2010 Ford F-150 Harley Davidson Edition Unveiled

2009 brought us a new Ford F-150, and every time there is a new F-150, we get a new Harley Davidson edition one year later. True to form, Ford has released images and details of the next Hog-lover's truck, due in the 2010 model year.

Edmunds Inside Line reports, "Some of the more intriguing elements can be found in the cabin, where Ford said it took pains to pattern the seats after a Harley biker jacket." Deep red and black seats are wrapped in the same leather used for the jackets, "with engraved Harley-Davidson button snaps and zippered map pockets," using the same zippers as the official apparel. Seat bolsters are even built of the same ribbed leather used on the shoulders and elbows of Harley jackets. The center console bin is capped off with a huge Harley logo carrying the truck's serial number and VIN.

Mechanically, Jalopnik reports, " It gets the same 320 HP 5.4-liter you'll find in the engine bay of the regular 2009 Ford F-150 mated to a six speed automatic powering the rear wheels or an optional Harley-unique driveline, which can be operated in 4x2 mode, AWD or 4x4 high. The suspension, on the other hand, is completely retuned for a sportier ride with more aggressive springs and shocks as well as a thicker anti-roll bar. The truck takes advantage of the sportier tune with some custom 22 inch wheels shod in 275 series, low profile, high performance Pirelli Scorpion Zeros."
