Building on decades of experience, Freightliner set out to take durability, reliability and ease of maintenance to a new level for the 21st century. Maybe that's why the Columbia was purchased by more fleets than any other Class 8 truck in the industry last year. More small and large fleets are turning to the Columbia for features like the aerodynamic design that not only offers a better-handling truck with greater visibility, but improved fuel economy as well. There's no doubt, the Columbia will stand up to miles and miles of use and keep delivering bottom line results.

Off-Road, Proven Performance
Improved Cab
The lightweight, aluminum cab offers a number of features including an improved door seal for reduced noise, an optional passenger-side sleeper door for easier access and a hingeless baggage door that’s larger than the opening for full compartment access.
Power Distribution Module
The Power Distribution Module is located in the dash, directly in front of the passenger seat, for quick access to fuses.
Engine Accessibility
The hood tilts to a 90-degree angle, providing easy access to the engine compartment. See-through fluid reservoirs provide an easy check and the inner quarter fenders are engineered to help keep road splash, spray and contaminants away from the engine, without limiting engine access.
Getting There with Cleaner Air
Freightliner is committed to meeting and exceeding the EPA Smartway voluntary specification that boost fuel economy and cut emissions. Cut your fuel costs with aerodynamic features like high roof, tractor, and fuel tank fairings, plus a 2007 model-year engine. The EPA estimates these, along with a pledge to end idling and using low-resistance tires can slash fuel consumption by 10-20 percent. 		US EPA Certified - SmartWay®
  • Headlight bulbs are easily accessible and can be replaced in minutes without the use of tools. The bulbs are also standard size for ease of availability and cost efficiency.


  • The two-piece curved windshield allows for partial replacement, provides greater visibility and is sloped at an optimum 24-degree angle to reduce drag and fuel costs.


  • The aerodynamic molded bumper reduces drag while its three-piece design minimizes repair costs by allowing individual section replacement.
