You may discuss our cover story of the day in this thread....
Test Drive:
2006 Ford F-150 Harley Davidson Edition

Uncomfortable seats

Yes, but "it's an impressive-looking boulevard cruiser" That makes it all worth while, doesn't it? You might even be able to impress the neighbour with his Hummer 1.

"Perhaps the seats are heavenly if you get into them after vibrating for a few hours on a Harley, but I found them very disappointing."  Grin she gets some good quips in there. I'm sure they will sell a ton (more) around here to stock option rich, middle age, red necks.

What are two things that are "cool" right now that everyone wants but won't be able to get rid of in 5 years, Alex?
