Overview
The Flatbed is the rigid lorry that has hauled construction loads since GTA III, and in its GTA V form it took a Freightliner Century nose and a long steel deck. Vehicle trackers catalogued it in An Extended Look, where lorries of this size fill the industrial roads around Vice City Port.
JoBuilt is the Peterbilt and Freightliner badge of the series, and GTA VI already shows its Phantom, Hauler and Rubble.
Trivia
In GTA V the Flatbed could carry cars if you drove them up a ramp carefully enough, an unofficial feature players used for everything from stunt setups to getaway logistics. Rockstar never made it a mechanic. With GTA VI’s heavier physics, a flatbed that actually secures its cargo would be a quiet upgrade.
Real-world basis
Freightliner Century Class 112
The Century Class launched in 1995 as Freightliner’s aerodynamic flagship; the 112 is the short-bonnet version used for vocational trucks rather than long-haul tractors.
