A Bobcat in GTA III.

The Bobcat is the trusty pick-up truck that is featured in all the GTA III era games as well as Grand Theft Auto IV. In GTA IV the Bobcat's manufacturer is Vapid.

Overview

The Bobcat is fairly fast, with great torque, and has a two person capacity; however, it takes a long time and a straight and long road to get to full speed. It is four-wheel drive and handles well on rough terrain, and so can be used for mild off-roading, but is inferior to the Patriot in this respect. In GTA San Andreas, this car can be upgraded at TransFender with wheels, exhausts, etc. and is available in two tone colors. In GTA San Andreas, the Bobcat runs on a V6 engine. The GTA III rendition resembles a Second generation Chevy S10 or Toyota Tacoma, while the Vice City and San Andreas renditions are based on the first generation Ford Ranger. In GTA: VCS, the Bobcat was used as a gang car by the Trailer Park Mafia.

In Grand Theft Auto IV, the Bobcat is no longer based on a compact pickup truck, it is based on a full-size pickup instead. It resembles a mid '80s' Chevy C truck (the sides aren't very close though) with an extended cab, stepside box, and an insanely powerful 550 CUI (9 litre displacement) V10 engine. Despite having 'super 4 x 4' written on the side, the Bobcat is only a rear wheel drive.
