The Maibatsu Mule Custom is a custom light truck featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the After Hours update.
Design[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The vehicle is a modifiable variant of the Mule, sharing the same profile and layout. The truck is based upon the "heist" variant of the regular Mule introduced in the Heists update, but the grille separations appear to be finished in chrome. It also has side steps and handles on each side of the cargo box, intended for two additional players to hang onto the sides, in a similar manner to vehicles such as the Brickade and the RCV. The vehicle can also be modified with an array of visual modifications, being armor plates, liveries and respray colors.
The vehicle only has access to a primary color for the cabin and the box, and it has the same industrial wheels as the regular Mule.
The vehicle can be equipped with either two front-facing machine guns or two unguided missile launchers, as well as a remote grenade launcher identical to the one from the TM-02 Khanjali.

Performance[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
Vehicle[]
The Mule Custom is, as expected from a large box truck, relatively slow on the throttle and has poor brakes, but, like the original heist Mule and the Pounder Custom, makes up for its ability to ram vehicles out of the way. While not as powerful as the Pounder Custom or better, the Brickade, against other cars, the truck can be upgraded with a front scoop, which slightly increases its ability to part traffic.
Like the regular Mule, the Mule Custom has a 3-litre diesel engine, according to the badges and rear-wheel drive, as indicated in the handling files and in-game. The truck does not include a visible engine model, however. Its sound is somewhat similar to a diesel, high-revving engine with a significantly smooth engine sound, shared with the regular Mule, the Benson and the Stockade. The truck has Four Wheel Rotation System badges, suggesting it uses differential devices or transmission system.
Armor[]
Despite having three different levels of armor upgrades, none of them make the truck any more durable in free roam, as the truck will still explode with only a single explosive near the body, unless the player is in a Sell Goods mission, in which it gains increased resistance and immunity to missile lock-ons. However, the cabin also has bullet-resistant windows similar to vehicles like the Schafter V12 (Armored) and the Baller LE (Armored), giving the occupants slight protection against most firearms before being shattered.
It should be noted that while the Heavy Armor Plating upgrade adds plates that constrict the openings in the windows, they do not offer additional protection at all. In addition, adding any Armor Plating will take away the ability for occupants to use throwable weapons.
Weaponry[]
The Mule Custom can be modified with an array of weapons, separated into primary (driver-operated) and secondary (passenger-operated):
- Machine Gun: the first primary option is a set of two front-facing machine guns, which perform similarly to those from vehicles such as the Blazer Aqua and the Ruiner 2000, albeit with a slightly increased damage (30, compared to the 20 damage from the aforementioned vehicles) and a lower fire rate (1,000 rounds per minute, compared to the 1,200 rounds per minute on the aforementioned vehicles). They have decent firepower against players and vehicles with none or light armor, but will struggle against heavily-armored vehicles.
- Missiles: the second primary option is a set of two front-facing missile launchers, which behave like those of the Weaponized Tampa. The missiles deal the same damage as those from weaponized aircraft, but they have no lock-on capabilities and there is also a limited number of 30 missiles.
- Grenade Launcher: The vehicle can be modified with a secondary remote grenade launcher, which provides greater firepower against armored targets and a greater range of about 150 meters/492 feet, at the cost of having limited fire rate (30 rounds per minute) and ammo (30 rounds). It also has an elevation range of between -20 and 30 degrees, and the rounds will explode half a second after hitting the ground, similar to Pipe Bombs and the grenade launchers available on the Dune FAV, the Barrage and the TM-02 Khanjali.
- The vehicle has the option of installing Proximity Mines, which behave the same as any remote explosive and are operated by the driver. These mines are a bit stronger than their hand-held counterparts and are also limited to five active mines. Caution should be taken when using them, as they can potentially damage or destroy the vehicle.
