Hi guys, for those who haven't heard of it, the 114SD is one of Freightliner's newest vocational trucks. What do you think of it? I'll hold my personal comments for now.

Looks "Mackish" to me. Would love to see it pulling a load of logs down a dusty Georgia dirt road.

Hmmm, if that's the best the Freightshaker design team can come up with...:rolleyes:

Nevertheless, really doesn't matter what it looks like, at a well over $100k price tag for just the chassis - it doesn't matter what I think about it since I won't be buying one.:cool:

On edit - It looks like an International 5500i.

Right on CM1995, almost the old Lodestar shape, but definitely late 70's/early 80's International grille bar look, maybe they hoped we had all forgotten by now. :D
Cab itself looks smart though.

Looks like a recent Mack combined with a 70's to 80's Binder.

Other than that, it looks OK to me Good visibility out front.
