do cars need fuel?

Recommended Posts

Ok. I've probably logged over 30 hours in V35 since they came out. I drive for hours and don't refuel. Let me explain some strategy to this forum because it seems like nobody knows this.

 

a) Jerry cans can be carried on your person without taking up inventory spots, I am not going into details on this specifically. Regardless, get a jerry can and drop it off at a gas station if you can't figure out how to hold on to it. When I log back in in a minute, I will have a jerry can waiting for me.

b) Find a vehicle, drive it to the same gas station.

c) Refuel jerry can by holding it in hands and aiming at a fuel pump, then turn around and fill up the truck (passenger side is only side I get the Refuel option).

d) Repeat C 4-5 times.

 

It only takes 4-5 "refuels" to fill the truck, which will run for about 2 hours straight. The animation of refueling the truck doesn't even matter, so you can refuel the truck in under 15 seconds if you are good. 

 

Then it's off to the races. I drive in 3rd person with the hood up, rumor is that the hood will protect you from bullets, not sure about this.

Jup that's what I was doing aswell. Just fill/refill the can a few times and put it into the truck so its full of fuel. Refill it again so you have a few litres on the fly.

I've got the opposite problem. I keep finding these damn canisters everywhere, but never any trucks.

Oh and btw, how are you carrying around that jerry can there, surf? I'm SURE it's in your bag, right? You keep enough space in your bag for that jerry can, yeah? Totally.

You can bug the cannister.
