Rockstar has introduced a new holiday event in Grand Theft Auto Online, featuring the Happy Holidays Hauler, a truck that delivers presents to players as it travels around the map. In addition to the exclusive clothing items that can be unlocked by finding the truck, players can also score various other rewards.
Where to Find the Happy Holidays Hauler in GTA Online
To locate the Happy Holidays Hauler, players will need to be in a session with at least two players present. The truck begins its journey at Legion Square in Los Santos, driving up to Paleto Bay and then back again. However, the truck only spawns as part of a random event, making it a somewhat rare occurrence in the game.
To participate in the Happy Holidays Hauler event, players must be in a free roam session and the game session must be at least 60 minutes old. Once the event ends, there is a one-hour cooldown period before the truck will reappear.
How to Get the Festive Sprunk and eCola Sweaters in GTA Online
The primary incentive for seeking out the Happy Holidays Hauler is the opportunity to obtain the new holiday-themed eCola and Sprunk sweaters. These items are found in the presents dropped by the truck, and while the presents usually contain cash, snacks, ammo, and RP, there is a chance for them to drop one of the coveted sweaters.
It’s important to note that only one player can collect each present, so it is advisable to approach this event with caution, especially in public sessions where other players may pose a threat.
Once players have collected the new sweaters, the Happy Holidays Hauler loses its appeal, and players may want to focus their attention on other holiday-themed events and activities in the game.
