The Sterling Bullet is a medium-duty vocational truck that was marketed by Sterling Trucks from 2007 to 2009. It is a rebadged Dodge Ram, specifically the 3500/4500/5500 Chassis Cab variant, with the most visible difference being the unique grille compared to the Ram.
The chassis for the Bullet was designed for use with a variety of truck configurations, including dump, contractor, towing, and box trucks.
The main difference between the Ram and rebadged Bullet was a new front fascia and both 'Sterling' and 'Bullet' badging on the exterior of the truck. Both 2-Door Regular Cab and 4-Door Quad Cab models were available. To differentiate the Bullet from the related Ram 3500/4500/5500 Chassis Cab, the former was only available with the latter's 6.7L Cummins ISB engine, with no gasoline engine option. Both manual and Aisin AS68RC heavy-duty automatic transmissions were offered (both transmissions were six-speed units), as was two-wheel-drive (rear-wheel-drive) or four-wheel-drive. Standard features included an A/M-F/M radio with single-disc CD/MP3 player and auxiliary audio input, a two-speaker sound system, full instrumentation, vinyl flooring, vinyl seating surfaces, forged steel wheels, black bumpers and front grille, bench seating, and manual windows and door locks. Options included air conditioning, cloth seating surfaces, chrome bumpers and front grille, power windows and door locks, keyless entry, security system, chrome-plated forged steel wheels, a tilt-adjustable steering column, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a cruise control, and a four-speaker sound system.
The equivalent Dodge Ram 3500, 4500, and 5500 chassis cab trucks were sold alongside the Bullet. Thus, there was no replacement for the Bullet with another vehicle. After the 2009 model year, the Ram HD Series of trucks was redesigned.
