Chicago, Ill., Feb. 7—Executives with Harley-Davidson Motor Company (NYSE: HOG) and Tuscany Motor Co., a Fox Factory Holding Corp. (NASDAQ: FOXF) (“FOX”) subsidiary, today introduced the 2019 Harley-Davidson F-150 pickup truck at the Chicago Auto Show. A concept of the Harley-Davidson branded truck was displayed at the Harley-Davidson 115-year Anniversary celebration in Milwaukee. Strong reaction to the truck led to the collaboration for an all-new Harley-Davidson F-150. The public can see this exciting new vehicle, which is displayed in Ford Motor Company’s exhibit, from February 9-18.
“Motorcycle enthusiasts can once again enjoy dramatic Harley-Davidson design cues in the number one selling vehicle in America, the Ford F-150,” said Brad Richards, Vice President of Styling & Design for Harley-Davidson Motor Company. The strong reaction by the public to the concept truck at our anniversary event encouraged us to move the 2019 Harley-Davidson edition Ford F-150 into production. We look forward to fulfilling the dreams of fans who overwhelmingly asked for this special truck.”
Approximately 70,000 trucks were sold under the highly successful program from 2000 to 2012.
