What WON'T they put a fuba on?
Actually, I have known since 1984 that Freightliner belongs to MB. I
don't know if Freightliner existed before, but MB had an image problem
in North America. They had a hard time selling industrial trucks while
they are known for luxury cars, so they used the Freightliner name
instead.
