The Jobuilt Phantom is a conventional semi-truck in the Grand Theft Auto series. It appears in Grand Theft Auto IV, Grand Theft Auto V, Grand Theft Auto Online and Grand Theft Auto VI. Rockstar's own GTA Online creator guide identifies the Phantom as the series' large truck model.1

Overview

Design and Inspiration

The Phantom resembles long-nose Peterbilt and Kenworth highway tractors, particularly the Peterbilt 389 and Kenworth W900.34 Its tall sleeper cab, external air cleaners and long hood carry the same classic American truck proportions.

Appearances

In GTA IV, the Phantom is the game's conventional semi-truck and includes a voiced GPS. It returns in GTA V and GTA Online with trailer-towing capability. When Trevor drives one through Blaine County, the cab's CB radio can play ambient trucker conversations.

A Phantom travels along a highway near the start of GTA VI Trailer 1, sharing the road with returning vehicles including the Vapid Speedo, Dashound and Brute Shuttle Bus.2
