Remember to turn AWD off whenever it's not needed to save fuel. It might also help with forcing the wheels to turn whenever they lock up. Generally speaking any truck with double tires (so almost all of them) at the back doesn't need AWD except to reduce excessive wheelspin.

Now that you mention it in times when on an incline if wheels lock up it would help to disengage AWD. Paying attention to where weight sits is important. Very good point! Thank you

it's one of the most underrated trucks. Its so cheap and its maximum tyre size is even bigger than that of the Fleetstar. I have many GMCs in Hard Mode and use them as support trucks

It really is. It’s a cheap truck to purchase and upgrade. It’s tires are larger than the brigadier, kodiak, and fleetstar. 47” isn’t massive, but its lift kit helps allot too. Support is a great role for this truck for sure!

Yesterday I used this truck on Black Badger Lake, loaded the trailer with 2 metal ones, a platform with a metal beam and put another one on top with a crane, in total he dragged 4 metal beams through difficult mud, yes, not without the help of a winch, but he managed, if there is a desire, then and at the end of the game you can safely operate it, you can say a good workhorse for the whole game

I agree, I mean even if you have to winch that’s still ok. This truck really is a good hauler when you get AWD. It’s not the strongest, but it gets the job done :)

I think some trucks suffer from having upgrades available too much later in the game. For example, the Kodiak makes a great early game truck. But without the AWD option, it's severely limited. Sure, empty it goes almost anywhere, but it needs to do work. The AWD option for the GMC isn't available until you get into other regions. By then you have better trucks. I'm a hoarder so I keep all my trucks, unless I can't use them until I get upgrades later. Then it s simpler to sell them until all the upgrades are collected or unlocked. But still, considering the Fleetstar gets its AWD option and locker upgrade right away, it kind of makes the GMC and Kodiak useless in early game. And they're far outclassed by better trucks later when you do get the upgrades. The Twinsteer is useless without awd, so I sold mine until I get the awd upgrade. No reason to have it otherwise.

Ya alot of trucks dont upgrade right away which turns players naturally to upgraded trucks. However, I've seen the Twinsteer break contest records without the AWD unit. Its just boils down to what the player is willing to tolerate

Well, that's why before my second go through I visited the XML file of the AWD mod for GMC 9500 and since I own the Kola DLC I simply rewrote the modification to be available without the need of finding the modfication in very late game where you honestly should have forgotten this beautiful truck long time ago... It just makes sence to me since this is a starter truck, you should able to pump maximum out of it at the beggining... and I also moved it to the heavy duty category because in my opinion it just doesn't fit amog the highway trucks especially when you unlock the AWD upgrade...

I just used this truck w/o the AWD and Westin engines to repair all the bridges in Drummond Island. Used all local resources except the concrete blocks which weren't on the map so a very good truck, doesn't pull uphill very well and surprised how well it handled the mud holes. Hey Nathan how about some trailer reviews?

You can use a Tatra T813 to get the AWD module for the MH9500 right at the beginning of the game. Just takes a little patience. Fun Truck to clear Michigan with and I've been using it in Tamyr too. You can also leave the stock suspension on with the 47" tires, gives it a lower center of gravity/more stability.

Max engine plus offroad gearbox, and it was delivering all the log missions for. It also did the "winter stores" mission in one go carrying that trailer and the spare parts through the flooded entryway to the local farm and along the coast of the river only needing to winch twice because of driver error losing too much speed in high gear...all this without the AWD. TL;DR- This truck is very capable, even if you decide to play the game one region at a time.
@NProvince
@NProvince 2 жыл бұрын
Oh the truck is very capable for sure. The 3rd engine actually isn’t the most powerful though, oddly. The 2nd engine option actually has 5,000 more torque rating. I’m not at my computer to give you solid numbers, but I can later when I get back from work. Also you’re referring to early game which of course it is going to do well on even without AWD. From testing this in later parts; indeed it is capable and is a great truck, but it still has had some power struggles and they are backed up by the torque data. Still though it’s a really good workhorse.

@@NProvince No need, that second one was the engine I was referring to by saying "max." I just always feel the need to defend this mean little beast in its home region since so many(not you obviously) just say "no AWD means it sucks." When it is usually a case of them taking it off its home turf, and also many times a lack of driving skill that make it stop dead on its home maps. I may also have a bias as a local tow company uses one of these, and have actual footage from it's pre-towing days of it hauling logs. lol

In my opinion the high range gear box works way better for this truck. I think it's the higher revs and lack of rev cap.
@NProvince
@NProvince Жыл бұрын
The high range does allow for more power outflow to axles. If it works better for you then I would say it’s a good pick, however and increase rev cap means more fuel burn, but it won’t be too big of a deal based on distance traveled but I thought I would just mention that.

i know im 2 years late to this video, but I just came back to the game after a long break. I remembered how useless this truck felt when i played years ago. this time around i saw that it had AWD as a later unlock so i said to hell with it and put some offroad tires on it in decided to keep it until i get the upgrade. I have to say, this thing can really surprise you. I have done some outright stupid things in this truck, and it just sort of keeps on going. For example, i got cocky and got the fleetstar wedged into some really deep mud with water up above the hood. so I went and pulled it out with the GMC. It required way too much time, a ton of fuel, and near constant winch usage. Still though, it saved the day without AWD. Not the Best truck in the game, but Im keeping mine from now on.

Good question. Soo the Westline V6 2420 is 140k torque and has pretty good durability, but the better engine torque is the Si-6V/2100T at 145k torque and it’s a lil better on gas. Only thing it’s not as durable.

use a "upgrade unlock" mod to use this amazing truck to its fullest in the firt easier maps, caue lts be honest no one will ever use this truck at its best cofiguration because until then u will buy the rusian op trucks which are mostly better even stock. i finnished both first maps in michigan completelly with gmc , its amazing and fun fully upgraded and i would have never used this truck without the unlock upgrades mod, which is a shame.
