Harley-Davidson Ford F-250 Super Duty 2023.

For those who like something heavier: a new Harley-Davidson pickup based on the Ford F-250 Super Duty.

The American company FOX Factory Performance Vehicle Development (PVD) and its subsidiary tuning studio Tuscany Motor from Elkhart (Indiana) presented a new official Harley-Davidson truck based on the 2023 Ford F-250 Super Duty.

Traditionally, lavish Harley-Davidson-style decor is combined with a modified suspension.

Tuscany Motor has been tuning since 1998 and is the official manufacturer of trucks with Harley-Davidson attributes.

For two decades, the legendary motorcycle company chose the Ford F-150 as its official pickup truck, but in 2020, Harley-Davidson customers had an alternative in the form of a specially modified GMC Sierra, and now the all-wheel drive heavy-duty Ford F-250 Super Duty pickup has been added to the range.

The recipe for improvements remains the same: the signature Harley-Davidson orange decor plus a new suspension.

Compared to a standard pickup truck, the ground clearance of the Harley-Davidson Ford F-250 Super Duty has been increased by 127 mm, new levers from BDS Suspension, energy-intensive Fox shock absorbers tuned in a special way specifically for this model, and a Fox steering damper have been installed.

Both bridges are dependent and continuous. Exclusive 22-inch wheels are shod with toothy 37-inch BFGoodrich tires, perfect for off-road driving.

The power unit is standard — a 6.7-liter Ford V8 Power Stroke turbodiesel (507 hp, 1627 Nm) combined with a 10-speed hydromechanical automatic transmission.

For the new chassis, Tuscany Motor is recalibrating the speedometer and electronic driver assistants, such as a blind spot monitoring system and all-round cameras.

External features of the new Harley-Davidson pickup are a hood with a front end ventilation slot, a modified front bumper with orange tow loops and an LED garland, and wheel arch extensions.

Then there are side trims, retractable illuminated running boards, orange inserts in the side air ducts, a tailgate trim with a large Harley-Davidson inscription, a body cover with a large Harley-Davidson logo, a dual exhaust pipe with orange fins and other little things.

Inside, the buyer will find a ton of orange inserts and Harley-Davidson logos, re-upholstered leather seats with orange stitching, a gloss black center console, new pedals and floor mats, Harley-Davidson lettering on the door sills and a plaque with the vehicle’s serial number.

The minimum price for the Harley-Davidson Ford F-250 Super Duty is $117,280, which is about 20,000 more expensive than the stock pickup in the top-end Limited trim.
