Western Star 4900

4900

The classic hand-built Star.

For decades the 4900 was Western Star's heavy-duty conventional flagship, offered with the roomy Constellation cab introduced in 1996 from a joint Western Star/DAF design, large sleepers, and even a lowered-cab Low Max variant built for auto haulers. It was retired and replaced by the next-generation 49X for the 2021 model year, ending one of the brand's longest production runs.
