Can't wait to buy it this afternoon in ATS. Good Job Western Star and Daimler. Carson and his team have outdone themselves this time.

[@pestfakeprophetmohammedrap8533]

It needs thinner fenders n front bumper to be flush with the wheels. Truckers squeeze into tight spaces daily u don't need to make it wider for absolutely 0 reasons it'll function just fine if u hammer in the fenders and shave off the front bumper off the sides to make it thinner I suggest u do it otherwise great truck except the chrome blinding everyone during sunny days

[@juanmanuelpalma9929]

I will miss my 47X in ATS... but it looks wonderful!

[@simfamous]

I just drove this on a live stream IN AMERICAN TRUCK SIMULATOR on KZbin and it was a hit! LOVE THE TRUCK

[@conradoele]

My new favourite truck in American Truck Simulator!

[@randomthings7035]

Best Western Star 57X commercial

[@nickfoster9350]

I have limited experience driving Western Star trucks, but every time I get the opportunity to, it always puts me in good mood for work. The best trucks out there, in my opinion.

[@elvisamorimga]

Só vem 57X... Aaaaaah Western Star nós te amamos, SCS agora é sua vez ❤ "onde quer que vá sempre terá um BR" 🇧🇷

God damn Thank you Western Star and SCS Software

looks like a cascadia sleeper to me, but with a (in my opinion) better looking front, looks great western star

[@truckingwithwim8039]

@Marcus Wilson yes exactly

[@jerrylee7801]

@Marcus Wilson it should do

[@copescale9599]

It basically is a Cascadia.

[@RyoTheTiger]

Both are basically Daimler

[@charlesharwood5705]

It's a Daimler product so it's the same, just gives buyers and fleet companies more options! Personally I think it looks alot better the the Cascadia!

[@Ganslit]

Thanks SCS and Western Star to add this truck in American Truck Simulator game

[@timthetatmantm]

Damn this is 4k ultra graphics good truck it is my favorite I'll drive all day

[@Arturo796]

I got say this truck looks very nice great new look for western star design wise is spot on interior and exterior

[@Z38_US]

I'm not a Truck Diver and I don't even like Trucks that much but I kinda want this one lol

[@andrewharris6652]

Gonna be driving this in ATS!

[@ruifuli8778]

There are 3 pair of twin trucks now, they share same powertrain and some major parts. 57x & Cascadia 579 & T680 VNL & Anthem Only LT is alone.

[@Juniper_H]

So the LT and the lonestar don't count? I guess you're going with different companies technically but same truck.

[@ruifuli8778]

@@Juniper_H The Lonestar is somewhat a different design, which is classic and less aerodynamic. Btw, I mean different brands has similar trucks, not same brand.

[@Juniper_H]

@@ruifuli8778 that's what I thought you had meant.

[@tommyw.9424]

@@ruifuli8778 Lonestar and LT share the same cab, they're the same truck from the firewall back.

[@sergiotrucker3011]

No, pete and kw have completely diferend suspensions and different interior and fiferent sleepers, but this and cascadia is just a different hood

[@suleymang7576]

Good job.Looks amazing

I love that 57x!

[@cpt.mucahit]

EXTREME TRUCK EVER so gooddd Thanks daimler and scs

[@adithya_2001]

Of all the three X-Series models, two of them had been represented into ATS at the same time as the irl release, those are the 49X (Long-Hood Vocational Truck) in 1.38 and this, the 57X (Aero-optimised Highway Truck) in 1.45. Even though the 47X (Short-Hood Vocational Truck) won't make it into the game, still, both of those models are awesome. Thanks SCS and Western Star for adding these two into ATS

[@TheWickedReactions]

So we're not even trying anymore are we? Yall just took the hood of a Western Star, slapped it on a Freightliner Cascadia body and called it a day.

[@misterlove6225]

They coul've at least use a different steering wheel and gauges to at least give you the impression that you're not driving a Cascadia. Truck looks good, can't deny it, but like you said, it's just a Cascadia with a western star nose...

[@RyoTheTiger]

Because both are owned by Daimler Trucks.

[@misterlove6225]

@@RyoTheTiger Lamborghini is owned by Volkswagen but guess what? The Aventador is not a Passat with different headlights and front bumper.

[@RyoTheTiger]

@@misterlove6225 that's not a comparison. Trucks are meant to be worked with, so you use allready exsisting assets that are working. Cheaper production costs AND ceaper repair costs. An aventador is just for flex. Of course it has to look different.

[@RyoTheTiger]

@@misterlove6225 also... the engine of lamborghini is made by Audi... so basically it's an Audi with an Lambo chassi lol

[@Breyzipp]

Came here to check out the truck since it’s in SnowRunner 👍

[@IBims1Mark]

amazing, I hope the sounds and the horn are amazing!

[@williamwarner3982]

Nice Freightliner. Sad to see the White-GMC cab go away.

[@rocksjoshua]

Am I the only one who thinks this looks like a Freightliner Cascadia with Western Star badges?

[@RonDeSantis2028]

Oh my goodness shut up. It’s made by the same company, when they made western star and Freightliner they knew shat they wanted to do with the company’s. Making a different design for each wasnt that. Instead, they wanted each company to have different options when it comes to what’s under the hood.

[@rocksjoshua]

@@RonDeSantis2028 I’m not hating, I love my Freightliner

[@Invocated_Agitator]

It literally IS Cascadia, 95% of this truck is litearlly cascadia. The only things that are different are the hood, bumper, mirrors, and the 20% of the door has a different shape, other 80% of the door is cascadia door. The indide of the truck, the specs of the truck, Cascadia. Ignore ATF, he's an angry WS fanboy who hate facts.

[@TeaDrivenDev]

I know it's a Cascadia, but this one actually looks good.

[@charlesmakuwaza5584]

[@doobydodap]

GREAT TRUCKER

[@Leyvis_YT]

Fantastic

[@Freightlinerbob]

Looks like a less aerodynamic Cascadia with a smaller market making parts more expensive. I like my 5700xe but I think my next one will be a Cascadia.

[@everythingnewoncarsworld9608]

Oh come on man the gmc yukon and Chevrolet Tahoe are the same size and the same some of the interior design

[@Freightlinerbob]

@@everythingnewoncarsworld9608 there will be far more Cascadias sold vs 57x. That will make replacement and aftermarket parts more popular and cheaper. The term for that is called “economy of scale”. Unless the current Cascadia gets a giant facelift soon, it will continue to be the most popular truck in NA. There’s no way the 57x will ever match its numbers. Making replacement parts more expensive.

[@rikardandersson7288]

@@Freightlinerbob the only parts that will be more expensive are the western star specific parts, i.e. the front of it. for the rest any sensible person would just buy the freightliner parts instead since they 99% will be identical

[@Freightlinerbob]

@@rikardandersson7288 the hood, bumper, headlights and lower side plastic. exactly the parts that are likely to need replacement from an animal collision or SWIFT attempting to park beside you.

[@rikardandersson7288]

@@Freightlinerbob yes those parts will more than likely be priced rather high, but I was more reffering to the rest of the truck. Like chassis, axles and drivetrain, that sort of stuff but I totally get your point

[@hudsondonnell444]

It is just Brainshaker Crashcadia with a pretty wrapper on it.

[@Highrollinhunter]

I agree every cascadia is always in a accident it's like the mustang of trucks it's a meme because of swift plus its a ugly truck anyways.

[@ConductorDon]

You know guys, it's weird, but I feel like I've seen this truck before, and I've been seeing it for years. It's like there's a manufactuer out there that already makes this truck. Can't put my finger on it right now, but for some weird reason too, I think they should have called this truck "Cascadia" instead of 57X? Help me out here guys!

[@sergiotrucker3011]

It is a cascadia, dimler is eather too lazy to design a new western star or trying to save money, so they just snap a different hood on cascadia and call it a western star

[@ConductorDon]

@@sergiotrucker3011 yeah I agree. My comment was purely sarcasm. I think it's a combination of laziness and wanting to build something fast and cheap without putting in the effort to make a truck that is completely unique to the brand. The digital dash and infotainment system looks slick, but you can get the exact same setup on the new Cascadia. Western Star is supposed to be the more expensive but better quality brand. It appears unfortunately, they're determined to make it just as cheap and expendable as Freightliner. That's why I don't like them. They're built with large companies in mind that are only going to keep them for 4 to 6 years anyway. In my few years experience, kenworths and peterbilts just felt considerably higher quality to me and it seems they are more driver focused when it comes to how they build their trucks.

[@theawesome48fanhunter]

Do you just sell the cockpit and not the chassie lol

[@georgecass8529]

I would rather have a Cummins . And I'm not sold on those door mirrors . They block your view at intersections . I like how kenworth and Peterbuilt engineer their door mirrors .

dashboard from mercedes

[@Schlipperschlopper]

Sadly soon all combustion cars including classics will be banned from public streets in entire EU and Scandinavia :-( In Germany the Green Peoples Party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025 on by reducing all conventional fuel stations to only one state operated central gas station per city or county. Now they want to slow down all the gas station pumps from 20 litre per minute to 2 litre per minute...From 2027 on in the EU certain car spare parts will be banned too....as exhaust systems, turbo chargers and even some engine and gearbox oils...California and New York will do the same from 2027 on.... So no investments should be done in oil burning cars any longer....They even created a new kind of crime here, called emissions and smoke crime.!!!!!!!!
