    I see UPS dragging doubles with Sterlings on 59 all the time.

    The new company I work for put me in one. It has been well maintained and has a twin turbo Cat in it with a 13 speed. It has a longer wheel base and I pull tank with it. Rides pretty decent and the Cat has a lot of power. If I were given a choice between this truck and the Columbia I trained in. I'd take the Sterling. Columbia now there is a cheap ### truck. Does anyone else hate the #### windshield wiper controls on them?:biggrin_2556:

    The wiper controls are the same on the old Century I'm in. I'd like to punch the guy who came up with them. I can't hardly get the #### things to shut off when I want them to. I wish they'd have kept it simple like the rotating knob the FLD had.
