- the White Road Xpeditor 2 was launched in 1976. It had a new cab, not a modified cab from the previous Road Xpeditor.

Agree(d) with this. My only doubt was and still is about the Road Xpeditor II / (only) Xpeditor name change. See the linked brochure in my very first post.
[...] Because that one was itself derived from the old White 1500 series truck.
... and from the 6000 Xpeditor. Or was it just it's first sales name, while it still had the 1500 grille?

- the Volvo-White Truck Corporation was launched on August 31, 1981. The White range was revised, got a Volvo diagonal bar, and relaunched in June 1983, including the Xpeditor.

I'd say more likely "Volvo-like" diagonal bar, for the grille: there is only one bar, with no square in the middle
"Relaunched in June 1983" : does that mean no White trucks between mid-1981 and mid-1983?

Was it unveiled as 1986 or as 1987 model? I see regularly this problem in books: the author often "think" civil year, not model year. If only sold as 1987 model year, then it existed only 1 year as White truck.
By the way, Low Entry was the WhiteGMC name. (Volvo)White trucks sold it as WXLL:

1997-2000 Volvo models also used the WXLL model name.

- The difference between the WX-42 and the WX-64 models ? I suppose it's the same as with every other american truck, and refers to the number of axles. 42 means a 4x2 truck, 64 a 6x4.

I discovered that since this 2015 post, indeed. Thanks!
