2008 Ford F-250: 2008 F-250 Harley-Davidson Edition
08/11/08
The Harley Ed super duty is what I believe the best of the best of the super duties!! Awesome interior and exterior upgrades that leave the King Ranch behind. Sorry cowboys! You will find a Harley logo or wings all over this truck inside and out! However if your wondering why I gave this a 3 in performance it's the fuel economy. Power from the all new bi-turbo 6.4 diesel engine is awesome but with the new DPF (diesel particulate filter) this thing sucks in the fuel economy area. What's that mean? 11 in town maybe 15 highway. Compared to the old 6.0 without the DPF at 15 in town and 19 highway, that's a huge difference in economy with prices as high as they are now! Personally I think the big 3 (Ford Chevy and Dodge) could of came up with something way better than this. Oh, and don't think you'll just take off the DPF unless you don't want your warranty, cause if you have to take it in, their computer will pull a regeneration/mileage ratio and if it don't line up bye-bye warranty! If the regen is to high, you're runnin a programmer or tuner, or if the regen is low or none you have manipulated the system by removing the DPF system. And if that don't depress you, Don't get caught with your DPF removed unless you want some serious fines from the EPA! HOWEVER with the new body style, new style tailgate, upgraded longer rear leaf springs for a smoother ride, quieter interior and added subwoofer, the awesome navigation with touch screen entertainment center, dual climate control, and the ever needed backup cam start to make up for the economy losses. I hope in the future the big 3 can eliminate the DPF cause Ford is really startin to look good inside and out, however if fuel economy is a big deal to you buy a 2007 or earlier. I traded in my 2003 super duty which I had no problems with for this 08 Harley. I do love this truck and I'm not trying to discourage anyone from getting their dream truck, however I might have went with the 07 Harley had I really known about the bad fuel economy, so I'm just letting you know what I wish someone would of told me. Good luck!!
