I 100% agree, but i think the last test was unfair to the WS, you can just throw i inot high and it plaws through everything short of deep mud or water

then again that is also true for the fleetstar

The western star is better than the paystar in game

@@ParimalTube I would like to see a comparison. It would be close

@@johnjones4932 yeah

Yup

Yeah

I will never sell that truck

I hate the Kodak too because of how often the suspension breaks for no reason

Kodiak

Like the fact in the all terrain it didn't take damage. May have been slow but no damage. Seen cat take damage on a few events the western did not.

Western is literally the truck you want for crane and trailer tasks because of how powerful and capable it is

​@@shawnbenton244 in snowrunner, speed doesn't really matter either. What matters the most is whether the truck is moving or not. And W.W.S always moves no matter what. Besides, that thing is wide and flat. Great choice for medium logging which often makes the truck top heavy.

I have tested allmost all of the heavy duty trucks extensively - WWS is overall the most useful because the most offroad capable and stable, but can't crane+bed+trailer - Cat680 has the most powerful engine of this bunch, so for light terrain, heavy / uphill pulling it is the best (HX 520 does the same though and carries a crane-bed-trailer which the Cat680 cannot) - Fleetstar gets outclassed by both of them in every way except for the ability to carry crane+bed+trailer which the WWS cannot - Throw Kodiak off a cliff Not-original-4-trucks that are similar - International HX 520 can carry all the addons in the game, has the same powerful engine as the Cat 680, and can do crane+bed+trailer - Cat681 has an even more powerful engine but even less offroad capability. It's out-680ing the 680. - Brigadier is basically a fleetstar with a slightly more powerful engine, still gets outclassed by WWS+HX520 - Fully upgraded, the GMC9500 is also a better fleetstar but still gets outclassed by the WWS+HX520 combo Basically better than all of the above - Tayga with crane + saddle for dragging semitrailers through mud - Tayga B is hard to get but can do crane+bed+trailer combo at a large cost of agility - Voron Grad is pulls a loaded semitrailer uphill through mud while in highgear with the highrange gearbox - Voron AE does the same thing but with always on difflock at the cost of lower fuel capacity tl;dr: You need the WWS for offroad work and the international HX 520 for the versatility (it has all the addons) / crane-bed-trailer-combo and the pulling power. The fleetstar has no purpose if you have the International HX 520, and the other trucks can be sold or used as a backup for the others. The Kodiak ... is bad.

Well, it lost, sooooooooo clearly it's not lol

are u an idiot

I agree. The CAT is horrible in mud

@@Snas_Undertall The CAT won because of his speed in the multiple races that were done in this test. But snowrunner is an offroad game and in that regard the White western star is the better choice.

But the fleetstar is my friend. It has a lot more character somehow. It seems mire determined to get things done. I got rid of my western star ages ago but I still use the fleetstar specifically for running into foredts to collect materials and bringing them out to a main delivery truck in Canada.

He doesn’t have to put that in the video for you to take it into account

Great with a flatbed and towing hitched trailers, bloody awful for semi work. Does very well considering it’s tyre size.

Its my go to truck for just getting stuff that only costs 1 to 2 load points 😊

Ustedes ven kodiaks en Estados Unidos o no ahí

@@guilleelizondo1883 not anymore, they were around in the '80s-'90s

the cat is more for looks, the rear is so low it could be a lowrider

Fleetstar has a beautiful sound when accelerates.😅

True

That’s why I leave a couple fuel tankers around the map for that exact reason

Remember that the Fleetstar, other than the white, offers the possibility of having loading crane + cart.

I personally find the Fleetstar to be a very dependable workhorse. It's a jack of all trades, master of none, like the Chevy CK1500. There are better options for more specialized tasks, but it is an excellent all rounder from the start of the game to the final missions.

Im not gonna say the best but it is a damn shame they didn't give available lift for the kitty cat 😺🐈, would be a sweet rig

Yeah, love the cat but it isn't good enough, isn't even free, and the all wheel drive is beside the royal bm17 , like why would you need the awd for a highwayish truck when u can get one of the best trucks in game

I agree I love that truck for hauling 1 to 2 load point stuff

Yeah it's got some rigid suspension design, I think it's called "walking beam"

The „cat“ is dogshit

@Ezra Redgwell yea but western star is a pain in the ass to get

@Ezra Redgwell i mean yeah its easy to find but unless you know the map really well its frustrating asf to drag it out of the river

If you are still playing without chasing any of the OP trucks than both the fleetstar & WWS will be your friend for a long time. They are both useful in different ways.

@@ongbak190 the Western Star is excellent for when you need a no frills heavy trailer hauler or a stable truck for carrying materials on very uneven terrain, while the Fleetstar is more suitable to doing multiple longer distance quests as it has a good fuel capacity, and has a better KM/L (MPG but Metric). Both however are eually very, very dependable workhorses even in late game, so ultimately I say that it's down to user preference.

It’s not a heavy duty truck.

The GMC is a highway truck, very little offroad ability

@@reversegiraffe3976 its in highway because it didnt have awd as an option at the start but now its one of the best offroaders

It is not far from the garage, though.

Off road pull 1st place.....hahahahah nice joke

@@floydthedroid5935 play the game and you will understand what she is saying. Ws is the best heavy second is Fs, the other 2 just suck at almost everything.

@@patrikwesslan2067 yeah right. I haven’t put enough days of playing time into this game to make a comment. Erm....play the game? Wtf sweetheart?

@@patrikwesslan2067 I've been useing the cat a ton and it seems fine maybe its cause mine is fully upgraded

Because they have different upgrades and customization.

The truth is that the HD trucks aren't great as a class, they're general-purpose but later on you get much better trucks in the heavy/off-road classes.

As a driver I agree. When I come home from work to game I enjoy the game for what it is. I see cat trucks in real life everyday and talk to the drivers everyone of them hate the truck. They all say the same thing wish it were a freightliner. In the daycab world freightliner is king.

@@shawnbenton244 I actually drive a Freightliner 122sd pulling a lowboy. It's got a 600hp dd16, and an 18 speed. Pulls like a beast if it wakes up on the right side of the bed. 🤣

@new guy rc dang lol. Mine is just a cascadia, dd15 with the dt 12 auto. Did 16 years otr by the end everyone was moving to auto. 3 years now local and the boss is moving to auto. Nice for city driving though.

@@shawnbenton244 I imagine it would be, but I love floating gears. We have some auto dump trucks, and I kinda hate them. Basically seems like you can accelerate full throttle, or not at all because of how rough they shift when you baby them.
