The Kenworth W900B is the third generation of the Kenworth W900, the long-nosed conventional-cab heavy truck built by Kenworth. Truckinginfo says Kenworth rolled out the W900B in 1982, introducing rectangular headlights and a higher hood, and updated the engine bay with more modern cooling and exhaust systems, with the first hint of modular electronic components. English Wikipedia records that the W900 and the K100 cabover were revised in 1982 and 1984, becoming the W900B and the K100E. Since 1982 Kenworth has offered the W900 in three basic models, the base W900B, the severe-duty W900S and the longer-nosed W900L. Truckinginfo reports that Kenworth still builds the W900B alongside the W900L, while the W900S ended production in 2020.
