Ford Harley-Davidson 2010 | Although hardly unexpected, there was little in the form of physical evidence proving the existence of a new, 6.2-liter V8-powered Harley-Davidson F-150 in the works for the latest model year, but that didn't stop Ford from making it official.
The latest collaboration between Ford Motor Company and Harley-Davidson Motorcycles marks the 15th such model, all of which have been based on Ford trucks ranging from the F-150 all the way up to the F-450.



Over the years Harley-Davidson edition Ford trucks have ranged from having standard V8 engines, to special supercharged engines, to standard turbocharged diesels, and now to a special high-performance V8 which is only found under the hood of one other F-150, the SVT Raptor.
Most capable Harley-Davidson F-150 ever
Ford says that the latest Harley-Davidson F-150 is the most powerful and most capable model in the history of the collaborations yet, packing 411 horsepower, 434 lb-ft of torque and up to 9,300 lbs of towing capacity.



In addition to upping the power quotient, the latest F-150 HD edition also gains some serious standard features, such as voice-activated navigation, a 4.2-inch productivity screen built into the gauge cluster, rear-view camera, ambient lighting, first and second-row heated seats, a power moonroof and remote start.
With the Harley-Davidson F-150 comes a substantial list of premium features, and of course a premium price point to go along with it. As a result, Ford made several changes to the standard F-150 inside and out in order to make it worthy of its unique badging and premium pricing.



The exterior of the new Ford Harley-Davidson F-150 is marked by a bold new front fascia with a six-bar billet-style satin chrome grille. The headlamp housing is tinted darker, with matching tinted rear tail lamps as well. Changes to the front fascia also included a unique blacked-out lower grille.
The side of the F-150 features monochrome painted door handles, mirror caps and fender flares – along with a unique, powered and fully integrated deployable running board. Along the top of the bed are the words Harley-Davidson finished in satin chrome.



Also standard are 22-inch Euroflange forged wheels with a polished center wheel cap and low-profile performance tires. The paint selection is limited to classic Harley-Davidson colors: Tuxedo Black and Ingot Silver, each with new graphics on the hood and body side of the truck. The graphics are executed in an engine-turned finish and feature dimensional satin chrome Harley-Davidson lettering. Ford says the graphics were intended to be reminiscent of the "speed scallops" used on hot rods.
Inside the HD F-150 you will find unique brightwork, a mix of a black piano finish and brushed aluminum, as well as unique Harley-Davidson badging.
