    We used to service the local ABF hub in Detroit. Fleet of 25+ Sterlings. After learning all of the little tricks became very easy to work on. I still have many parts. PM with what you need, I might have. Go to ABF website. They used to sell parts and wrecked/used vehicles very cheap.

    First shop I worked at the company had a mid-2000s Sterling water truck. Pretty much a Freightliner with an updated Aeromax cab. Thing wasn't as pretty as the Western Stars they had but it got the job done.

    On the early ones, nothing changed but the badges. Everything still had Ford part numbers. I had a 2000 Silverstar.

    Richest exhaust note of any truck I've driven. Dual mufflers under the cab, with straights from there up the back of the sleeper.
