2003 Ford F-150 Harley Davidson Pick-Up she wanted an american pick up truck to carry her 2 harley davidson bikes to harley bike rally, expensive hobby!

picking it up next week, will take some pics and post here

she was originally interested in 2004 Dodge RAM 'Rumble-Bee' she changed her mind at last minutes and went for the F150 Harley Davidson Edition cos of 4 seats and the look of the bonnet is "over the top" for her liking

she said she'll let me drive when she get it next week, cant wait :D
 
to be honest with you, i'm not sure if 2 harleys will fit on the back but mum think so

it cames with this bar thingy like this (google image) -

Very flash looking, not my sort of thing though.

If I needed something to cart around big ass bikes it would have Ifor Williams or Indespension on the back :o

Well that was probably when it was new. The owner probably sold the harley seperately or still has it.

Looks awsome dude. Expensive hobby if thats your mums idea of a flat bed. :p

It's not designed for it aside from having the bars to go on the tailgate come with it...

It's just a pickup with some Harley related paint.

Didnt Top Gear utterly rip into this?

As an actual sensible car it's no doubt rubbish, they do sod all to the gallon, don't fit anywhere, and aren't all that fast, nor do they handle.

The point of it is what you see there.. it's huge, it's shiny, it carries stuff, and it's very american. That's its appeal!

I don't really go for the Harley ones but I do like big american pickups.

P.S Rumble Bees are awesome! I saw one of them a few months ago, the thing was monstrous!
 
They aint made for UK roads, seen loads in America are they are built for long wide freeways, the Americans dont have 18th century villages with roads the size of a mini.
 
Hi there

Stunning piece of machinery. 5.4l V8 supercharged, whats it pushing? Approx 340BHP?

What is crazy is the size of the things, they make Mitsubishi Warriors and other UK/Euro pickups look like toys in comparison. :)

My favourite is the F250/F350 as those have the big 7.0l diesel units pushing over 700lb-ft and close to 450-500BHP with a simple ECU flash. :D
