Western Star 6900 Trucks

It takes a big man to admit defeat. And a bigger truck so he doesn't have to.

When you need to move mountains, there's only one truck for the job: the Western Star 6900 truck. Spec'ed as a tractor, it can haul loads of over 500,000 pounds. And as a dump, it can move 80,000 pounds at a time. Add in another ton of options, and you've got a truck that's as powerful as it is customizable. From log trucks to dump trucks to extreme duty trucks, the 6900 can handle it all.



Applications :
  • Mining
  • Logging
  • Oil & Gas
  • Heavy Haul
  • Construction
  • Towing & Recovery
