Talk about a Hog's breakfast! Behold the launch of the International LoneStar Harley-Davidson Special Edition tractor which made its debut at the Mid-America Trucking Show yesterday! Varoooommmm!!!! With its deep black paint and contrasting silver and orange striping, the attention-grabbing, chrome-laden big rig truck is 9and I quote the manufacturer's PR blurb here) "one-of-a-kind."
Designed in collaboration with the legendary motorcycle manufacturer, the International LoneStar Harley-Davidson Special Edition certainly leaves no one in doubt as to its DNA! "The Harley-Davidson Special Edition takes LoneStar to the next level," Dee Kapur, president, Navistar Truck Group tells Biglorryblog. "It's the perfect combination of LoneStar originality and Harley-Davidson authenticity."
The LoneStar Harley-Davidson Special Edition is authentic all the way down to its design elements--for eample its headlights are actual Harley motorcyle headlamps while its leather seats feature the same Harley-Davidson Bar and Shield attached to all Harley-Davidson motorsickles
Among the special LoneStar features are the following goodies:
· Unique metallic black paint with contrasting silver/orange striping in classic Harley-Davidson style · Distinctive grille, inspired from the 1939 International D-series with distinctive Harley-Davidson logo-type side graphics · Deep, clean, and classically simple front bumper with integrated fog and marker/turn lamps and optional bumper light bar · Authentic Harley-Davidson headlights, pulled directly from the famous Harley-Davidson Screamin' Eagle® Performance Division · Massive 7-inch chrome stacks with aggressive bologna cut tips for a custom look · Set-back fuel tanks for a sleeker, west coast appearance · Custom-forged and -machined 24.5-inch aluminum wheels with unique lug nut covers and Harley-Davidson Bar and Shield center caps and · Unique formed super-deep custom sunshade and a distinctive aluminum battery box sporting Harley-Davidson Bar and Shield logos
Inside, the LoneStar Harley-Davidson Special Edition lets drivers feel like they own the road, with a comfortable and uniquely styled work environment that easily converts to an innovative living space. The LoneStar interior is known for being more than a cab -- it's a suite. And, now it adds the unique Harley-Davidson look and feel. It features rich leather upholstery, turned aluminium gauge faces, dark rosewood cabinets and a dark walnut floor. Yet, it still has all the comforts of home with a sleeper that works like an office and a pull-down mattress that easily converts the sofa into a 42"-wide bunk. Built for a select few, it even includes a limited production number plate on the shifter. You can even get your own name engraved on the top of the gear knob too!
Meanwhile, the International LoneStar Harley-Davidson Special Edition is available in a sleeper configuration only. It will be available for order next month and will enter production in June. Only 250 units will be produced in 2009. And to learn more, go to www.internationaltrucks.com/lonestarhd.
