The
FLD conventional
Today’s fleet, based
in less challenges, from delivering goods, not just in time, while
optimizing fuel economy keep drivers happy -- and safe. All of which
leads more fleets to the FLD, the most popular truck in
North America.
The consensus: "It’s superbly
designed, with plenty of creature comforts."
The FLD exemplifies
Freightliner's unmatched ability to combine breakthrough mechanical
efficiencies with uncompromised comfort and driver control. From easy
entry exit designed to comfortable positioning of its suspended breaking
clutch petals, every detail is a masterpiece of ergonomics. Standard
features like advanced front and rear suspension, shock absorbing cab
mount, air ride driver's seat and one of the widest cabs on the road
help the FLD achieve the smoothest, quietest ride in its class.
More of a suite than
a sleeper, the Freightliner 70 inch Raised Roof Sleeper cab features
standup headroom from front to back, the full 22 inch of space between
the seats and 62 inch of flat, brought for between the firewall in the
lower bunk. An incredible array of cabinets closets, under bunk storage
compartments, pockets, your pouches and molded recesses provide
unheard-of storage capacity while maintaining the field of lofty,
luxurious spacious throughout.
Comfort is enhanced
by convenience, perfected in close cooperation with drivers.

automotive style, ease; controls can be reached intuitively, without
taking eyes from the road, to maximize safety.
As you see, the
ultimate in comfort, convenience and control is more than matched by
engineering logic, high-tech innovations and dedication to sheer beauty,
all geared to maximize efficiency and productivity.
My customers agree: "We have to compete with
big fleets that maybe have new trucks. Well, once our guys get into our
SelecTrucks, they're disappointed in anything else."
If you be the source
of driver pride, the Freightliner FLD conventional represents the ideal
balance of ergonomics and fuel economy, weight savings, visibility and
driver comfort.
The cornerstone of
the rigid frame designed with Web mount a cross members custom punched
and custom located frame components. The advance cab mounting isolates
the cab and other key components -- including the driver -- from the
road jocks, noise and vibration. The payoff? It's a piece of
machinery, you can make money with.
The
Century Class
"Century class
pushes the competitive edge... What is this good for the driver -- it's
this good for the fleet. Productivity is what Century class is all
about."
From the moment it
took to the highway, Freightliner Century class defined a new error of
trucking as the first, all new class a truck in a generation.
Incorporating new ideas and technology, combined with component,
innovations and exacting computer -- aided design, Century class trucks
created a new dimension of operational efficiency, reliability and
driver appeal.
At first glance, the
professional driver knows the Century class is a driver’s and trucking
truck. What you climb into the cab, you'll recognize the Century class
tips beyond the boundaries of what was once considered the standard of
highway trucking. The high ample dimensions and richly appointed
interiors with modular cabinetry and shelving, along with the meticulous
ergonomics of the driving environment, significantly increased, the
driver's comfort and convenience; as well as raise morale in giving
every operator the incentive to drive wisely and well. With its
no-nonsense organization, industry-leading safety innovations and
extensive lineup of premium comforts, Century class is built to keep the
driver feeling, seeing and reacting their best.
The product of the
Freightliner's legendary engineering and manufacturing practices,
Century class boost HSC structure and unprecedented durability, strength
and easy maintenance. Technical advances like Freightliner's unique
driver messaging Center, which displays diagnostic, fuel and trip data,
coupled with an onboard computer power in and integrated
circuitry--greatly enhances operational efficiency and ease of driving.
In addition, standard chassis rear suspension, innovative cab and engine
mounts and electronic, self-leveling seat suspension systems provide you
with one of the smoothest, most reliable rides on the road. Century
class pushes the competitive age... When it's this good for the driver
- it's good for the fleet, productivity is what Century class is all
about. No wonder, Century class, it is a favorite truck!
Century class serviceability
Air and electric
lines on the frame. They're installed above the frame rails, bottom
flange after the chassis painted. The airlines are color-coded, and
electrical wires are numbered for easy identification. In addition, all
wires and lines are protected from dirt, salt and moisture, and give a
more finished appearance.
The new support
system for vertical exhaust mounts reduce Center, exhaust noise and is
lighter than the previous system.
New
100,000 psi steel
Allows more
efficient design of structural parts, reducing weight without reducing
strength.
The
chassis air harness
Is designed in such
a way that no connections needed to be opened to swing the air tanks
out-of-the-way. When servicing the transmission or clutch. This
automates the chance of mis-plumbing when they are reconnected, and
prevents dirt from getting into the system from open lines.
Sealed ball joints
In the steering its
system linkage extend the time between lubrication.
The
premium filter
In the power
steering or reservoir lengthens steering gear life.
Using
a 23 inch diameter fuel tank
Mounted higher on
the frame rail increases ground clearance without sacrificing fuel
capacity. The fuel and air tank share in aluminum bracket, reducing
weight.
Huckspin fasteners
Provide constant
clamping load and do not require a re-torquing, reducing maintenance
time and expense.
Overslung cross member
Improve stability of
the cab as well as front suspension.
34
inch nominal outside frame
width
Reduces frame
flange cutouts and notches around the engine, providing for a larger
space for improved engine isolation and extra PTO clearance.
The
front suspension
Has lower, softer
rated front springs, improving the ride. The usual grease bushings and
pins are replaced by a lube free rubber bushing.
Long
stroke brake chambers
With strokes
extended 1/2" increased stopping ability. A new generation of optional
front disc brakes, increased brake torque to shorten stops and reduce
brake fade.
Pre-set pre-greased bearings
increased seal life,
and never need adjustment.
The
clean top of the engine
reduces service time
are providing clear access to engine components. The engine is
positioned to reduce its intrusion into the cab, making it easy to
inspect and service, and leaving more space for the driver and
passenger.
It the engine air
intake system is serviceable from the ground and offers air filters that
last longer.
The
air dryer
Is located under the
head in the front of the right tire, making it easier to change . the
desiccant. This location also provides a downward slope for the
compressor discharge line, reducing water traps and risk of freezing
lines.
Available in both 1000 and 1200 inch sizes.
The aluminum core
radiator resist corrosion and weighs less than copper brass unit. A new
mounting system uses fewer parts to make it even lighter in removal
easier.
Mounted to the
radiator with flexible side to allow for expansion at high temperatures,
the charge air cooler reduces stress on the radiator and air cooler.
Short, straight plumbing increases reliability.
Bolt
on frame extensions
Are eliminated in
favor of continuous frame rail from the back to the front of the truck.
With no holes in the frame flange is after the first 2 feet to rails are
stronger, lighter and more stable.
Towing companies
Helped design the
towing hooks, to minimize front bumper damage. Two fixed hooks are
attached to the frame and protrude through the bumper. They allow a
loaded vehicle to be towed, and offer great stability in the recovery
operation.
Spray splash mud
flaps. In consideration of folks sharing the root Century class mud
flaps have moisture trapping material on the inner wheel well to reduce
the amount spray.
Hood
mounts.
Spring steel mounts
offer reduce vibration in the hooded, and adjustments are simple and
easy. That led to using a cantilever design, hiding them from sight
when latched, and a protruding hook when latched.
Frame
side fairings.
Wheel to wheel
chassis side fairings direct airflow, smoothly around the truck.
Cab
air suspension system.
Standard double air
bags in double shock absorbers result in a smoother, more comfortable
ride.
