Yeah, those came out a year or two back. Nice trucks, and very, very cool looking. But with a base price of $155K (plus you can very easily as another $50k+ in options and $30K for a matching trailer) I think I'd rather have a long nose Pete with a custom paint job.
Nice truck, my uncle has the non-hd version and plans on getting a second one for his business. I to this day have not understood the appeal of buying a ford or anything else that has a motorcycle companies badging on it. I like HD's, triumphs, hondas and my suzuki but I don't want their badging on my chevy. Heck I don't even like the factory badging that comes on trucks or motorcycles.

Well with H-D it's a pride thing that some people get pretty wrapped up in,I won't go into the whole story which goes back decades,suffice to say it's pretty much the only brand you find tattooed on peoples bodies.
It's about the most recognizable icon brand in the world second maybe to Coke and without a doubt graces more products than any other.
There are those (like minded to you) that strip the brand name off their Harleys preferring just a custom paint job and no logo anywhere so to each their own.
I guess for me I'm pretty much indifferent about it but I like this truck,there would be no doubt you're an H-D fan if you were driving one lol.
That said I'd love to have one like your uncle's without the H-D package,they're just way cool trucks,kinda old school retro almost hodrod looking art deco styling that stands out.
Ford should make a small ranger sized pickup and style it based on a '35-'36,give it a standard V-6 or an optional Mustang GT drivetrain.
Then they could offer an H-D package on that with 1930's H-D art deco ques.
