I turned the key on the first Harley-Davidson Special Edition Lone star that went down the line at the Navistar International Plant, in Chatham Ontario Canada.
In my opinion, even if you have never owned a Harley-Davidson Motor Cycle you will want to own this Beautiful Truck! That is if trucking is your business.
On another note, I guess I am a little prejudiced as I have a Road King waiting for me when I get home from the plant.
Marketing is Marketing folks take it for what it is and RIDE ON!

I have been in the Tranportation Industry for a about 9 years and riding a motorcycle for about 2 years.
In my opinion Truckers and Bikers are alike. We like going our Own way. What does it matter to Us if someone doesn’t like the color, size, sound, or shape of the equipment that We drive or ride. We own what we can afford then we buy what We want.
Why else would someone buy a Hayabusa, a fast enough bike in any shape, and add a turbo or Big bore kit to it. Why did BMW start selling 3 different types of HP bikes. Or Buell build a liquid cooled engine, or all the new 3 wheeled vehicles coming out.
It’s called ‘Choice’.
By the way I grossed @ $182,000 with my truck and I cleared @ $65,000 after expensives, fuel was very High last year, and I run a regional route. I got to ride my UM 650R quite a bit. I want to buy a Can Am Spyder and a Buell 1125CR plus a fully Loaded, $167,500, LoneStar.
New semis are starting at @ $120,000 thanks the EPA’s new rules. Bikers’ are not the only one’s bothered Them.

Gary: Nah, you’re right. I mean really, who cares? It’s all marketing. A harley clock or bottle opener has nothing to do with the actual bikes either. I just think it’s strange when one vehicle’s brands are tacked on to another’s.
