Confirmed vehicles
| Vehicle | What we know | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Reno | A pickup the demo/players use; the patch notes mention four-player seating in the Reno | Steam patch notes, community playthrough |
| Buck T450 Warden | A pickup shown on an official blueprint screenshot; the patch notes mention Warden backlights | Official store screenshot, patch notes |
| Starting car | A beaten-up pickup in the garage; the model can vary with the run | Demo store page |
We have no official horsepower, fuel-consumption, durability or top-speed numbers for either vehicle. If a site gives you a precise stat table, treat it as datamined or invented until the developers publish it.
What actually matters in the demo
The car is a system, not a stat block:
- Radiator and oil — an engine without a radiator overheats; oil keeps it alive.
- Battery — starts the car and runs the heater.
- Tires — winter tires for snow and ice; summer tires lose grip.
- Doors and steering wheel — a car without them is not a car.
- Weight — a full bed and trailer burn more fuel and handle worse.
- Damage — the demo simulates chassis and part deformation; a bad crash can break parts.
The Warden blueprint
The official store screenshot shows a BUCK T450 WARDEN blueprint with a cutaway of the engine bay, cab and bed. It is a marketing/technical drawing, not a stat sheet: it shows where the engine, radiator, battery and seats are, not how much power or fuel the truck has. Use it to understand the layout, not to compare models.
How to get a better car
- Repair the one you have. The demo’s starting car can be rebuilt with parts from the garage and wrecks.
- Salvage wrecks. Abandoned cars are parts donors; take the battery, radiator, tires and doors if they are better than yours.
- Check POIs. Gas stations and cabins can have spare parts.
- Wait for Early Access. The developers say more vehicles are coming; the demo is a small slice.
Co-op vehicle tips
- Four players in one car is intended, but the demo had a seating bug; check the current patch.
- One driver, one navigator, one repairer, one cargo handler is the cleanest split.
- Do not all ride in the same car on a long trip if you have a second vehicle; a spare car is a spare parts supply.
- The driver should keep a repair kit in the cab, not in the trailer.
