2016 Freightliner M2-106

FOR SALE: 2016 FREIGHTLINER M2-106 26' TANDEM AXLE FLATBED – CUMMINS ISL 8.9L – 330 HP – EATON-FULLER 10-SPEED MANUAL – LEASE RETURN Offered for sale is a 2016 Freightliner M2-106 Tandem Axle 26' Flatbed Truck, a heavy-duty Class 8 commercial truck equipped with a 26-foot Supreme steel platform body, Cummins ISL diesel power, an Eaton-Fuller 10-speed manual transmission, and a rugged 6x4 tandem-axle drivetrain. This configuration is ideally suited for building material suppliers, lumber yards, roofing companies, steel and pipe distributors, construction contractors, equipment suppliers, industrial operations, agricultural businesses, and commercial fleets requiring a large open platform with serious weight-carrying capability. Unlike lighter single-axle flatbeds, this M2-106 carries a substantial 53,220 lb GVWR and a 40,000 lb tandem rear axle rating, providing the heavy-duty chassis capacity needed for demanding commercial hauling. The truck is a lease-return unit with 216,028 miles and only 4,675 engine hours, making it an attractive work-ready platform for businesses requiring a true heavy-duty flatbed. Power is supplied by the proven Cummins ISL 8.9L turbo diesel inline six-cylinder engine producing 330 horsepower. The ISL is a well-established heavy-duty commercial diesel engine designed for vocational applications where torque, durability, and long service life are critical. Its 8.9-liter displacement provides the pulling power needed to move substantial payloads while maintaining dependable performance during highway and job-site operation. The truck carries a large 80-gallon diesel fuel tank, providing excellent operating range for regional hauling and reducing downtime associated with frequent refueling. The Cummins diesel is paired with an Eaton-Fuller 10-speed manual transmission, a traditional heavy-duty drivetrain configuration widely used in commercial trucking because of its durability, driver control, and ability to handle demanding loads. The 10-speed gearbox gives an experienced operator a broad range of ratios for getting heavy loads moving, climbing grades, maintaining highway speeds, and controlling the truck under varying operating conditions. Combined with the Cummins ISL and the truck's 6x4 tandem-drive configuration, this drivetrain provides the mechanical foundation required for serious commercial hauling applications. Built on Freightliner's proven M2-106 platform, this truck is configured as a Class 8 heavy-duty vehicle with a 53,220 lb GVWR. The chassis features full air brakes, heavy-duty Freightliner spring suspension, tandem rear axles, and a substantial 13,220 lb front axle rating with a 40,000 lb tandem rear axle rating. This gives the truck considerably greater carrying capability than the 25,999 lb non-CDL flatbeds commonly used for lighter commercial applications. A long 270-inch wheelbase provides the foundation necessary to properly support the 26-foot body while contributing to excellent highway stability and weight distribution. Mounted on the chassis is a Supreme 26-foot flatbed/platform body measuring 102 inches wide. The large open deck provides exceptional versatility for transporting lumber, structural steel, roofing materials, pipe, construction supplies, palletized products, machinery, equipment, landscaping materials, and other oversized or irregularly shaped cargo that cannot conveniently be transported inside an enclosed body. The full 102-inch width maximizes usable deck space, while the 26-foot platform provides substantial length for bulky commercial loads. The body uses durable steel construction with a wood floor, combining a rugged structural foundation with a practical cargo surface for everyday loading and unloading. One of the most useful features of this Supreme platform is its integrated strapping system, providing operators with a convenient cargo-securement solution for the wide variety of materials commonly carried on a flatbed. The open platform allows forklifts to approach the cargo from either side or the rear, dramatically improving loading flexibility compared with an enclosed truck body. This configuration is especially valuable for building supply companies and contractors that routinely load pallets, lumber, pipe, roofing products, equipment, or other materials using forklifts or cranes. With no permanent stake sides restricting access to the platform, the entire deck remains readily accessible for loading and unloading. The 6x4 tandem-drive configuration is another major advantage for demanding hauling applications. Both rear axles form part of the drive tandem, allowing the truck to distribute substantial loads across a 40,000 lb rear axle group while providing the traction expected from a heavy-duty commercial chassis. Combined with full air brakes and Freightliner's heavy-duty spring suspension, this configuration makes the truck particularly well suited for construction materials, industrial supplies, equipment transport, and othe
