Vapid Guardian Base Price - $375,000 Class - Industrial Drive-train - 4x4 Primarily Based On - 7th Gen Ford F-650 DLC Update - Heists Update Release Date - March 10th, 2015 *Series Playlist:* ruclips.net/p/PLx3oIexD1GjEpVicBGasudqzh4KH5OIuO Welcome back to the series where I customize and review OG, and older DLC Vehicles from late 2015 and older that I was never able to make videos on. The reason I make these videos on these older cars is to provide my opinion on how they currently stack up to newer ones in-game. And ultimately, help you better decide whether or not you should buy them when/if the more expensive ones go on sale. Instagram: instagram.com/digital_car_addict/ Twitter: twitter.com/DigiCarAddict
Correction, it's not based on a Ford at all, anyone who actually pays attention to the real life comparison of GTA vehicle brands and the real ones they replicate, 'Vapid' is literally the GTA V version of GM, so in other words, the Vapid Guardian could only be a replication of either the GMC you showed the picture of or a Chevy 3500-6500, obviously extended cab, diesel
@JohnnymarstonNegsarthur : LMFAO... why am I not surprised that some random schmuck got sore over my very true comment I made A YEAR AGO... if you haven't noticed, Rockstar's vehicle brands aren't an exact copy of each real life counterpart, each of Rockstar's vehicle brands has a mix of different real life vehicles in them, Declasse is supposed to be the GTA V version of Chevrolet, but there's still Declasse vehicles that in real life are Dodge, Ford, ect... and the fact that you replied to a year old comment is really sad and embarrassin' on your part - seriously, grow up
The fun thing about this truck is that you can stay on the back of it and you won't fall when someone's driving it. I used to troll AFK players with the atomizer, then giving them a ride to mount chilliad :D
only time I see it used is in metpro's videos killing mk2s in it when someone is sniping in the bed because u can stand in the bed without falling when driving
I have one myself and I like driving it around, it's so big you can drive over other player's cars and it's intimidating. I painted it red and chrome, it's almost like a semi truck
One of the very few old dlc vehicles i still own. With all the chrome trim and nice gloss paint and the new offroad tyre textures it really looks like an f650. And with all the engine upgrades it goes pretty nice imo!
You should check out the Lampadati Furore GT next, It's an underrated and forgotten sports car. It has no customization unfortunately, but it's beautiful design and exhaust note makes up for that. Bonus Fact: Window tint is also applied to the headlights.
Fun fact: the GMC pickup truck that you referenced in the beginning of the video that the guardian takes some styling cues from is actually the same pickup truck that Ironhide took form as in the transformers trilogy
Ubermacht Zion (and to lesser extent, Zion Cabrio) was probably the longest class king and should have some attention. Still amazes me it was king back from 2013 all the way to 2021. Granted, we only ever had a handful of Coupes but still.
Super underrated truck. One of my favorite cars in the game actually. Also fun fact you can stand on top of it without falling off which makes it super fun to use with friends
Damn I used to drive this daily back in the days but for some reason ended up selling it, propably cause of lack of money or getting bored of itl ol. You just made me fall in love with it again, I have to buy it again
if you look closely, the engine is an inline 3. the model for it does stop before the firewall, and theres only 3 exhausts coming out. I mean I guess it could be sharing multiple cylinders per xhaust pipe but that would mean the cylinders are even smaller.
So I have a funny story to tell with the guardian. One of the Lamar missions involving a tanker trailer the tires of the tanker were all popped and we couldn't get it up hill so I called out my guardian and it was able to push the trailer up and pass the mission.
I personally really love my guardian It's really just that quick and nimble on the streets when you put it in the dirt and slows it down tremendously and the back tires get loose like most cars do
@@A90L.. indeed But it's pretty heavy and there's something in the game I forget what it's called where when you drive on dirt/offroad vehicle is act different black with a lot of trucks to get slower and feel like they sink into the dirt while a lot of sports classics do really well in dirt And also it's all the weight is in the front and center of the truck and the back is very light so it tends to let go of the back tires
@@G200064 do u know if theres even any rwd trucks in the game, i would buy the guardian and put low grips on it but after how my other truck felt on low grips it doesnt really wanna drift
This was one of my first vehicles when I came back to GTA Online (at the time it dropped on PC). I need to buy it again. I did not even realize it is the sole ownable vehicle in the industrial class!
Imani tech Gaurdians would be so much fun. Also despite the gas tanks it's still a top offroader, and I like the gas tanks. Mine is Ford blue with chrome secondary so there's a whole lotta chrome, it's quite good.
I started off with the executive package a few weeks ago when I started to play. Zero experience with GTA at all. I had trouble driving ANYTHING that the package came with, and nothing on the street at the time seemed worth the effort. Then I came across the sand king and the sand king upgraded spawn. I was hooked. These trucks aren’t the fastest thing going, but they drive over most things in your way and will go anywhere. Introduction to drifting a console car? Check. Keep driving after all tires and panels are blown off? Check. Most fun I ever had in this game was driving out of police impound in my 4d sand king with everything blown off of it and sliding into LSC for repairs. Still new to the game…. Still have to get the agency before I can drop money on vehicles that can’t be stolen. But on my list of things to pick up after, the guardian is at the top.
Two tips for you all. It’s the best vehicle for snorkeling underwater in GTA 5 online. And it can be load with mc motorcycles goods if you are doing a sell mission. I bought it for those two reasons. It’s very beautiful with chrome secondary collor. Have fun!!
Idk if you've done this, and it's very lackluster in the customization department, but the Bravado Bison is one I'd like to see your version of. Unfortunately it's just not quite on the ideal TRX level, but it's a decently close good looking Ram truck nonetheless
12:40 You forgot to mention that R* didn’t put any physics on the Guardian. Meaning that players can stand anywhere on it while the guardian is in motion. Also the guardian is capable of driving halfway submerged in water too.
"White plate eyesore" the black and yellow plate is starting to become an eyesore when people just slap it onto everything. But you gotta admit a white plate on a white car is great
Hi DCA, I would like you to take a look at Hijak Ruston or Ocelot Locust, quite underrated cars that can be converted into fine looking track racers. 🔥
Yea, they got to fix the mechanics on that and other older vehicles especially off-road or TRUCK classes. Like Trevers truck, that truck is more then capable of going off-road but performs horribly. It’s stock lift is a good 4.5 inch but can’t flex or climb for SH*T.
Should do the stallion next. Pretty much no customization, just 3 roof options, but still such an underrated car, now being free for returning players.
A slight more information on what's based on. Its mainly based on the ford f-650 super trucks conversion as the f650 doesn't come with a pickup version stock
when customizing it in your auto repair shop, it will scratch on the walls when driving to the modifier platform :D so you can have a scratched car in your garage
I remember when this first came out I was so excited lol. I remember the steering wheel wouldn’t move though back when gta first came out on ps4 not sure if they ever did fix it
When it first came out I had to have it. Took up north, hit the large orange ball with my bat and it landed in the back of the truck. The ball was so heavy the back of the truck dropped down.
Large, is bigger then sand king XL. Though, not as versatile with some options. Not as 4x4 like the Sand King, due to gas tank being in the way. Decent at ramming smaller vehicles. Doesn't stand a chance against super heavyweight like, heavily armored types likes the Insurgents an such. You can go full speed, while being maxed armored, and run into an insurgent, and it'll be like running into a brick wall. It seems big and strong, but feels hollow. Almost as if it's made of tin foil when ramming those said vehicles. I had mines in matte black, maxed out. It doesn't have much of a purpose other then for looks an novelty purposes. It would be nice if they can release the normal truck variation. (Without the bed). Give it different variants. Bull bars, Tow truck, or give it a 5th wheel and make it a tractor trailer hauler, or give it a 6x6 option. Fit it with a mini gun or 50 cal, grenade or missiles maybe. The potential is there. Why stop. Make it obscene like the caracara. 6x6 with .50 cal. Basically, this is a poor man's insurgent. But without the bells an whistles. It's supposed to be some kind of bold statement. But in the gta world, it's nothing more then one big fragile target.
You Should Do The GTA 5 Garage Tour At The End Of The Year, So It's Like A Montage Of All The Cars That You Customized In The Game And You Should Customize The Vapid Contender Next!
It will be nice to see the Lampadati Furore GT in Ur customization(sort of),how U turn that car out!U didn't customized it before,I think because the lack of customization.If U do customize it,I'll be pleased,keep up all the good work!
They should add more simular vehicles to this Perhaps armoured Perhaps based off the jack mack granite pick up Imagine if there was a truck with MOC cab armour and weight and speed Along with more off road stuff And can be used like a normal personal vehicle Perhaps it can be stored in a special place like how the chernobog is stored
You know the MTL and HVY trucks you see on story mode all the time? Like the cherry picker, or the one you save the two guys from when it catches fire. It would be cool to get that truck customizable

The Serrano can be turned into a nice race looking SUV with its modifications, worth taking a look
Hell yeah!
Sameish bodykit as the custom Serrano from GTA 4 ELC?
I put the extensions on the skirts and bumpers then slammed it
@@SkipTheKip same
Now I'm intrigued.. never customized that one.
The fun thing about this truck is that you can stay on the back of it and you won't fall when someone's driving it. I used to troll AFK players with the atomizer, then giving them a ride to mount chilliad :D
An actual decent interior, good exterior styling, minimal customization. Overall a decent truck that I never see driving around.
only time I see it used is in metpro's videos killing mk2s in it when someone is sniping in the bed because u can stand in the bed without falling when driving
My friend has this one, all nice and clean. We use to pursue of trailer in haulage, with someone on the back like the previous comment mentions
I have one myself and I like driving it around, it's so big you can drive over other player's cars and it's intimidating. I painted it red and chrome, it's almost like a semi truck

@@jayybizz_ more like a maserati
@@Anthony3k The front?
@@jayybizz_ yes
Is there anyone on Ps5 that has a Pariah or S95 with low grips that I can buy a replica of at the car meet?
Fun fact: the GMC pickup truck that you referenced in the beginning of the video that the guardian takes some styling cues from is actually the same pickup truck that Ironhide took form as in the transformers trilogy
Yes it is!
That probably the reason why they added the guardian I just wish they gave us an Optimus Prime livery for the Phantom custom
@@PaganCurse98 yeah me too a livery like that would be awesome
Indeed! Super cool big ol truck!
Ubermacht Zion (and to lesser extent, Zion Cabrio) was probably the longest class king and should have some attention. Still amazes me it was king back from 2013 all the way to 2021. Granted, we only ever had a handful of Coupes but still.
Day 76 of asking for the dilettante
Dilettante supremacy 🙏
It's have no a visual customazation
I like the car, I still think the headlights could look better, otherwise it looks pretty decent actually.
Do you count how many days you’ve been asking for something
That's the Prius...right?
Super underrated truck. One of my favorite cars in the game actually. Also fun fact you can stand on top of it without falling off which makes it super fun to use with friends
Cheval picador should be next, no visual customization but a really cool car and awd too
Damn I used to drive this daily back in the days but for some reason ended up selling it, propably cause of lack of money or getting bored of itl ol. You just made me fall in love with it again, I have to buy it again
Honestly the vapid contender or dubsta 6x6 would be amazing to see next, love the vid man keep it up
if you look closely, the engine is an inline 3. the model for it does stop before the firewall, and theres only 3 exhausts coming out.
I mean I guess it could be sharing multiple cylinders per xhaust pipe but that would mean the cylinders are even smaller.

It's really just that quick and nimble on the streets when you put it in the dirt and slows it down tremendously and the back tires get loose like most cars do
is it all wheel drive?
@@A90L.. indeed
But it's pretty heavy and there's something in the game I forget what it's called where when you drive on dirt/offroad vehicle is act different black with a lot of trucks to get slower and feel like they sink into the dirt while a lot of sports classics do really well in dirt
And also it's all the weight is in the front and center of the truck and the back is very light so it tends to let go of the back tires
@@G200064 do u know if theres even any rwd trucks in the game, i would buy the guardian and put low grips on it but after how my other truck felt on low grips it doesnt really wanna drift
8:30 the Duke-O-Death doesn’t have a plate option either, not sure if Rockstar was lazy when it came to these cars but it is very strange
Well there's the ifruit method, sadly you can't change the background colour
Hopefully one day you’ll be able to get to Bobcat XL
The ocelot f620 would be nice
Nice sounding car too
Yes, it was a forgoten car in GTA 5
Wow. I'll watch this when I have the time. I don't play GTA and I only watch, so this big truck came to me as a surprise.
The Bravado Rat-Loader is underrated in my opinion, and would be cool to see get customized.
There's also a secret customization to remove the truck bed.
@@tretimes9883 How to do that?
Fun fact:
You can actually stand on the back of the guardian and no matter how fast it is going you will not ragdoll off perfect for a cop chase
I think it also lets you sit in the back
This was one of my first vehicles when I came back to GTA Online (at the time it dropped on PC).
I need to buy it again. I did not even realize it is the sole ownable vehicle in the industrial class!
I hope eventually, either in gta 5 or 6 someday, they should add the option of increasing suspension height too
Love how surprised you where at the handling lol, think your videos are great, big love from the UK
"This, is 2016 Ford F650"
The Windsor drop would be a cool video :). It’s a 4 door luxury convertible.
Imani tech Gaurdians would be so much fun. Also despite the gas tanks it's still a top offroader, and I like the gas tanks. Mine is Ford blue with chrome secondary so there's a whole lotta chrome, it's quite good.
You should be customizing inside the arena, just in case some of the older vehicles have secret customization's.
It also unlocks the plate option for most vehicles I've noticed, did it for my D-o-d
@@interlaser8686 the more you know✨️
All this time and Rockstar still hasn’t noticed they forgot to make the steering wheel turn and radio screen work in this truck.
Day 3 of asking for the OG Gauntlet to be customized and reviewed
Finally, I wanted you to customize this car for much time now
Imagine having to drive this in gta IV
I was dead thinking about copping this too, goodlooks for the video. Came out right on time!
I started off with the executive package a few weeks ago when I started to play. Zero experience with GTA at all.

Third times the charm you should do the original baller based on the 04 L322 it surprisingly has some customization

Weird, in the PS3 version your character would fall if the truck drives away.
I would like to see next the progen pg1 (mclaren f1)
Did that one when it originally released with commentary 👍
The Karin Beejay XL would be sweet, you could even make it look like the newer Toyota FJ
I spent so many hours trying to unlock chrome just for this truck
I always paint this glossy black and chrome when i buy it. If only it transformed...
What a beauty! I loved this truck, back in the day.
Would love to see the Cognoscenti Cabrio next.
I'd love to see the bravado youga next, has some interesting customization for a street van
Lol i love this truck, it's just so funny to cruise around with this massive truck around the city
Can we do the Chino custom bro? Fun customization but not more than the primo. Still comes out a sick ride.
I remember thus first came out, I bought it right away cause it reminded me of Ironhide

The Vapid Chino is still too gangsta, it seems, but I won't give up. Drop a like if you appreciate that stylish brick!
We are staying in the right size range. We just need to move to vans now, and do the PARADISE VAN, please...
This thing can literally swim underwater
"Vapid Guardian S" A more customizable version of the newer model because when rockstar makes a new variant of a model they add S to the name.
I hope it goes on sale tomorrow lol
when customizing it in your auto repair shop, it will scratch on the walls when driving to the modifier platform :D so you can have a scratched car in your garage
Lol thats funny
Playing with some buddies a while back and took my sandking xl and guardian through the ls car meet test track and they're both rippers 🤣
You should the bison no visuial custamazation but you can make some pretty good builds out of it
It's big, it's brash, it's loud, and it's all beef.
Definitely sounds like an American truck to me.
I remember when this first came out I was so excited lol. I remember the steering wheel wouldn’t move though back when gta first came out on ps4 not sure if they ever did fix it
Cool video also you posted on my birthday nice
Happy b day dude!

One of the few times in which MrCarAddicts uses an off-road wheel. But I guess it makes sense for this one.
Please customize the penumbra ff
I did that one when it originally released
this and the insurgent are my go to “bully npcs” vehicles
Do you have plans to play gta car guesser ? It was very entertaining.
What the hell i got this yday used to have on ps3 love it so fast! Matte black best colour for it!
This truck would look so good if it had double rear wheels.
Basically transformer hidden in gta v , 👀 , that's why it handles really good
Awesome job
I always thought it was more based off the GMC Topkick rather than the F-650
Would be neat to see the Albany Chino Custom getting a little dca touch, from what I see you haven’t touched upon the whip on ur channel
You know what car I really want them to add to gta is the Hennessey venom gt
You should try customising the Fugitive, i know it doesn't have much upgrades but it's worth a try
You Should Do The GTA 5 Garage Tour At The End Of The Year, So It's Like A Montage Of All The Cars That You Customized In The Game And You Should Customize The Vapid Contender Next!
This car is a great idea for TV/Movie build, recreating Ironhide from 3 Transformers movies
I wonder if this truck could fit on the Lucky Wheel podium?
Lmao that would be funny
I really hope in a future update we get some dually trucks like an f350 a ram 3500
The clown horn would be hilarious on this truck
The only reason I bought that thing is because it's a close as you can get to making Ironhide from the transformers movies.
They should update this vehicle
Kinda wished we could get a updated like the more modern f650 with a dually and bigger engine model
It will be nice to see the Lampadati Furore GT in Ur customization(sort of),how U turn that car out!U didn't customized it before,I think because the lack of customization.If U do customize it,I'll be pleased,keep up all the good work!
I'm still mad this bad puppy right here isn't at "Bennys" Donk / lowrider upgrade options!!!
The guardian needs a complete overhaul keep it the way it is but add on to it
This truck feels it's Guardian heavy duty.
Gta really needs a truck update!
Truuuuu!
Since you've done most of the og sports car you should do the Lampadati Furore GT next. No customization but still a beautiful car.
We need a proper Silverado in this game. That and a track hawk/ new bison.
They should add more simular vehicles to this
Perhaps armoured
Perhaps based off the jack mack granite pick up
Imagine if there was a truck with MOC cab armour and weight and speed
Along with more off road stuff
And can be used like a normal personal vehicle
Perhaps it can be stored in a special place like how the chernobog is stored
You know the MTL and HVY trucks you see on story mode all the time? Like the cherry picker, or the one you save the two guys from when it catches fire. It would be cool to get that truck customizable
