2023 WESTERN STAR 49X (JST6)

[@chevyon37s]

I’m so glad you’ve built your company to where you can spend more time with your family! Been fun watching you build it from nothing! Keep it up!

[@RenegadesGarage]

JST.. As always cool video and awesome looking truck. Thanks for sharing it.

[@imballin93]

Hey Justin, Im a diesel mechanic in Australia and do abit of work on those Detroit's. If you're going to be servicing them yourself when you remove the oil filter always check that the spring loaded valve in the top of the stand pipe isn't broken. Can cause major issues if they aren't replaced when broken. Glad to see some videos back on the channel

[@markpivik6211]

What's up Junky, man I love that intro, man it's been time coming to hear it. Glad to see you are doing well and and able to comes out and make a video and show us another new toy. Hopefully it serves you well. Stay safe out there my friend and keep the videos coming and always travel safely catch you on the next one.

[@christopherkraemer]

I like the last 5 minutes of the video. You are just delegating stress away. You need to at your size. This life was made to live. It gets so hard to work all the time, and be stressed all the time. Good for you in promoting within.

[@tohersfire4242]

Love the fact you never hold back when it comes to sub-par shit. Always keeping it real. Good luck with the new truck. Tell the drive we always keep the shiny side up.

[@scottboys4js]

Definitely like this guy 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 unapologetic and completely himself

[@dustinlowry9075]

Hey Justin I’m a John Deere technician out Central California. I know you hate California so does everyone else Lol. I Love truck you have awesome fleet of Dump trucks. Thank you for the videos. I do training in Columbus Ohio every now and then

[@HigherBracket]

Very nice. I sold my trucking company last year with 16. That was all I could take. Very cool watching you grow that deal with all the new shit.

[@jorgerios134]

How much are 16 wheelers bringing in over there? They make around $110/ hr here in AZ.

[@keyboard101101]

My company switched to these 49X western stars last year from mostly Peterbilt 567s. These trucks definitely feel more solidly put together. Plus these Detroit engines sound and feel more oldschool.

[@user-ln7of9gs4s]

Yes! Much better turbo sounding. I just prefer the Allison, over the automated transmissions.

[@sammapes1216]

awesome truck. You're video's are fun to watch. I like how u just say how it is. keep up the great work.

[@christopherkraemer]

My 49x has the Cummins in it. But the one I got ordered for February has the Detroit in it. Hope it holds together. The only problem I got is the small fuel tanks. One 100 Gallon tank isn’t enough for a 12 hour run for us.

[@drewmurphy2796]

Beautiful truck Justin, out of curiosity why did you get the Detroit to get all the safety stuff? Insurance discount?

[@chrisromano3862]

Glad to see your business is prospering man. Ive been watching way back since the video of the original jst western star rolling over came up on my feed. I knew the point where you had to have that manger/buffer between you and the drivers was coming...that's just the reality of growth. You can't run your business successfully when your stressed and mad all the time. We had to suggest and implement the same thing for my grandfather when he started pulling into the shop with the .38 on his hip on Monday mornings. Congrats again man on the growth and success.

[@santo8389]

Thinking of getting rid of my Pete 567 and getting a 49x or 47x.

[@kevincornelissen7602]

On one of your videos you used a large weather pack electrical connector set what brand is that one

[@sheepdog1102]

Moving on up! Looking good 👍

[@aidenlepore]

The newer detriot engines have definitely come along away. Nice to see it’s not all about the X15 Cummins 😊

[@loshombre2926]

How do you get around the insane price hikes for new trucks? Or do you?

[@romanshevy257]

What made you go for WS over the other brands ?

[@kevincornelissen7602]

Love your videos , are the truck dealers doing or offering aggressive lease options since the price of trucks are thru the roof.

[@superchickensexcavation2230]

Hey Justin- great truck very nice! Is there a way to fix the PTO so it functions in a usable manor? I also wondered if you ever ran Volvo trucks? I run a 15 VHD64 DD13 Tri axle Aluminum box. We just do dirt and gravel. Just curious of your thoughts on the Volvo product line.

[@davidforbes6250]

Well done Justin! Less stress is good living!

[@waynenorbreyjr9371]

Another sharp looking truck there Justin!👍👍

[@alexmoffitt3508]

Does the PTO work without the parking brake on when you are in paving mode?

[@JUSTINSTURGILLTRUCKING]

Yes, you have to have it programmed at the dealership

[@swoop7239]

What is a proximate price for something like this?

[@leepatton1180]

Truck looks great

[@Kevin-wj4ed]

Do you have problems getting and keeping employees? Thank you.

[@maximejette7674]

how many trucks do you have in total?

[@wyattconger1692]

Is that a set forward axle?

[@gangsta19x]

We need you back Justin, come back to KZbin 🙌🏻

[@nitebluesky]

The sales guy ordered it wrong. I'm not surprised the PTO doesn't work. The parameters to change is in the CPC. @15:18

[@bluefj-wc3vz]

Nice unit there hoss. 🤘🏻

[@bsm1th99]

If I had a CDL, I would definitely want to work for you

[@ThetrueTeddyB]

Nice watch, even nicer truck. 💪🏽

[@robertmailhos8159]

Sweet looking truck there Justin

[@badiesel19]

glad to see you post another video justin you will have to do another live stream soon and do you plan on getting back into quads again?

[@bonniedobkin6948]

A Doctor of Delegation 👍🏻❤️🏴‍☠️🎥💯%😎🔧👌🍕💰

[@brandonpryormusic]

If your drivers know how to stay centered in the paver, you shouldn’t have to worry about that light 7:32. Had them on my truck and never had a problem.

[@beluxauto5968]

Nice going Justin. Keep on showing them who's boss.

[@cardsfan2321]

Man please start making more videos! This is what you were born to do lol

[@chrisspear3551]

We got the DD 15 with the Allison trans 430 gears and the truck has been awsome

[@roadrunner2055]

Damn good looking truck

[@badgerpa9]

Glad you have someone to help run things so you can spend time with the family. You always want an employee that learns the business and is better than you, or why did you invest all the training and time into them. Be safe.

[@jncn1490]

Badass

[@Graveltrucking]

If Freightliner still made Sterling you'd buy one in a heartbeat 😂

[@martindiego6795]

What is the size of the rims for the left axel

[@waynenorbreyjr9371]

The 8k lift axle uses a wheel that’s either 17.5x6” or 17.5x6.75”.

[@jamorgan7638]

Great truck

[@brandon_2468]

Dozer video please, house update video also. Ww need more of JST!

[@southernkingtv3674]

Just picked my 49x up to pull end dump and it wouldn’t let up with the park brake off, the technician at the dealership plugged the laptop up to it a did something and it’s letting up now with the brake off. It’s a code thing he said.

[@The19bull52]

First off 😂! Secondly that rig is bad ass! No different than the rest of them.

[@Garth2011]

Good deal JST. It is what it is...

[@IndioBlanco5]

hell yeah! 00:58

[@B.E.Long.63]

Why are you such a Bad Ass.. lol... Nice looking truck there my friend.

[@joshlacatus8373]

your have the best intro🤣🤣🤣

[@TAT760]

What’s up boss man!!

[@Jay-xz2lo]

Let me know if you ever want to sell one of your 49x’s

[@romanshevy257]

Does he say how these have held up?

[@Wc3ProElimZ]

There is a set of parameters in diagnostic link that they or anyone who has access to it can change to help with that. Off the top of my head I don't know exactly what they are but it's something like Park Brake Interlock. Basically these cabs are smart and have a certain amount of parameter checkpoints they need to pass in order to engage PTOs or whatever else you might be doing. The TCM being the main one which seems to take command over piggyback checks. Changing the PBI setting to not active will force the only parameter to be met as a neutral interlock check. I work on 47x and 49x trucks every day new from factory along with the new Freightliner and Peterbuilts coming out. These 47/49x trucks were the WORST trucks electrically to grasp and understand how to program. It took literal YEARS of us fighting with engineers who didn't even fully understand how or why something worked. Huge pain.

[@nickthrane4940]

Big Dog DD16! 💪😍🤤

[@jessesager9460]

I still enjoy the intro 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. Hopefully your Western Stars don’t do what our new Freightliners did and blow the horn with the door open and parking brake released 🙄

[@jessesager9460]

@Oliver 880 because we are a 24/7 animal feed production business, and deliver to farms 24 hours. Farmers don’t need to hear a horn blaring if a driver opens a door to help him see while backing around.

[@nitebluesky]

@@jessesager9460 there's a parameter in the sSAM you can turn it off.

[@farhanabdulhamid4214]

Ok good invest okay brother

[@Dmax_Willy]

sometimes safety interupts production massively

[@mikescaffo4850]

Hey Justin keep up the good work and keep the videos coming your and inspiration and I love listening to you because you don't make excuses you make decisions you sir are a leader

[@OffroadCpl]

Nice truck I used to run crysteel beds check them out.

[@joereiche3547]

very nice ...but seems really high $ to maintain

[@rjacko7478]

You need to stay focus on the cash cow , looking good 👍

[@marcvalliant8131]

Tranny is called "DT-12" not dd12 I believe

[@redrockracing4571]

You still doing quads?

[@christopherkraemer]

Those bed hinges look like junk. With all those holes it looks like it’s going to be a weak point. Our dealer has been putting Chrystal boxes on.

[@charlesmoore2485]

I love these guys talking up a Detroit storm like it was a silver 92 screamer or a 60 series. It’s a Mercedes ,, look close , Germany. Austria. it’s good though. They definitely know how to build a Diesel engine !!

[@PlayWaves1]

The DD16 is quite a bit different than the OM473. Specifically 200 parts that are different. The only exact parts commonality is the block. There's an article from New Zealand called "The OM 473, what it is and what it is not" and a Motor Trend article called "Mercedes-Benz OM 473 Diesel Engine - Torque" that talk about the differences.

[@screamingeagle4525]

I don’t know how long you keep your trucks,but don’t let them idle if possible,that’s what kills the engine and the one box that Diamler does not care if it goes bad,because when it goes bad it will cost you about 15000. To replace it,believe me I got one myself

[@cookies-monster]

What's up brother...

[@seanoconnor1398]

There’s got to be a way around that PTO E brake lock out. Is there no new Western Star water trucks? How are you supposed operate a water truck without a “hot PTO” There’s countless issues that would arise on trucks and equipment if they aren’t allowed a “hot PTO”

[@nitebluesky]

The truck was set up with a common set up for a PTO. The sales guy(s) either didn't know what he was doing or just wanted to make a sale. The truck is customizable. So to make the changes its in the CPC.

[@redblock5949]

why automatic? Hard to find a proper driver?

[@gurvindergrewal4990]

Better get those hood emblems recall done

[@10rcoleman]

Dam what kind of drivers you got you have to put all that safety crap on it?

[@ekennebago]

Nice truck. Love the garbage seating! Typical Diamler. It looks a bit like International. Good ride nevertheless.

[@scotty2jobsscotty2jobs34]

Liaison??? Come on man. She’s a driver supervisor.

[@ByrdmanTrucker]

Are you still alive??? Its been 9 months.. since your last video.. update video soon!!!

[@ubirajuniorvieirabrandao7162]

Caminhão bonitão 🚛🚚🚚🚛🚚🚛🚚

[@mikes1292]

Let's go Brandon

[@p2o8wer]

That truck is pure dummy proof. All the lights on it. Now there’s no excuse for hitting stuff at night. the cameras for the bed so you can see where the asphalt is falling and the Millings are going. It takes no skills to drive and work that truck. Now don’t get me wrong. It’s a beautiful truck and I’d love to work it.

[@TheDannygurley]

First!!!!

[@nicktracy4118]

😂😂😂😂 what the heck did I stumble across

[@bowwinkle6651]

Sounds Like It’s All Bullshit 😂

[@joewebster4981]

its refreshing to hear someone else talk me, every other fucking word fuck. fuck this fuck that…. way to keep it fucking real. the fuckers at youtube probably dont fucking like but fuck them. great video nice fucking truck!

[@nickthrane4940]

Whacky Engineer not knowing what a PTO is used for! 🤣✌️

[@jimsmith1946]

Looks like you've been on a diet, not

[@10rcoleman]

Dam it’s a nice truck but I can’t handle all that babysitter shit if you can’t drive don’t climb your butt in one lol

[@alexisflores6048]

Need any drivers !? Ahah

[@farhanabdulhamid4214]

No yes investment ok

[@BoostedRex]

Fucking Legend!!!

[@johnharnish1355]

Need to lose some weight.

[@a_badali]

That's just the wide-angle camera lens

[@thenussbaum44]

Justin HOW THE FUCK are you doing??. I was wondering what you were up to. I see some big balling with that rollie and new trucks.

[@christianb9565]

After watching and listening to you struggle with that rear hatch handle, you may want to think twice before calling your drivers a bunch of "windshield lickers" ... Just sayin' ;)

[@Me.Calix01]

How in the fuck you doing Justin 😂

[@tima7763]

Just saw 2 of your videos. Must of been a lot of time between them…STOP eat doughnuts..

[@randybowman4847]

There not Detroit there Mercedes

[@PlayWaves1]

Not exactly. The DD16 is quite a bit different than the OM473. Specifically 200 parts that are different. The only exact parts commonality is the block. There's an article from New Zealand called "The OM 473, what it is and what it is not" and a Motor Trend article called "Mercedes-Benz OM 473 Diesel Engine - Torque" that talk about the differences. The DD16 has the least in common with the OM47x series compared to the DD13 and DD15.

[@ellerybice3787]

👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾

[@victorpinedo215]

This could’ve been a 17 minute educational video to the shts fcks and all nonsense plus the rolly show off would’ve been taken out. Was gonna listen but after the 4th shit & fck I clicked off.

[@user-ln7of9gs4s]

Deal with it, this isn’t an educational video. It’s truck tour.
