@@bigness8006 I did! It was the first thing I did when I logged on today!

You used to be able to load vehicles into other vehicles. The engine would shit itself, the bed, and your bed the moment the transport vehicle started moving. The workaround has been to make interior cells for transport vehicles.
After years and years of the community wanting the tow truck, Rockstar adds a Tow Truck that can't tow. This vehicle is Rockstar's literal middle finger to the community.

When are we going to get utility vehicles, like the tow truck or the forklift, in GTA online? Come on Rockstar you put an unrealistic flying bike in the game but you can't put a few utility vehicles that actually work?
They did use to have tow trucks that you could glitch into online, except they were completely broken because if you went near other players with a car hooked up, it would crash their whole console because it couldn't render the hook or something(this was before pc-like 2014 ish) Not saying they can't fix it, but it does explain why it doesn't actually work
Everyone: we want a vehicle that can have other vehicles on the truck Rockstar: we will release such a vehicle. Also rockstar: you cant have vehicles on it
Imagine that, one of the most fun and interesting vehicles to be added to GTAO in literal years, and it's not a supercar, it doesn't fly, and it doesn't shoot missiles.
Me: "Oh that looks cool, I wonder if I could use that as a ramp?" 10 min later: "Me and the boys standing on the back killing everyone with rpg's and miniguns"
Makes me remember about that one truck in GTA: SA that I always use as a ramp. The truck looks like that car carrier. Always use it to breach into an airport while in the early game. Good times
When rockstar releases something it reminds me of that one birthday party mr krabs threw for pearl at the Krusty Krab with that cardboard cake that had frosting on it.
Considering they finally added the rapple tool to helicopters, maybe we might finally see functioning flatbeds and towtrucks soon. Would love to see that one flat bed rust bucket get its love for fast five style action
Maybe to keep the car on the back you just raise the rear hydraulics so the car is constantly going down and hitting the rear of the cab so it doesn’t slide off
It's like the wastelander, but it's easier to get cars onto it so you'll be a little less disappointed when it doesn't do the one thing it was made for
I actually watched very recently the video you did much time ago titled “vehicles which need to return to gta v”, and this one was kind of one of them! Wow! You mentioned in the video: the ramp truck (which is similar to this truck so I guess it counts), the hover car or whatever it’s called from gta iv, the hunter, an older version of the Nokota and another vehicle I don’t remember :)
I was so excited when I saw this, I was assuming at its price tag that you could call it in as a service and still have your personal vehicle up so you can drive your car to meets in style without damaging your car
Probs was suppost to carry cars in the prototype version of the truck but rockstar found it too hard to program so they just made it a mobile stunt ramp.
It may sound useless to many but you can actually tow some smaller vehicle like the Veto classic or the Brioso 300. For the other one it could work in reverse. Just a quick warning: like 2 minutes after I stopped trying towing vehicles my character broke and start moving on spot and I couldn't move
I think we all know why rockstar “forget” to include features like this. Vehicle helps with grinding=more money for the player=less shark cards purchased= Rockstar Sad.
At the same time though. what kind of waste of space is gonna be buying shark cards to get useless vehicles like this. Doubt they've had many shark card purchases recently with the like 2 useful/ fun things from this update... (GTA's BIGGEST UPDATE EVER!) my fukn arse Rockstar..
You can put cars on the back if you put the back of the truck up next to the curb. Not that it can hold cars well, but if you wanted to you have that option.
@@gergoretvari6373 well that's just gta 5 in general. But nothing that directly makes E&E bad. I guess the only disappointing part of E&E would be that people were expecting an announcement for gta 6 or something for next gen consoles but they released gta 5 again. But that doesn't make E&E bad as an independent event. Just the fact that gta 5 is getting released for the 3rd time.
I love this truck it’s good at drifting and you can pick up cars not the best but it’s basically a semi truck you got to give it to it it’s pretty good
For the people that don’t know you have to lower the back of the vehicle with the suspension so the front suspension is high that’s how you put the car inside
Rockstar: You guys are gonna love this new truck it’s a old school tow truck! Community: awesome this will be the first vehicle able to haul cars around!!!! Rockstar: haul cars around?
Guys with the hydraulics you can place a car (activate then lean backward) place the car on the truck, after that you have to lean forward and you'll be able to drive
What about using the ramp for stunts like shown on the picture at Rockstar Newswire? Looking at it, I would think it’s not steep enough, but is that really the case?
I am using it for prep for Casino heist. Where I need to get getaway vehicles from cop impound. I get the cars outside and park one on the back of the truck, raise back hidraulics and drive away. Shame it can't lock the car... I have to break often...
Can you imagine if rockstar added a vehicle that could actually serve the purpose for which it was created, only in our dreams
Sad ramp buggy noises
Literally every vehicle added serves its purpose, transportation
@@birdmonster115 well this one is transportation of cars.And it doesn't serve.

I love how rockstar doesn’t mind adding Missiles to so many vehicles in Gta Online But Cant Make A Vehicle Stay On a Tow Truck 😕
Ikr all they have to do is have a hook on the slamtruck and add both tow trucks to the game
There are actually working tow trucks, but they are single player only.
Because then import/export missions could be done without additional damage to vehicles.

They should add a utility dlc where they not only add working utility vehicles but update the old ones to serve there purpose

Its like rockstar are actively going out of their way to be disappointing
Damn I thought we could turn the back in to a ramp
same, park-able stunt ramp kind of deal. this would have been much better though, IF the tow hook was actually usable.
That's the dumbest thought ever
I always thought this vehicle was meant to be a mobile ramp and nothing else but it somehow really is just a tow truck unable to tow a vehicle
@@user-bf6gz8ej4o it literally never looked like a ramp. How can you jump it if the bed is clearly below the cab?

Exactly
it does not have hydraulics
@@felixs6795 yeah it does he said it in the beginning

It's like the wastelander, but it's easier to get cars onto it so you'll be a little less disappointed when it doesn't do the one thing it was made for
And the wastelander doesn’t try to drift at every turn and replaces free if blown up
rock star will never expect the modders to make this truck work like intended hahaha
Oh my god i thought this vehicle can help me in export import bussines..
idea:since players can ride on it
you can have those heavy ballistics equiped players on top of it
and bascially have just terminators on wheels.
What Pyrerealm tells his wife: 1:55

The slam truck slam dunks into another one of the most pointless vehicles in the game.
"I shall simply force myself onto the back of you"
Me: Wait, that's illegal!
Okay if you didn’t know the truck can go EVEN lower so that a car can easily get on and then raise it or lean forward
I was laughing why to hard on the “force myself on the back of you”... I’m at work 😂
Im not surprised it does not work as intended, people actually thought cockstar would put effort into a vehicle?
What one of the customisations on the back could of been, equipping a some kind of wrecked vehicle to it. (as we can't drive anything onto it)
Bruh im so mad, i thpught it would actually be good cause i was saving up for it just for roleplay. They better make it better
