When WesternStar was moved to Portland OR, it was to the Freightliner truck plant, because Freightliners parent company Daimler bought WesternStar
Forgot about the green goblin from maximum overdrive!
Good point. That truck had me confused when i was a kid, you couldn't see the grill. I thought it must have been an old Kenworth.
2:30 "hugh emphasis on comfort" laughinh as i sit in my 2018 4700sb with not even a single cup holder
does the seat and ride suck like the freighshaker
Can you please do a video on some orphan trucks?Such as Marmon or Diamond Reo.
Yes we will. We are doing the big boys first for our first 10 or so episodes. We will get the little guys here in 10-20. Expect to see them in October and November here.
Awesome,thank you.
My dad bought a new Conventional Diamond Rio in 1971
I built Mack's 84/5.
THE LONGEST LASTING TRUCK CAB DESIGN WAS PUT ON THE MARKET BY THE AUTOCAR CORPORATION IN 1950, THIS CAB BEING NAMED THE DRIVERS CAB!
IN 1951 WHEN THE AUTOCAR CO WAS MERGED INTO THE WHITE CORPORATION, THIS CAB WAS USED ALSO ON OTHER TRUCK BRANDS, INCLUDING WESTERN STAR.
THIS CAB DESIGN HAD SOME VERY MINOR CHANGES IN 1951 AND 1980 AND THE LAST USE OF THE ICONIC (AND DURABLE)
DRIVERS CAB DESIGN WAS USED BY WESTERN STAR UNTIL 1997!!
HOW MANY OTHER AUTOMOTIVE BODY DESIGNS HAVE BEEN IN USE FOR 47 YEARS!!?
Not many. The w900 has been around since 1961. Still manufactured to this day. 58 years. Also, Kenworth said they won’t retire it anytime soon so it good make it to 60!

HEY THANKS FOR THAT INFO!
FOR SURE ON THAT IF IT AINT BROKE DONT REPLACE IT!!
That's what I said, Autocar, White, Volvo, Western Star, did I miss anything?
Why are you shouting?
He's happy?
The Canadian versions were way more reliable
4964 reminds you of a Marmon
I can see the similarities..
I can see it too, if I could find a Marmon when I had a few k I'd buy it.
I'm actually surprised you didnt touch on the fact that the 5700 XE was the main protagonist in the 2 new Transformer films
We talked about it in our Truck history of western star, didn’t want to mention it again!
They are heavy junk made by frightshaker. Freightliner by another name AKA junk
Cheap dysfunctional garbage 🗑
You should do a complete White trucks vintage line-up. People don't know that they had; Western Star, Freightliner, Autocar, Road Boss, Road X-Peditor, and more!
Love the 5700 drove one for 4 years and loved it
In Tony Justice's song Stars stripes and white lines he mentions in the lyrics about Western Star Trucks. The lyrics being Eastbound Western Star
Could you guys possibly so a history of Hayes Manufacturing Company?
We can look into it!
@@jackschromeshop8296 Pacific Truck and Trailer history would be neat too
Ok video, nothing I didn't know though. I grew up in their predecessor, White 6000 and 9000. Until well into this century they still had the waist band just below the windows like the 6k and 9k.
I recall them doing a custom black out truck in the late 70s or early 80s. GORGEOUS TRUCK.
Sorry. Just a noisy pile of crap.
Guy's we have a western star truck here,
And we want to deactivate the ECCO system any advice we'll be really appreciated.
Didn't know they were originally made in Kelowna.
Kelona bc.
@@cowboykody6775 No, actually it is Kelowna

Pissed poor biased clip, this is not a review, just a marketing dirty tactics
Too bad WS killed their hood entirely and now use freightliner cabs
And there I am in #8, in the middle running the crane. Still there doing the same job.
Nice!
Too bad all you get now is a freightliner with Star badging so sad 😞
Falling star 🌠 cheap junk with an engine. Overpriced.
The 4964 was also in a strange some how horror film, given the lazy title “Trucks” And it’s about how trucks go and attack people. Very weird movie.
That does sound very odd!
Trucks is a Stephen King short story and was the basis for the movie Maximum Overdrive.
""Steel cowboy "" was a western star!!!
I love that movie.
True "original"
Can you do a video on Pierce Fire Engines?
4900ex lowmax my fav
So I know you guys going to do Sterling trucks
Of course!
@@jackschromeshop8296 thx
Where I work we got nothing but western star twin steer concrete trucks we just recently got the single steer western star with extra drop axle on back love the western star good job 👍
Can you tell me what's so great about the W.S. as a concrete truck? Also what other mixers have you driven besides W.S.
Your in British Columbia I bet.

I got a 5900 xe and theres definitely room for improvement. saw the new model 2024 and holy shit they did the improvement so much space inside. However they shrunk the bottom bed by a few inches. And no place to rest your elbow on meaning no armrest. Which is insane. Other then that nice trucl
And not one word about WHITE Western Star..........
Entire episode about White Trucks is coming soon. 😊
Made. Down. On
Swan. Island. The
Old. Freightliner

What about the famous Red WesternStar 6900XD? It's in Mudrunner, a trucking game.
What makes some people think they know more then everyone else? This had one little thing I had forgotten.
How is this a history overview????
It isn’t. It’s a 10 Things You Didn’t Know About Western Star Trucks. We have another video called the History of Western Star Trucks on our channel.
Can u please do a video on Volvo truck history
Yes we will!
As soon as they can find 10 photos of Volvo’s people would want to see!
They too, evolved from White trucks, who, oddly enough, made sewing machines in the early 20th century.
Yep White Road Commodes!
You forgot Australian version...
Atleast metion the WesternStar 6900XD!
Just got rid of 3 western stars and thank God I did! Never again. Horrible wiring, all 3 were bought new and had more down time than work time. BTW, Horrible customer service!
Every single one I've run had had a fuel tank sensor failure lol
Great video!
Thanks for watching!
