Personally, I love Western Stars. I would buy a Star over anything on the market. What are the specs?

look at how many hrs are on the engine and look for signs of excessive blow by . Western Star is a good vocational truck if rigged right so sad they had to shorten frame. They want to shorten my Pete frame when I put my 15 ft bed on I told them to make it work as it sits so I have about 17 " between back of cab and dump body

My Western Star triaxle is an excellent truck. Absolutely no problems. As said before, Western Star makes good vocational trucks. Mine is a '98.
