Like having the corner office

With its comfortable, ergonomic layout, the cab of the Columbia makes driving that much easier. The wrap-around dash is mounted low to increase driver visibility, and the backlit instruments are easy to read, day or night. The heating and cooling system has a full range of settings to provide fresh, filtered air exactly how the driver likes it. And all the controls are within easy reach, featuring strong, soft-touch paddles and long-life LED lights that glow amber when the switches are activated. The optional SmartShift “shift-by-wire” automated mechanical transmissions control lever allows drivers to choose between manual or automatic settings with automatic transmissions. The result is the ultimate in control and safety.

A variety of seating choices is available, including the Freightliner EzyRider and other quality brands. With every option, drivers will experience the ultimate in personalized comfort, reducing fatigue. Add to that a steering wheel with optional foot-operated tilt and telescoping features, and you have a truck drivers will be proud to operate.

Comfort that’s state of the art

All of our cabs are designed to maximize space and comfort, from the day to any of our SleeperCab configurations. Drivers will find plenty of storage for personal items and other features to make them feel more at home. Wide, soft incandescent lights reduce eye strain and add a feeling of warmth. Interiors feature easy-to-clean, stain-resistant fabrics and surfaces in a variety of colors. Choose from Autumn Red, Blue Horizon, Graphite Black and Opal Gray.

The cab is customizable with multiple cabinet, shelving, accessory and workstation options to create a space that’s just right. There’s even an optional AC power inverter that powers appliances directly from the vehicle’s battery or from an external source. And with the Columbia’s noise reduction technology, drivers and passengers enjoy a cab that’s quiet, comfortable and less stressful, whether they’re parked or on the road.
