Introducing what isn't just the best truck we've ever built, but what might be the best truck anyone has ever built.
BREAK NEW GROUND WITH THE 49XThe entire X-Series line of trucks was built from the ground up to bring toughness into the modern age with an impressive collection of engineering, technology and more than half a century of experience building trucks that take on any challenge, anywhere. So, whether you need a rugged vocational truck or a semi truck, and whether you've owned Western Star for years or will for the first time, it's time to break new ground with the 49X.
Features may include:
CHASSIS- Built For The Challenge
The heavy-duty vocational frame underneath the 49X is engineered to stand up to the demands of severe service applications.
CAB- Making Legendary Performance Lighter And Safer
Constructed from a premium-grade aluminum and enhanced with steel reinforcements.
POWERTRAIN- Powered By Proven Performance
Whether you're working on construction sites, in quarries, in logging, or even on the road, there's a Detroit engine option for your.
UPFIT- Engineered For Upfit
The X-Series was created with Truck Equipment Manufacturers (TEMs) in mind. We designed the truck to ease body upfit for every type of truck including dump trucks, cement mixers, cranes, and engineered it with features to make it fast and simple to access wiring and add controls.
POWER HOOD- Where Legacy Meets Evolution
Power Hood combines the need of high power and the traditional hood style for the toughest and steepest terrain.
PLANETARY AXLE- Expanding Heavy Haul
Meritor P600 available in tandem or tridem configurations for heavy haul applications with GCWs of 200,000+ lbs.
DOORS- Forged Steel Door Hinges
Internally mounted protection from the elements. Greater durability to prevent sagging -- a common problem with piano hinges
ROOF- Trench-style Low Roof
Composite roof with a lowered center section enables optimized packaging of overcab equipment, giving you a purpose-built vehicle that minimizes overall vehicle height while maximizing interior headroom and door opening.
UPTIME- Our Job Is To Keep You Doing Yours
Our X-Series trucks represent a big advancement in productivity for vocational trucks thanks to Detroit Connect®. Detroit Connect translates the performance data of any type of truck into real-time information you can use to make the decisions that can help you keep those trucks working and earning.
