The Yosemite is a two-door pickup truck appearing in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and returning in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of The Doomsday Heist update. It is manufactured by Declasse in the HD Universe.
Influence[]
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas[]
In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the Yosemite vehicle is designed after the 1988–1994 GMC Sierra full-size pickup, incorporating elements from the eighth generation Ford F-Series.
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
In Grand Theft Auto Online, the Yosemite has been reimagined as a medium-sized pickup truck inspired by the 1967–1972 second-generation Chevrolet C-Series, mainly seen in the RWD configuration and a longer wheelbase, featuring the bed and tail lights borrowed from the fifth generation Ford F-Series. The cross-shaped grille could be influenced by either the 1967–1971 GMC Sierra or the 1986–1993 first generation Dodge Ram, while the headlights may also be reminiscent of the 1981–1985 Rams or the 1979 Chevrolet C/K. The chrome trim encircling the truck may also be derived from the first generation of Ram.
Design[]
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas[]
The Yosemite is evidently a full-size pickup truck larger in size than the Bobcat. The vehicle is only capable of seating two. In the PS2 and mobile versions of the game, the Yosemite has a twin-rear axle tire configuration, while only a single axle configuration is present in the PC, Xbox, and the Definitive Edition versions. Its two-tone color schemes seem inspired by most early 1980s-style pickups, consisting of wide side stripes as a primary color and the lower and upper sides being colored by the secondary color. The Yosemite cannot be modified.
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The Yosemite takes on a simplistic design, featuring chrome bumpers, rearview mirrors, and trims found on the sides and around the windows, as well as a windshield banner. Its front end is quite similar to that of the Towtruck, but with turning signals. The rear end has rectangle tail lights and a tailgate with "DECLASSE" embossed in chrome, surrounded by a rectangle. The truck bed has black panels. The truck only seats two, as did the previous version of the Yosemite. Due to its stanced nature, the Yosemite is treated like a muscle car, likely because of the modifications it can have, similar to vehicles like the Rat-Truck and the Slamvan Custom (along with its original variant).
In-game, the car has a suspension that resembles air-ride suspension. When at a standstill, the truck automatically lowers to the preferred suspension added in the Mod Garages. When in motion, the suspension lifts up to provide a smooth ride without having to worry about being too low to the ground.
The Yosemite is painted in a primary color for most of its bodywork, the lower side is painted in a secondary color, and its interior is also paintable. It shares the same wheel design as the armored vehicles (Schafter V12 (Armored), Baller LE (Armored), etc.), being similar to the "Drag SPL" muscle rims available in Los Santos Customs, albeit fitted with custom tires.
Performance[]
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas[]
The Yosemite is powered by a longitudinally-mounted V6 engine with a two-barrel carburetor.
Based on the vehicle's internal statistics, the Yosemite possess superior qualities over most other pickup trucks (second only to the Picador in terms of performance), with good speed, acceleration, and handling; these attributes were also tested by Rockstar to ascertain the vehicle's performance.
In practice, however, the Yosemite is revealed to be one of the heaviest pickup trucks in the game, resulting in severe understeer, less responsive brakes and sluggish acceleration, but still manages to achieve above average top speeds at straightaways. The truck may be useful for off-roading due to its high ground clearance, but its stiff suspension may also prove to be a problem when traversing rough terrain. Even worse is the RWD configuration which is rubbish when in sand terrain.

Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The Yosemite is essentially a sleeper, in that it has unexpectedly good performance under an otherwise utilitarian shell. The Yosemite features an excellent acceleration compared to other vehicles in the Muscle class, in part due to its high traction off-the-line while also boosted by its high engine power. This makes the Yosemite a viable option in Muscle car races due to its comparatively high traction-to-speed ratio compared to the Pißwasser Dominator and Sabre Turbo Custom. However, due to its slammed suspension, curbs and other obstacles should be avoided, especially due to the air-ride suspension that can beach the Yosemite on even small objects. This mechanic was changed in the Arena War update, as the truck raises with the handbrake button held.
The Yosemite is powered by a single-cam V8 engine with carburetors, powering the rear wheels through a 5-speed gearbox. The Yosemite seems to belch out more exhaust fumes while idling than most cars.
Its traction can be slightly increased with any "Spoiler" modification. This also applies to the bedcaps, despite not being technically spoilers.

Locations[]
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas[]
- The Yosemite can be found almost anywhere in San Andreas.

- Commonly found driven in Downtown San Fierro and Juniper Hollow.
- Sometimes found driven on the Old Venturas Strip.
- Spawns more often when the beach theme cheat is activated.
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
- Can be purchased for $485,000 from Southern San Andreas Super Autos and Benny's Original Motor Works.
Prominent Appearances in Gameplay[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
- Used by attacking enemies in the Glass Heroes Survival.

Oversights[]
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas[]
- On the original PS2 and mobile version of the game, the Yosemite had double rear wheels (commonly known as a "dually" configuration). However, despite this, when the player skids or does burnouts with the vehicle, it only leaves single skid marks. Also, the rear wheel hubs do not have enough room for the inner tires, making these pass through the car's underside.
- In subsequent releases of the game on PC, Xbox, and the Definitive Edition versions, the Yosemite has been modified so that it only has single rear wheels.
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
- The vehicle's Social Club listing contains a couple of errors:
- Benny's Original Motor Works is missing from the list of dealerships.
- The vehicle is incorrectly marked as not "super-moddable", despite the fact that it can be converted into a Yosemite Rancher.
Radio Stations[]
- In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the Yosemite plays K-DST.
- In Grand Theft Auto Online, the default radio stations are grouped by genre. The Yosemite uses the "Rap" group which can play:
- West Coast Classics
- Radio Los Santos
- The Lab
- Blonded Los Santos 97.8 FM (May not play due to a three station limit within the group)
- IFruit Radio (May not play due to a three station limit within the group)

Trivia[]
General[]
- The truck is presumably named after the Yosemite National Park in California, located in the Sierra Nevada mountain range; a nod to its initial basis on the GMC Sierra.
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
- The Yosemite can be modified to have both bumpers removed, which can deem it illegal for road use.
- Just like the Neon, the Yosemite can be heard advertised on Blonded Los Santos 97.8 FM.
- With the correct modifications, one can resemble Brandy and Rob Phillips' custom C10R, as well as Bob Bertelsen's custom C10, dubbed "Orange Rush".
- The "Sleeper Bed Cap" modification resembles that of the Sean "Farmtruck" Whitley's C10 Long Bed bed cap.
