The Legacy Edition
Since 1963, the W900 has been an award-winning, iconic piece of American trucking history. While the Kenworth W900 is no longer in production, it pays homage to all the W900s and their drivers that came before. Although Kenworth may have built the truck, drivers built the legacy.
The Kenworth W900 was one of the most customizable trucks on the market. Kenworth introduced the sleeper cab in the 1970s. Then, the rectangular headlights and the addition of the W900S model came in the 1980s. It was available in several different sleeper options, including the 86-inch Studio AeroCab, as well as a day cab configuration. These W900 sleepers ranked among the most spacious and comfortable on the market. And with dozens of interior options available, drivers could completely customize any Kenworth W900 to match their exact needs and preferences — inside and out.
