Brand History
The Western Star Story
Western Star is an American heavy-duty truck manufacturer established in 1967, originally as a division of White Motor Company building trucks for Western logging and resource industries. After periods of Canadian and Australian ownership, it was acquired in 2000 by Daimler and became part of Daimler Trucks North America. The brand is known for rugged vocational and long-haul trucks, often favored in logging, mining, and heavy-haul applications.
