Yeah. I don’t want to stereotype, but some German guy recruited from PUMA in Germany, just does not sound like a good fit for a company like HD.

Had he ever rolled into a Harley dealership, you know, the ones with the BIG ‘MURICAN FLAG that can be seen from the space station?

Alan Mulally wasn’t a car guy, but he turned Ford around. Tim Cook isn’t a computer guy, but he helped Apple print money after Steve Jobs died.

Perhaps he can make sure that HD clothing becomes as appealing to younger buyers as Puma? Get their money on apparel if they can't afford a hog! 

It’s all about your 2.

Depends on where you live and what your life style is. I wanted a Jeep Wrangler, but just got a Ranger. Daily is still a fiat spider abarth when the weather isn’t bad.

1.) I diy. While a new 19 alltrack would have seated 4 should I start a family in the next several years (and come in a stick) it can’t tow in the us.…

There’s a lot of value in a pickup. It’s not just about buying “tough” vehicles. They have become an automotive swiss army knife.

I wonder how the resale values will be affected when there are thousands of used trucks piling up at every dealership.

Trucks have retained their resale value historically regardless of fuel prices, even during the great recession of circa 2008 with also included high gas prices.

For anyone that hasn’t been there, there are three locations. The location with the planes is outside the city.

20 years ago the HD brand was already a Boomer, Silent, and Greatest nostalgia brand. Just like Coke, Marilyn Monroe, the Tasmanian Devil, and Elvis. None of them would ride this.

Erik,

Many cities require bikes to ride in the road and reserve sidewalks for pedestrians. Bikers in the road are usually road bikes going 20+mph, where it is significantly less safe to try and dodge pedestrians and strollers on the sidewalk. Interestingly enough, biking in the city is rarely a concern - it’s usually the…

Sigh. Another H-D thread filled with the same commenters hating on H-D.

“I really cannot understand why these idiots can’t understand the basic math.”

Hopefully they ended their redneck road rally with a good ol’ fashioned make out session. Full tongue, so those COVID microbes have every opportunity to do their thing.

I don’t have a problem with people not sheltering, the problem is when they get sick they put others at risk.  Like the guy who tries to climb Half Dome in winter then gets stuck and the forest service has to come rescue them.  You now have put a bunch of people at risk, not just yourself.  If you catch this while not…

Fucking libertarians. Sometimes we have to sacrifice personal liberty so people DON’T DIE.

And then... you have CV.

I used to regularly pass by the the cottage where James Watt worked to develop the steam engine when I would run or walk in Kinneil Wood.
