Cheval Picador Appreciation Thread


Viper9502

Recommended Posts

I hardly ever see other players driving them at any time after the launch of GTA: O let alone sitting in other players garages. This was my premier vehicle of choice at the launch of GTA: O.

I used to have one for a while but just wish there were more customisation options for it.

 

Yours looks very cool BTW.

It's a shame their speed isn't that good, would be awesome seeing these compete in muscle races.

 

One definite thing you should know, the stock rims look impressively good on it. They look like blades, it's how I customized mine one time. You should give them a try.

Thought the offroad wheels looked out-of-place, so swapped them for muscle wheels that look even similar.

I meant the actual actual stock rims like these:

This picture is dirty but they're pretty shiny. Can't go online to post a better picture I'm afraid.

IGCD image links don't work mate.

I agree that the stock wheels look nice, but they look nothing like what's on Ryder's Picador.

I had one too, but got rid ages ago as it was too slow.

 

Very handy for ferrying your bmx or scorcher around from A to B

Cool!

Nice Picador/Elco.

Did you know its AWD?

Never would've guessed considering the vehicle it is based off of along with R*'s categorization of the vehicle though I wouldn't be surprised. It would give a probable explanation for its tendency to understeer when being pushed to the limits.

Their speed may not be the best but I drove them and collected it for looks and the great sound. It has a nice rumble to it that my maxed out Phoenix just doesn't have (No opinion on other muscle cars since it's been so long)...I'll consider the stock wheels next time I log some hours in. I am just partial to American Racing IRL and wanted to show off the green on green paint job. :p

Was just about to create a thread for this. Glad i searched first.

 

I held one for a friend a bit ago while he sold a vehicle to make room for it in his garage. I decided to get one as well, as ive wanted one in the past, but never got one.

 

Just found mine the other day.

Its a shame there isnt more options for it at LSC. You cant even lower it or change the exhaust. I really hope R* adds more mods for it.

I had one at the start of online but got bored very easily. If it had more mods I'd make room for one. Handles like sh*t though.

Agreed like the Rancher XL and the Phoenix I found them to have quite a low spawn rate for both my characters. It's a nice change of pace from other vehicles you see on the street or in others garages. As for the mods I am in the same boat although, I like the Picador/ El Camino's design enough to keep it regardless of this shortcoming. :pp

I like mine but I don't understand why its so limited for tuning options.

 

I think it will probably make way for a rat loader when we can store them again.

Kept the picador and junked my bifta instead so I could get a rat loader.

Added an orange pearl to the point, looks great now as the light moves over it

You should've picked Bison Brown, it looks bears more resemblance to Ryder's Picador than the current Brown you have.

I had one a while ago, love the way it looks and the handling is pretty good but it was just too slow for me.
