The Bravado Future Shock Sasquatch is a custom monster truck featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Arena War update.
Design[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The vehicle assumes the same design as the Apocalypse, but has a cleaner bodywork and various details around. The lower front section has an interlinked barrier partially replacing the front grille and the headlights have a futuristic look, similar to the Future Shock Deathbike, while the hood has linear details passing through it. The fenders and the surroundings of the windows also have linear details, while the original dual exhaust stacks have been replaced with quad exhaust stacks, acquiring a trumpet-like design as well.
The primary color of the vehicle is applied on the bodywork, the stitches of the steering wheel, the center of the wheels and the ring-like details on the inner sections of the tires, while the secondary one is applied on the tube-frame chassis, the roll bars, the details around the body, the exhaust stacks, the driveshaft loops, the surroundings of the center of the wheel and the support frames. An accent color is also available for the surroundings of the headlights, the details beside the hood compartment, the details of the center of the wheels and the detail passing around the tires. The wheels have a low-profile design with a rugged pattern and connected to the center by four curved frames, giving the impression of airless tires. When switching to custom rims, it is revealed that the wheel color is set to yellow upon conversion.
The vehicle can be equipped with two side-mounted grenade launchers on the hood, appearing to use the receiver of a Browning M2HB machine gun, but altered with larger barrels.

Performance[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
- Vehicle
The Sasquatch performs very similar to the Liberator and Marshall, but has a higher top speed and better acceleration, taking only a few seconds to reach 60 miles per hour. Braking is also very good for a vehicle of this size, only taking a few seconds to come to a complete stop. However, the relatively light mass makes it unable to push other vehicles out of the way without slowing down like the Bruiser and the Cerberus, and attempting to run over smaller vehicles at higher speeds will often launch itself up in the air and topple over haphazardly and juggle around, which can make recovery a challenge. Installing a ram weapon may reduce chances of rollovers, but may affect the way it handles bumpy roads and obstacles on the front.
In Arena War modes, the Sasquatch can be an easy target due to its large size, and the slow speed and handling may render it easily outmaneuvered by vehicles like the ZR380 and the Deathbike. However, it can be a serious threat due to its large wheels; any smaller vehicle stuck between the two wheels of a side may be either instantly destroyed or severely damaged, being an ideal choice for modes such as Carnage or Tag Team, but caution should be taken for any drone, RC Bandito or guided missile used by spectators.
Like the Liberator and the Marshall, the Sasquatch uses a high-power V8 engine, coupled to a 3-speed gearbox in a mid-engine, all wheel drive layout. It also shares the same loud engine sound from the aforementioned monster trucks.
- Abilities
- The vehicle can be installed with both "Jump" mods and "Shunt" mods. The Jump modifications come in three levels of effectiveness and can be activated using the horn button. When activated, the vehicle will be launched into the air, in a similar way to the Ruiner 2000 and Scramjet. The Shunt modifications allow the vehicle to shunt to the side.
- The vehicle can be installed with Boost upgrades. This can be used to significantly speed up the vehicle. It can be used repeatedly while driving the vehicle, but it is better to let it fully recharge for maximum efficiency.
- Armor
Like other Arena vehicles, it can withstand a single explosive without being destroyed. However, the cabin leaves no protection for the occupants and the engine is partially exposed on the rear, rendering them vulnerable to gunfire. This issue can be mitigated with the addition of armor upgrades, as it installs a grilled defense for the windows and large metal plates behind the cabin and over the engine bay. The side windows, however, leave no protection at all.
- Weaponry
- The vehicle can be fitted with a Ram Weapon, which can be of different types;
- The Light Ram and the scoops behave in a similar way to the updated scoops and ramming bars of the RCV and Armored Boxville, causing a large amount of damage to other vehicles and often sending them flying into mid-air with little to no disadvantage against the vehicle itself, and no damage to the vehicle's engine whatsoever. It should be noted that the effectiveness against other players is significantly reduced compared to its effectiveness against NPCs and their vehicles.
- The Shocker is similar to the ram weapons, but has increased effectiveness over players and NPCs, pushing them a few meters away with a shocking effect on them, similar to a Stun Gun.
- The Love Fist can be comparable to a battering ram rather than a plower; it has decreased capabilities to push cars away but makes up for its strong capability to hit vehicles. Any vehicle can get pushed away with ease and may have a severe deformation on its bodywork, increasing chances of having its steering capabilities reduced or even losing its wheels. This can be a useful choice against basic vehicles, but not that much against vehicles with strong bodywork, like the Insurgent and the APC.
- Kinetic Grenade: The Sasquatch can be modified to have two front-facing kinetic grenade launchers. The weapons behave similarly to other mounted grenade launchers from vehicles like the Dune FAV and the Barrage, but fire kinetic rounds that deal little damage, though they can send players and vehicles away with considerable force.
- The vehicle has the option for installing Proximity Mines. Unlike Weaponized Vehicles added in the Gunrunning update, the Sasquatch, along with all Arena Cars in the Arena War update, has five different Proximity Mine choices: Kinetic, Spike, EMP, Slick and Sticky;
- The Kinetic option (orange flashing light) creates a small impulse spreading several meters around the area, sending players and vehicles into the air. The impulse deals little damage to both players and vehicles.
- The Spike option (dark blue flashing light) bursts the tires of vehicles passing over or near it, as well as dealing a small amount of damage to the vehicle, mainly effecting the vehicle's windows, but otherwise dealing no damage or force. The mine does not burst vehicles with Bulletproof Tires installed.
- The EMP option (light blue flashing light) disables the vehicle's electronics when passing over it. The accelerator, brakes and steering, as well as the radio and other features are disabled for around 5 seconds before reactivating. It also deals a small amount of damage to players. The player will be notified by whom their vehicle was disabled by in a small notification above the radar.
- The Slick option (green flashing light) bursts a large amount of oil on the surface, causing vehicles passing over it to lose control. This deals no damage to both vehicles or players.
- The Sticky option (purple flashing light) bursts a large amount of sticky substance on the surface, causing vehicles passing over it to slow down. This deals no damage to both vehicles or players.
