I started with Western Stars in the late sixties when these were popular fleet trucks and far from pretty albeit functional and reliable. They are today one of the, if not the nicest tractors being produced. The interior, especially the instrument panel layout with individual gauges neatly clustered and switch banks all in one place put all the other manufacturers to shame. Western Star has figured out that truckers want to continue to drive trucks. Paccar, Daimler and the rest want you to believe that you need the latest fad in instrumentation integration. Also, I never did enjoy sharing my cab space with half of the engine. Keep that out front and under the hood not jamming my throttle foot out the door. This one in the video is a sharp looking truck and I would think, not hard to work in all day.

KENWORTH W9 and this truck are the ONLY ones I consider.

It’s a beautiful truck. Only thing to make it better would be a 6NZ CAT & 8 inch stacks. If you’re gonna look that good might as well have power & sound. Would be awesome glider.

I LIKE this truck!! I also like the way the dash is set up.

man thats sharp!

a masterpiece!!!

This a very nice truck, and a good video of it, great job, I wish I could have the money for IT, ha h ha, some day. TH

They should use this one in the remake of Maximum Overdrive

damn Western Star.... Nice piece of class there ...but it's missing a pedal and a stick

would be a lot better if the table was embedded onto the bunk & put a nice 60' TV right there the top bunk is decent ride

old truck big crome y love wstar

Where can you go for pricing information ?

Now that's a handsome unit! That retro paint scheme really drives the classic styling home. I have always loved me some Western Star...ya gotta stop usin' that horrible music though.

I have one identical to that

What music ?

Cual es su costo?

Western star isn’t my favorite brand, peterbilt and kenworth is, but this truck definitely looks good.

Now all it needs is a c16 glider kit

what is the songname?

Looks like three Peterbilt owners are jealous. To think you can get that from the factory and Peterbilt you can't even get breather lights from the factory.

You don't eat inside a nice truck like that, you eat inside a restaurant. If you run at night, you won't need sunglasses or you can easily hang them on your shirt collar, pocket, sun visor etc.

Well Kevin, both trucks you mention (basically one and the same from Paccar) are nice looking machines from the outside but I know from many past experiences with one of those brands, they don;t hold up all that well when subjected to inferior road and poor pavement conditions constantly. My cabover was popping rivets on a never ending basis and absolutely everything mounted in the interior managed to un-mount itself well within the first year. I still admire a good looking 389 Pete passing by but would never personally consider spending my money on something that shoddy. No sir, if I have o run on moonscape highways, I want all of the truck to be there when I get home, not scattered all over the nation.
