...whats the specs?

proof of bandwagon buyers here. This is why ford is still in business, can slap on a Harley-Davidson sticker on a F-250 and charge 9k more. I think it's sad

It’s just like how most people drool over a Roush or Saleen on this forum, at least this isn't something you see every day. Plus it is a sporty looking vehicle you could drive while out of your Mustang, I’d sure as hell rock one as a DD.

By the way the HD trucks used to be sweet before they took the blower off.

Obviously you don't understand the performance aspect of it. Way better suspension, handling, and looks. Not to mention the 04 saleen came with 290HP and 365HP for supercharged editions. I don't know the Explorer Saleen specs, but I'm sure it was bad ass for its time.

strange... Now if they had an excursion from the factory with a cool lowering kit and big rims, only in black... I could go for one of those...

 

[BurningRubber]

Yeah there is a guy in my area with the XP8 Explorer. They are bad ass. They still arent that fast unless you slap the blower on them, then they are quick... but they are still heavy as hell.

They do look alot better and im sure they handle pretty well for an SUV also. Id love to have one.

Saleen had an optional Vortech supercharger for the XP8 Explorer as well.

As for the Harley Davidson F150's, Ford is offering a supercharger on those again. 450hp I believe.

 

[BLK_ROUSH]

I've always liked them.
Thought they were cool too ... and would make for a great DD or car show support vehicle.

Yes but the price is outrageous for a 2007 HD with a blower, like high $40k low $50k.

Plus as big as the truck is even with a blower it will still be a dog.

That's a bargin. My friend paid 41K for his Silverado. My cousin paid like 46K for his F-350.
