Things you didn't know about GTAO until now

[DentureDynamite]

^^ lol Something something real life.

The Yosemite is the fastest muscle car. I don't even remember this vehicle existing.

[MaddenedGhost]

I didn't know you can own more than one MK2 oppressor, and yes, my discovery was a result of an expensive mistake.

Apparently it is a very common thing to own many of these to use for rapid redeployment when they get destroyed while griefing.

That's where the huge piles of glitched money comes in handy, I've read.

I can imagine some people owning nothing but oppressors.

I actually thought it wouldn't let me buy one since I already own one but it did.

Oh yeah, you can always buy more, even if it's a Pegasus vehicle!

I accidentally bought the same plane twice one time, forgot I already had it....at least it was on sale both times.

Reason why I thought so was because you need the terrorbyte to mod it up, I figured that's also the only place to store it but I was wrong.

Clown Van suspension sounds is what everyone probably knows already. But today is the first time I noticed it sometimes quacks.

"Trains" are a legitimate vehicle class in this game, if you manage to get inside the freight train that goes around the state, the game with say "Freight Train, Trains" when getting in.

Probably because of the SP mission where you "drive" the train as Trevor.

The Vapid Ellie has a hidden interior trim color option that changes the color of the dashboard, center console and door panels.

So does the Torero. They even taunted us with promotional pictures with a colored interior.

Hey guys, yesterday I've found something interesting while messing around with Menyoo... Interior color can actually be changed under "Benny's lowrider mods" in menyoo, give me some time, and I'll give you pics.

Allright now, I have pics here:





As you can see, changing interior color won't affect the seats, unfortunately.

 

P.S.

Is it only me, or do those Benny rims suit Ellie?

TIL I didn't know everything about Ellie.

Participated at a car meet yesterday.

One guy with an Elegy Retro opened the hood with engine On. The engine was moving like a real one. I´m not talking about the rotary move. I already knew that, but the hole block was shaking. This detail is quite impressive.

Have to check if this is the case also for other vehicles.

Now if they could only animate the pulleys as well it would be amazing, but since they're static I put on a colored cover on them.

There are quite a few vehicles that do that now actually.

had my lampadati toro out from pegasus, then noticed npc trucks that tow boat trailers with toro's on the trailer. any other time i see those trailers they always have a different boat ( can't remember which one)

The easiest to see the shaking engine with working pulleys on is the Fränken Stange. The Tornado Rat Rod engine is fully exposed with working pulleys, but that engine doesn't shake IIRC.

 

There's more with a shaking engine I think, but I cant remember which ones. Working pulleys is on quite a few more vehicles though. I know the Viseris has it, and that's only visible if you install the interior window.

 

Some cars can also feature shaking exhausts or a working fan/turbo impeller.

No car has working intake butterfly valves though right? On the triple option.

[Verstappen]

I don't know. I don't like those so never put them on. Although I've heard someone once say some of the ones on newer vehicles might.

[Gridl0k]

Yosemite didn't, that's pretty new. Oh well, little thing.

 

 

[REXX]

On PS4, if you accelerate, look behind and press the horn at the same time. The buttons conflict and you briefly stop accelerating.

[Snoopbr]

I think Chernobog is the only vehicle that can damage cars and remove their wheels without exploding.

 

 

 

There is a (uncontrollable) Homero Hearse inside LSC La Mesa.

[Verstappen]

^Tanks can do it as well if your lucky.

 

We used to do it on the Armored Kuruma carefully to have an uncontrollable flying car.

You couldn't do all 4 with regular cars though as they would explode after like 1 or 2 tires. Unfortunately they fixed this glitch a long time ago now and I think you now just stay in position instead of doing 360s before you fly off into random directions.

 

Chernobog definitely makes this way easier and less harmful for the vehicles.

It's possible with street cars, just keep smashing into one wheel, eventually it will come off.

This was one of my favorite shenanigans in SP.

It's harder to keep the npcs from driving away online, but doable.

I like the F620 for this since it accelerates fairly well and is low/pointy enough to single out the wheel rather than the fender.

A few new vehicles have them working.

 

Imperator is one of them, I can't remember the others but I know a few has them.

0:12 - I was doing a slow increase in the rev's, but you can still see them opening.

If you have a Yacht with a Helicopter call your Captain and request he delivers your Helicopter and it will vanish from your main Helipad allowing you to use it. As long as your Helicopter is "out" the pad will be empty.

It will respawn on the pad if its destroyed.

The SNS Pistol changes its firing sound when upgraded to Mk II status:

Every car with a blower option from Arena Wars has working butterflies and belts.

 

Vamos

Tulip

Issi

Impaler

Imperator

 

Also a couple of them have working turbos if you install those mods. The Deviant has a unique supercharger but it's a modern style roots blower so no butterflies.
