At Sterling Trucks, our family keeps expanding. From the Class 8 Set-Back vocational line with GVWRs up to 105,600 lbs. to the new Class 7 & 8 Set-Forward truck and the Class 3 – 5 Sterling 360 low cab-over-engine ... to the new Bullet. Sterling keeps building more of the work trucks that help keep America working.

The new Bullet is ready to work when you are. Twenty-four hours a day. Anyway you need to. You can depend on it. Available as a Regular Cab (2-doors) or Quad Cab (4-doors), with 4x2 or 4x4 drivelines, it brings an entirely new set of working class qualifications to the job site. New product features include:

• 50,000 psi front frame rails with industry standard 34" frame rail spacing
  
• Chassis components mounted below the top of frame
  
• Fuel-saving 6-speed automatic transmission with best-in-class ratio spread
  
• Standard PTO prep package
  
• EPA07 exhaust system
  
• 19.5" wheels w/10 lugs
  

Hire the Bullet. It loves getting its wheels dirty, volunteers for overtime, and never takes a vacation day.

The Bullet is powered by the Cummins 6.7 liter Turbo Diesel engine, producing 305 hp and 610 lbs.-ft of torque. The 6.7 is the next generation of Cummins-designed cooled EGR engines. It operates on Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel Fuel as well as B5 Biodiesel, and features:

• Best-in-class performance
  
• Variable Geometry Turbo charging for air handling
  
• Standard integrated exhaust brake — for improved vehicle control
  
• Low operating costs
• Life-to-overhaul interval of 350,000 miles — a 100,000 mile advantage over competitive engines.

Getting the job done is tough enough. Operating your truck doesn't have to be. Features inside the new Bullet include an adjustable steering wheel to tilt where you like it, gauges that are easy to see and read, driver and passenger air bags, air conditioning, and power for your laptop.

Optional features include cruise control with switches located conveniently on the steering wheel. Automatic transmission with shift lever, located on the steering column, provides more leg room on the floor. And an Infinity stereo is also available for your listening pleasure.

"Sterling dealers are work truck experts and are equipped to provide customers with all of the solutions they need to get the job done right," said Stevenson. "Plus, customers will get the kind of service they expect from a commercial vehicle dealer: service centers with longer hours, and technicians trained to get trucks back to work fast." Sterling Truck Corporation, based in Redford, Mich., produces and markets a full line of Class 3-8 work trucks for regional hauling and diverse vocational applications. Sterling is a subsidiary of Freightliner LLC. Freightliner LLC produces and markets Class 3-8 vehicles and is part of Daimler Chrysler's Truck Group, the world's leading commercial vehicle manufacturer. Several improvements in the Sterling 360's engine are being introduced as a result of the changes made to comply with EPA ‘07 emissions standards. The new diesel particulate filter has been tested and used in the Japanese market for several years, ensuring its reliability. Its compact design allows for fewer disturbances during body installation and also safeguards the Sterling 360's ground clearance. The engine changes also resulted in increased power, upgrading the Sterling 360's engine from 175 to 185 hp. Due to the improved cooling system and a change in frame height, the Sterling 360's chassis could be lowered two inches, making it easier for operators to load and unload the vehicle. The Sterling 360's list of options has added an 189-inch wheelbase on the Class 5 model, as well as a keyless entry system available on all Sterling 360 models.
