Anyone got any experience with a Western Star 4700SB? What are they like? Is the 8.9L ISL over stressed at 400HP? Is it enough truck for a 19m rigid and pig combo for cattle or hay? Seems a bit light duty but beautifully sparse and simple so perfect for a farm truck...

Mmm I agree nice truck. He must be moving some weight with five axles. The stock 400hp and an 18sp I assume? How long's he had it?
