Really all the trucks in the poll should be in the game in a few years. ;)

This is only my opinion but the urgency for me to get the 5700 in is because I don’t want the one with the freightliner dash, if I was happy with it I’d just buy the bread and butter Cascadia and be done with it.

The 49x is an ok truck but the 5th wheel is about 400 miles from where it should be for the cargo available in game, and the dash isn’t great either because it’s a new FL inspired one again.

I like rare trucks, the 5700 is not a common truck on the roads so driving it around in game would be cool, helped that I think it looks amazing. The 49x is only rare because it’s new.

I was hoping we’d get it, people mention the old school dash has no place for a nav, but the accessories dlc has sorted that out. If it does come with the fl interior I’ll drive it once and then get rid.

What I've found to be interesting is there doesn't seem to be a truly concrete source outright stating that Western Star is going to have the Western Star 5700 use the Cascadia cabin. After all, with it being just over three more months till the end of 2021, you'd think Western Star would start rolling out some information or sites would report this so called rumor. I'm beginning to wonder if this concern is about as valid as the claims that the Western Star 49X is replacing the Western Star 4900. Plus, the 49X is a brand new truck and the Western Star 5700 has been in production since 2015. Just because Western Star opted to have the 49X use the Cascadia cabin, as for why this was done, I don't believe we have the answer, doesn't mean they'd be willing to change one of their older models so radically. Sorry for going off topic, I've just found this concern to be... Interesting? I can't describe it other than I feel like it is highly likely to be a rumor and just that. (Granted, I know we can't share any sort of leaked information via the forums as to protect SCS' relations with the companies, so I totally understand if that is simply why I've found no supporting evidence.)

With Volvo VNL's 25th Anniversary it would be epic the simultaneous release of Volvo Machines and New VNL this year. :)

But you never know, because FH's 25th anniversary didn't affect ETS2. But if New FH would come too with New VNL and Volvo Machines DLC ... it would be Super Epic. :D

Mack Pinnacle is nice, but it has a bug in chassis. :lol: ;)

It wouldn't be a true American truck without all the chrome :mrgreen:

I voted for:

- HX
- Pinnacle
- VNL

Why those 3?

The HX and the Pinnacle are half done, because both share interior with the other models of the brands that are already in the game.
Also, SCS has a very good relationship with International and, quoting Oscar, "is easy to work with them". So I think the HX is a solid candidate to appear in the near future. I don't remember if they said anything about working with Mack, but it seems the same since all the instagram Post about the Mack Museum they shared on the release of the Anthem.

The VNL... I explained already a couple of pages back :lol:.

Annnnnnnnd I think the 5700XE is another one close in the pipeline. But, since the interiors of the HX and Pinnacle are done, it's easier, faster and cheaper (in the work required) to release compared to one done from scratch. Plus, adding 2 HH trucks is a nice catch.

Mean just look at this bad boy it's just waiting to be in ATS not another Aero truck :roll: lol

Pitty about the Pinnacle that it's doesn't have the Rawhide sleeper anymore looks much better then the current one.

Old Western Star truck models(ex: 4900, 5700) don't have a one-piece windshield option?

The two-piece windshield seems to interfere with vision.

I would like to see either the 122sd or the ws 4900,I'm just bored of this aero truck thing. Also hope if the ws 5700 is to come it comes with the old school style dash, the truck is unique and not ugly tbh for me its one off the less ugly aero trucks.
