This page reads like an essay, and needs pictures. Also, a mention + picture of
Optimus Prime / Convoy and
Ultra Magnus would be nice. --

Now that Daimler has sold Chrysler, does Chrysler still own Freghtliner, or did Daimler keep it??? In any case, this page needs to be updated, as DaimlerChrysler no longer exists.
I thought that Consolidated started Freightliner in order to make cab over tractors which the established builders did not see a market for. Saltysailor ( talk) 19:09, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

Freightliner LLC → Freightliner — Propose we move this article to Freightliner, drop the LLC part that his out of date. ~ WikiDon ( talk) 04:59, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
Comment Freightliner is current a dabpage. Any recommendations for a solution? JPG-GR ( talk) 03:10, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
I've done this as there seems to be no opposition to it here. There are a couple of disambiguation things I have to do, but apart from that it should all be OK. Please let me know on my talk page if I've made a mistake. Cheers, Alex Muller 11:56, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
It is my intention/proposal to (re-)move this article to Freightliner Trucks or Freightliner (truck) (existing redirects). This is to distinguish the vehicle manufacturer (a division of Daimler AG) from a European rail-freight operator ( Freightliner (UK))—and to restore the disambiguity page (at Freightliner (disambiguation)) to the bare "Freightliner" link. By turnover, the rail freight operator (a former division of British Railways) is about 1⁄50th of the size [fl 1]; however, the trucked-related use is US-centric; approximately one third of the incoming links appear to be railway related—I will do a first run-through to fix all the links, but the restored disambig can catch future misdirected links. The bold section in the lead currently uses Freightliner Trucks, so it may be more appropriate to move this to that variation. — Sladen ( talk) 22:10, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
Annual group turnover in excess of £230m (€321m)
The statement "The Freightliner badge also adorns the Sprinter, a Class 2 van produced by Mercedes-Benz in Europe and marketed through Freightliner dealers, as well as through Chrysler dealers as a Dodge-branded offering." may be incoorect/out of date.
The official Freightliner Sprinter website (put up 2004) at http://www.fl-sprinter.com/ no longer has any Freightliner Sprinter info. Instead it is a clone of http://www.z-atlas.com/ -- a medical website. Did they abandon or sell the domain name? There is no mention of the Sprinter anywhere on http://www.freightlinertrucks.com/ either. The Wayback machine at http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.fl-sprinter.com/ shows the last snapshot with Freightliner Sprinter info at July 5th 2008.

How come I'm being redirected from Daimler Trucks North America to Freightliner Trucks? The latter may be the most important part of the former, but it is far from the only one ( Western Star, Thomas Built Buses, Detroit Diesel, ...)! Apart from that, DTNA (the official abbreviation of the company) does not even exist in the wiki. -- ComradeMicha ( talk) 09:53, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
The article refers to North Basin Street, but there is no indication where this place is located. 68.42.169.85 ( talk) 02:50, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
The link between the Cascadia legal controversies and Tesla's Guillen seems rather tenuous and smells of WP:OR. Could someone better versed in Wikipedia standards than me please take a look? 2A02:810A:B80:13E0:4ECC:6AFF:FEF8:6777 ( talk) 19:19, 8 June 2021 (UTC)
I think if you want some really good free advertisement you need to support the truckers right now with these mandates 2600:8801:2E80:8DD:68D4:9D5:82DF:CEDF ( talk) 17:19, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
