Template:Next-Gen Template:Infobox vehicles The Karin Technical Custom is a modified variant of the Technical, featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Gunrunning update.
Description
The Technical Custom is originally introduced as a mission-only vehicle that can be driven by the player as a bunker supply. However, as of July 18th, it becomes available for all players.
Design
Grand Theft Auto Online
The Technical Custom is a compact two-door pickup truck which features a very linear design, similar to that of a fourth generation Toyota Hilux.
In-game, it is essentially a Technical, but adds a tow hitch on the back that is connected to a large frame coming from under the truck bed. It also has a non-rusted body with rusted mirrors, wider fenders, and its badge has been moved from its grille to the plate holder. Aside from its standard DShK 50 caliber Machine Gun on the rear bed, the Technical Custom has the option to add a mounted Minigun and armor plating for the chassis.

Performance
Grand Theft Auto Online
The Technical Custom essentially performs the same as the Technical, and is claimed to feature a V8 engine, sharing a V8 model too, which provides an above-average amount of power to all four wheels and is able to keep the vehicle moving without loss of traction.
On road, the Technical Custom has ample acceleration and a reasonable top speed in line with other trucks. It stays flat in the corners for a truck with its size and height, but will have more chances to roll over due to the extra weight in the back of the truck. Its ride, however, is stiff and punishing. The Technical seats only two in its spartan cab, plus a gunner on its modified truck bed. The weight of the gun on the back will increase oversteer in certain situations.
Off-road, the Technical Custom is easily one of the best off-road vehicles in the game. Its high ground clearance, 4-wheel drive and fat off-road tires allow the Technical to negotiate hills and rocks with ease, and it has a a bit higher chance of a rollover than the normal Rebel.
The diesel engine provides ample power, and will easily cause wheel spin when going up steep and slippery hills, but if the driver feathers the throttle, the Technical will make use of all of its grip well and climb hills easily. The Technical can reach relatively high speeds off-road, and landing right from jumps has the suspension taking in all the impact, leaving the body undamaged.
The truck has a short wheelbase, although "beaching" the truck is still a danger the driver must watch, especially when rock climbing with the truck.
- The Technical Custom comes equipped with a Soviet 50 caliber machine gun, which has devastating power against pedestrians and unarmored vehicles, making it a good choice for an escort vehicle. The vehicle is able to kill most NPCs and players in one to two hits and take down most helicopters or vehicles in less than twenty.
- The second option is a mounted 7.62mm Minigun, which behaves like many mounted miniguns found on other vehicles. Although not very powerful, the high fire rate makes it great against unarmored targets and cars.
Because of the tow hitch, the Technical Custom can tow an Anti-Aircraft Trailer, increasing its weight and length, but also increases its firepower (as long as the trailer gunner do not accidentally destroy the vehicles if using the Missile Battery or Flak Cannon options).

- The Technical Custom will appear in a bunker resupply job. This particular version comes with a large defense bullbar and framing over the hood area, as well as a roll cage on the roof. The windows are protected with steel plating covering the uppermost side of the windshield, door and rear windows, leaving small gaps in them. The Technical Custom also carries a mounted Minigun and features custom off-road wheels and xenon lights.
Locations
Grand Theft Auto Online
- Can be converted from a standard Technical in the Mobile Operations Center vehicle workshop, for $142,500. The conversion automatically installs a Tracker on it, able to make this a Personal Vehicle. This method cannot be done in Benny's Original Motor Works or in the Custom Auto Shop from Office Garages unless the truck is already converted.
