jettalover ◊ 2011-11-11 04:13	MB emblem covered up on grille.
atom ◊ 2011-11-11 04:22	Obviously...The small badges read 316 CDI.
tonkatracker ◊ 2011-11-11 04:37	I think only the MB used this style of wheel center cap, but these were included in the MB Conversion kit as well.

tonkatracker ◊ 2011-11-11 08:37	kegare
CaMAroFaN ◊ 2011-11-11 10:17	Mercedes-Benz obvious with the Grayed-Emblem.
tonkatracker ◊ 2011-11-11 10:26	These (this generation) were not sold as Mercedes Benz here, only Freightliner and Dodge, but I don't think that this is a US-Spec model, check out the front license plate bracket, it looks like it is for EU-sized plates. Also this one is missing some of the Chrome and badges that come with the Conversion Kit (why waste all of that money on the kit, just to use the wheel caps and 2 grille emblems?) EDIT: listed as 2003 Mercedes Benz on Cinema Vehicles website: Link to "www.cinemavehicles.com" -- Last edit: 2011-11-11 10:33:39
-- ◊ 2011-11-11 10:34	And above the picture it says "2003 Dodge".
tonkatracker ◊ 2011-11-11 10:40	yeah I saw that as well but this one is still missing the adapter that US models got to cover the EU plate holder (but I guess that could have fallen off) Since Ford_Guy has a email-relationship with one of the guys at CV maybe he can email him to find out for sure.
Sandie ◊ 2011-11-11 14:19	Would the US models be badged 316 CDI or was that just a Mercedes thing?
tonkatracker ◊ 2011-11-11 17:46	It is just a Mercedes thing, but it also comes in the conversion kit...
Ford_Guy ◊ 2011-11-11 20:21	Here's their contact: Bob Hartwig [email protected] Just tell him you're from IMCDb and he'll help you out. I told him that others might contact him as well.
tonkatracker ◊ 2011-11-12 00:12	Thanks Ford_Guy I just sent him an email!
Ford_Guy ◊ 2011-11-12 00:24	No problem. Keep him in your contacts as I've found myself emailing him from time to time. He's extremely clear and helpful.
tonkatracker ◊ 2011-11-12 02:28	okay so according to Bob at Cinema Vehicles this truck is actually titled as a 2003 Freightliner.
