2007 Harley Question

I was reading about the new 2007 Harley F150 on Edmunds. They say it has an availible 4x4 package. Then I went to the Ford website and it says its an All-Wheel Drive package. Which one is which?

It is AWD, non-selectable 4WD, sharing quite a bit in common with the system in the Navigator.

Plus, the front seats in all F-150s have additional lateral bolstering this year. On the options list you'll find Sirius satellite radio, a navigation system and the FX2 Sport Package, which provides monochromatic paint, special 18-inch alloy wheels and a black/red interior. Lariat buyers can opt for power-folding mirrors with an auto-dimming feature on the driver side. The Harley-Davidson Package is now available on both two- and four-wheel-drive F-150 SuperCrews, but can no longer be added to SuperCabs. On the engine side, the 4.6-liter V8 picks up 17 additional horsepower for 248 total, while the 5.4-liter V8 is now E85-capable. Ford has extended powertrain warranty coverage to five years/60,000 miles.

Remember that the website you're looking at is a general 2007 review of the F-150, not just the Harley addition.

As far as I know, the system is the same AWD system used on the Navigators.

When you look at the Ford website, the options are 2WD and 4WD. However, that being said, it also shows a picture of the stock F-150, not of the Harley, so it may just be an error on their part.

it is a full time all wheel drive system. it also has a selector switch to go from awd to 4wd (awd sends most of the power to the rear wheel, sending more power to the front as the system detects slippage, 4wd will lock the differential sending power to all 4 wheels equally). awd is for dry weather, rain, light snow. you basically leave it on and forget about it. the 4wd is only used when road conditions will allow some tire slippage (otherwise you will experience binding and cause drivetrain damage). snow, mud,sand,etc. you don't want to drive on dry pavement in 4wd for any extended time. if you have a truck that only has part time 4wd, then you have to drive most of the time in 2wd, so if you're driving with an empty pickup bed, and there is a light rain, and you accelerate your back tires will spin. with awd, without having to push a button or move a lever, the system automatically detects which tires are slipping, and adjusts power so you don't experience all the tire spinning.
