The Gallivanter Baller LE (Armored) is an armored four-door SUV added to Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Executives and Other Criminals Update.
Design[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The SUV is essentially the armored variant of the Baller LE, which features armor padding on the sides and window armoring on the pillars.
Colour distribution is the same as the regular Baller LE and the Baller, where the primary colour is applied to the body and the interior stitching. A trim colour is also available for the interior, being applied to the dashboard, seats and door panels. Its wheels share the same rim design as the "Nevis" off-road rims available in Los Santos Customs, wrapped in high-profile tyres.

Performance[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The armored variant of the Baller LE has a lower acceleration rate, and due to weight increase, has slightly worse handling. However, braking seems to be slightly more responsive. Its traction remains mostly identical, featuring active terrain response and gentle suspension, meaning the ride is comfortable, yet deadly to other road users when used as a ramming vehicle. Despite the ingame website's remark, it actually boasts impressive torque and offroading capabilities, competitive to the likes of the two Sandkings and other similarly-priced renown offroaders in manner of raw engine power and traction, although it suffers from mediocre ground clearance compared to others.
Though the engine model does not feature any manifolds, the engine cover displays what appears to be a single-overhead camshaft V8, fitted in a front engine, all-wheel-drive layout, longitudinally. According to the website, the vehicle is powered by a 530 bhp 5000cc V8 engine, accelerating it from 0 to 60 mph in just 9 seconds, which, considering its weight, is still impressive. Its top speed is stated to be 120 mph, 40 mph slower than the Baller LE. Its engine sound is similar to the one on the Tornado and the Bullet, being slightly higher pitched, smoother, and of higher performance.
The Baller LE (Armored) can take the following:
- 1 Sticky Bomb (where a 2nd will destroy the vehicle)
- 1 Homing Launcher/Rocket Launcher (where a 2nd will destroy the vehicle)
- 1 Grenade (where a 2nd will destroy the vehicle)
- 1 Missile/Tank Shell from a vehicle (Rhino Tank, Hydra, etc.) (where a 2nd will destroy the vehicle)
- 1 Canon shot from a Valkyrie (where a 2nd will destroy the vehicle)
- Approximately 200 rounds of the Minigun.
- Approximately 3 seconds of firing from a mounted minigun (Valkyrie, Turreted Limo, etc.)
It can be noted that the Baller LE (Armored) shares its armored capabilities with the Baller LE LWB (Armored), XLS (Armored), along with both armored Schafters and Cognoscentis.
