Not to be confused with Lost Slamvan, a variant of the Slamvan also named "Slamvan" pre-GTA Online.

"Favorite 50's pickup of San Andreas Lowriders and Liberty City bikers. Smooth lines, chrome details, and shiny paintwork have made the Vapid Slamvan the toy of choice for idiots who won't grow up everywhere." ―Southern San Andreas Super Autos description.

The Slamvan is a pickup truck featured in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Festive Surprise update. It is manufactured by Vapid in the HD Universe.

Design

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

The Slamvan resembles a heavily customized second generation Chevrolet GMC C/K with a chopped roof and custom suspension, while the front of the vehicle is similar to the Dodge Sidewinder (with the exception of the headlights).

Naturally, it is a two door and can only seat two people. Sometimes the Slamvan will spawn with a custom chain steering wheel.

In the beta version, the Slamvan had a different wheel design and paint job not seen in the final version.

Grand Theft Auto V

"The quintessential 50's flatbed." ―Arena War description.

The Slamvan resembles a Rat Rodded 1953–1956 Ford F-Series Pickup with some cues from the Chevrolet Advance Design . It appears that the top half of the cab is from a 67-72 Ford F Series . The vehicle appears as a 2-door pickup with a wooden bed floor in a step side bed.

The vehicle shares the same design as its older iteration (now present with a different name), but features an open truck bed and the rear end has the same bumper and tail lights as the Towtruck (another vehicle that shares many similarities in terms of design), only cleaner in appearance.

It can be upgraded to its custom variant or any of the three variants (Apocalypse, Future Shock, and Nightmare) Slamvan from Arena War.

Performance

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

The Slamvan is quite nimble and comfortable to drive due to its supercharged V8 and upgraded suspension. It possesses good acceleration and average top speed. Its brakes are also strong, being capable of quickly stopping from top speed to zero; its downsides however, is the arguably poor durability and stability, and despite its low height, it can still rollover easily.

Grand Theft Auto V

The Slamvan has a customized V8 with 4 double-barrel carburetors, which sounds similar to the Duke O'Death, The Liberator, and Marshall. In-game stat bars and testing has shown it has the same performance as the Rat-Loader and its clean variant, the Rat-Truck. Thus, it has average acceleration and top speed, matched with very poor brakes and traction. The Lost Slamvan features similar engine as the pick-up variant but has an improved acceleration. Traction is also enhanced and braking is strengthened.
