The Ford Harley-Davidson F-150 gets supercharged makeover.
It seemed a fitting destination to test Ford's new supercharged Harley-Davidson F-150 SuperCrew.
The four-door black pickup became Ford's latest attempt to combine street-riding charms and supercharged power since the automaker discontinued the SVT Lightning in 2004.
The 2007 supercharged model is a late addition to Ford's 2007 pickup lineup, and the 2008 models will hit dealerships in August.
Unlike most work trucks, this kind of pickup begets bragging rights, and the Harley Davidson F-150's bravado is as subtle as straight pipes.
The truck's speed starts with the $6,500 optional twin-screw Saleen supercharger Ford bolted to the 5.4-liter V-8.
Piano-black trim tastefully outlines the dashboard's edges and encases the stereo and cabin controls.
The fastest way to Hell may still be a two-wheeled Harley, but in Ford's latest version at least I won't end up there with bugs in my teeth.
