I have / had quite a few WESTERN STARS with CATS in them , they have been good trucks, you will love the space between the seats compared to other brands
buddyvuk Thanks this. -
Looks nice. Price not bad. Would it be hard to get work done on that truck?
buddyvuk Thanks this. -
Not anymore as ( WESTERN STAR ) is now part of FREIGHTLINER , besides other than the body / interior the rest is common to most makes of the same age.

The old Wstars are good trucks, especially with the 3406 CAT. I would be curious why it has such low miles for the year? Have a CAT shop check it out and run an oil spectrum if it has older oil still in it. You won't see much better than 6mpg but the price is right.

nt much better than 6mpg??? ohh thats badd

She's pretty Bud......but that's a big gal ( tare ) and generally not welcome in tankers ( should you ever go that way ) because of her weight....and the Cat.
I'm suspicious of the miles too......but if you do it, she has a lot of class. you'll ride good on that WB, just be a beach to get her in somewhere tight.
If you can get the ok on the Cat....and you want to stroll from the left coast to the right....this is a good one.
JMObuddyvuk Thanks this.
