Why We Love the Western Star 4700

Companies in construction, transport, and disposal need reliable fleet vehicles that can withstand heavy-duty use. Western Star 4700 fits this bill, and this truck has long been known for its durability. Learn why this model is trusted by those in the blue-hat sectors.

Powertrain

The power and capability are largely thanks to its engine, the Detroit DD13, which has been consistently refined and improved. In its current iteration, this diesel engine utilizes Thermal Control Valve technology for improved regen performance. The improved compression ratio and piston design also enables greater fuel efficiency.

Cab

The cab is made from high-grade aluminum and fortified with steel reinforcements. The end result is more interior space and greater durability, all while using lighter weight materials. The cab's high strength also allows for higher payload when used as a dump or log truck, or as a concrete mixer.

Safety

With its size and industrial application, safety is paramount. The Western Star 4700 is fitted with Detroit Assurance, the manufacturer's suite of safety technology. Some of the notable safety features include the Side Guard Assist, which detects possible hazardous objects on the passenger's side of the road. Another is Active Brake Assist 5, which alerts you when braking is necessary due to an object in your direct line of path.

Cabin Interior

Despite the truck's hard exterior, the cabin is made for comfort and efficiency. The steering column is fully adjustable. In addition, the multi-function steering wheel allows the driver to control functions like the stereo and cruise control without taking their hands off the wheel.
