2012 Ford H-D F-150
Ford has confirmed that the Harley-Davidson F-150 pick-up will remain in its range for 2012.
Changes for the new model year are restricted to the fitment of 22” aluminium wheels with painted accents, a White Platinum Tri-Coat colour option, revised body graphics and snakeskin leather for the interior.
Standard specification includes a 4.2” LCD ‘Productivity Screen’ (full marks to the marketing guys for coming up with that term) that sits between the speedometer and tachometer. Controlled via a five-way steering wheel-mounted button, it displays items like fuel consumption, off-road performance and towing information.
Also on the equipment list is a voice-activated satellite navigation system, remote starting, second row heated seats, a powered moonroof and SiriusXM Satellite Radio.
Being an F-150, features such as a live, leaf-sprung rear axle mean that technically things aren’t particularly advanced. Similarly, the engine is an iron-block, two valves per cylinder 6.2 litre petrol-powered V8 with a single overhead camshaft.
It does however manage to produce 411 bhp (306 kW / 416 PS) and a massive 588 Nm (434 lb/ft) of torque, although unsurprisingly the result is a prodigious thirst. With all-wheel drive, fuel economy is just 12 miles per US gallon (14.4 mpg imperial / 19.6 l/100km) on the City cycle, while the Highway rating is not much better at 16 mpg US (19.2 mpg imperial / 14.7 l/100km).
