As the second most viewed video game trailer of all time, just behind Subway Surfers, the GTA 6 trailer has almost reached 176 million hits on YouTube. With seemingly no new information on the horizon about the game, aside from a surprise announcement tweet from Rockstar Games themselves, we have to focus on more pressing things, like the neverending expansion of GTA Online.
Grand Theft Auto started the Lunar New Year of the Dragon last week with a bunch of gifts and opportunities. They gave away the new Regal Dragon Mask and Midnight Dragon Mask with a chance to get even more bling like the Wooden Dragon Mask, Red Lunar New Year Dress, and Black Lunar New Year Tee. On top of everything, they rewarded players who logged in between February 8-14 with a Red Envelope bursting with GTA$188,888.

Now, the studio is focusing the spotlight on the Gallivanter Baller ST-D, designed after the real-life fifth-generation Range Rover (L460). The "SD-T" part is fully intended in the spirit of Rockstar Games. The supercharged SUV should cost around $1,715,000, and you can get one from the Legendary Motorsport website.

Its real-life counterpart comes in more engine variations than I can count. First, the P530 gasoline engine with a 4.4-liter V8 can output 523 hp or 530 ps. Then, the three 3.0-liter diesel mild hybrids, D250, D300, and D350, can output 246, 297, and 346 horsepower, respectively. Lastly, two mild hybrid engines, P360 and P400, can deliver 355 and 395 horsepower, respectively.

Those who like relaxing at the workplace can try the Taxi Work missions that yield five times as much GTA$ all week long. You need to pick up your own Taxi Service for this to work. Luckily, it's now at a 30% discount at Warstock Cache & Carry.

Also, if you stop by Simeon Yetarian's Premium Deluxe Motorsport showroom this week, you can check out the Declasse Lifeguard (Emergency), Ocelot Locust (Sports), Western Bagger (Motorcycle), BF Raptor (Sports, 30% off), and Declasse Vamos (Muscle, 30% off).

As always, GTA+ members get free stuff, like the Ocelot Jugular made after the Jaguar XE SV Project 8, equipped with Jaguar Land Rover's 5.0-liter supercharged V8 that produced 592 hp or 600 ps. It's quite impressive in the top speed department, capable of hitting 200 mph or 322 kph. It can also go from 0-60 mph in 3.3 seconds or reach 62 mph or 100 kph in 3.4 seconds.

As for what's in store for next week in the undying and ever-expanding Grand Theft Auto Online universe, the devs teased the $1,280,000 Declasse Impaler SZ. This muscle car is modeled after the 1994-1996 Chevrolet Impala SS. The word on the street is that it can go as fast or slow as 89.48 mph or 144 kph.

Oh, and for those of you getting tired of this game, you might want to take a look at Helldivers 2. It's currently topping the charts on Steam and for a good reason: it's a fantastic 3rd-person online co-op shooter

Codrin just loves American classics, from the 1940s and ‘50s, all the way to the muscle cars of the '60s and '70s. In his perfect world, we'll still see Hudsons and Road Runners roaming the streets for years to come (even in EV form, if that's what it takes to keep the aesthetic alive).
