Pumpkin Zone Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) There she is, ladys and germs. So far she's a beauty. I was kinda disheartened since I really really wanted the GTAIV Contender to be added for awhile, but this thing takes slopes like it's nobodies business. It's got some very interesting body curves and lines, and the bullbars headlights actually work! Also something to note the front windshield is bullet proof a la the armored variants of cars (Armored Schafter, XLS, Baller, etc). But only the front windshield, the side doors windows break with one shot just like every other car. Anyway post your Contenders, I'd like to see what you guys are doing. (And you can 'tint' the stock wheels too!)

Frank ツ Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 CAR COST : 250k. looks pretty good , has some good lift , these pics are with the lowest suspension installed. Pumpkin Zone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxxi Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 I really thought I was gonna love this truck, but I am highly disappointed. I mean, in the shots we all saw as PC leaked them, we get the image of a custom Toyota 4-door pickup that looks like it is ready to tame the wild. Instead we get this pussy of a truck with a severe lack of options and the stiffest suspension I've ever seen in a video game. rlk232 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH to me this truck looked pretty basic to me the whole time, not sure what people see that was going to be so great about it. Looks like a mall crawler. dairyworker, Absolut, LoneWarrior515 and 2 others 5 Twitter - Instagram - Youtube - Social Club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pumpkin Zone Posted July 26, 2016 Author Share Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) I too installed the lowest suspension on mine. I wish there were more mods, but I don't agree that it is a 'pussy' of a truck. It's actually really nice to drive! Performance wise it's on par with the Sandking, but I think it handles a little nicer. Can't decide on weather or not I like the bed cap or not, but I'm gonna keep it off for awhile. The roof rack irks me, but in a weird "I kinda like it but I don't" kinda way. Edited July 26, 2016 by Pumpkin Zone GAUNTLET HELLFIRE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gridl0k Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Can you stand in the bed/on that roof platform without falling while driving? Annoying the Brickade wasn't made that way, especially with that shelf on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ik ik, Bravado vs Vapid...truck wars Was thinking about re-buying the Sadler I got rid of long ago, but remembered this was coming out so I waited. I am happy I did so far, it's a great vehicle. The Bison is REALLY nice too though, and can seat 6 people which beats the Contender. I'd say if you can test ride a friends that would be your best bet.

Check out the times in comparison to other SUV's in my thread: http://gtaforums.com/topic/863583-djdests-car-testing/ I really like it, I just wish it had a few more visual mods.

totally_blown Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 I'm not gonna be able to get on for a few days, but does the engine have a diesel sound or does it sound like a gas truck? I will be purchasing regardless, I was just hoping it would be a diesel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizboy Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) Not that bad acceleration for a pickup. I like how versatile it is. You can modify the car to look like some agency (FIB) car, agressive sports car - like real life's Hennessey Velociraptor 650, which looks nearly same imo, except the front lights - or just a simple practical pickup truck!

whywontyoulisten Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Hopefully this works for you? SWB in the middle. How does it compare size-wise to regular trucks like the Bison/Sadler/Bobcat et al.? It looks like another 3/4 scale car alongside the Sandking. Ah well, it'll make the Virgo Classic feel better about itself. HeavyDuke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah well, it'll make the Virgo Classic feel better about itself. And the Liberator/Marshall. Which also are to small scaled. Hell pretty much every car made in the USA in this game is under-scaled except for the sandkings. Small lightweight supercars dwarf supposedly big ass roadboat like classic americans. The size of those old classics is one of the things that made them awesome to begin with. Edited July 26, 2016 by HeavyDuke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We Are Ninja Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Been looking forward to this every since it was leaked. Broughy managed to wring a great time out of it, and cost literally a third of what I expected. I can't wait to get online... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
