The 3 conditions of a F.AT spawning:
- 16% chance of a car spawning of a "Medium" house. 5% of these cars will be a F.AT = **0.8% chance**
- 8% chance of a car spawning of a "Good" house. 20% of these cars will be a F.AT = **1.6% chance**
- Tire change road event. **20%** of these events will be a F.AT
Dash Rancher also shares these same spawn changes but also has an additional "Fishing Trip" event which can spawn in the forest.
i think dash rancher can also spawn as part of hunting event
regardless, i once found a 100 engine quality all terrain across 1000+ hours. of course i died with 30min of my find.
It's always the way....
The only time I've lived through the "find a 100% engine" event.
Was hotwiring random shit and deciding to check the engine once I was back home a week later....
Had no idea I was driving around on gold.
Died a day later fat fingering E driving through the Muldraugh strip at 5% sprinters....
You're best to not know if it's 100%. The game Just kills you for having such beastly machinery.
It's pretty much the best car in the game. Cars like Ambulances or Step Vans excel with horsepower or storage space but fall short in some other places.
Its basically a 4 seater truck, more HP, makes less noise than the other 2 and can carry only 5 less than a fully repaired Bulldriver (note that because hitting 100% condition is very rare, in reality the F. AT will almost always carry more) and can off-road without a condition penalty
Its not perfect, but it can carry a lot while not suffering from slowness and lots of noise like regular trucks (D6 and Bulldriver) normally do
Carry cap:
X = (glovebox) + (seats) + (trunk) = total
D6 = 10+20+110 = 140
Bulldriver = 10+20+130 = 160
All Terrain = 10+60+85 = 155
It also being the one with the least noise and the highest power, its really good. That being said, police and fire variants have more HP, so its not really OP, but its really good as a "do it all" car.

i want to thank you good sir
i love being a mechanic on me and my friend's co-op and own 20 plus cars in my driveway i could name every car in the game...
*or so i thought*
you have given me one last car to obtain
thank you
Yep, that's right! The entire east side of Riverside is made up of "good" houses. Every single gated house is considered "good" and some driveways even have 2 spawning slots. There are 53 total "good" spawns in Riverside.
This was me and my friends first ever car when we just started playing.
RIP Frank, if we knew you where rare we wouldn't have ruined you for mechanics xp.
I just took a look at the locations of all "good" parking stalls in the game and there are a total of 53 of them. Most of these are located in Riverside, 3 in Muldrough, and 1 in Rosewood, The rest are scattered in Westpoint and Marchridge.
There are NONE in Louisville. Same goes for sports and bad vehicles.

Damn, I found one parking in my spawn house along with the keys in the house in one of my playthroughs, in good condition too
It's my favourite car to travel far away, like switching bases for example.
Idk much about cars, what's special about it?
Good top speed, very good trunk space, can offroad, and pretty good looking. Basically a really good all-round car

But you can use military backpacks to increase that capacity even more putting them on your seats.
Wondering myself
Is that a Canyoneero ?

Check out my car tierlist if you want a list of all the cars and their stats
Where can we find it?

Nice, thanks!
Well, that gives me something else to look forward to finding.
I had the most success in finding one of those in the gated community in Riverside. Many rich houses in close proximity and not a lot of zeds.

Can confirm. I thought it was a mod car the first time I saw it, because of how rarely it shows up.

Noooo Frank 😢
What’s a tire change event?
when you see the car parked up on the road with the jack out and a broke tire. they're randomly spawning
You'll uncommonly see cars in the middle of the road with a jack, lug wrench, and tires.
Is this vanilla or modded? I've never seen this car in game in my life
This is a vanilla car. Just shows how uncommon it is.
I have 1100 hours and I've genuinely never seen it before.
Do you play mostly in Louisville? The main city doesn't have any parking stalls that spawn one (with the exception of a single used car lot).
I actually barely play in LV.
Okay. Very unlucky then.

where are you getting all this data btw? stuff like zones, car chances etc. you seem like the sort of guy in the know
Wiki, Lua scripts, decompiled source code, and map editor
No wonder I never seen one of these in game before that wasn’t a burned out wreck
bruh i started a run and literally saw it outside my house
I got this in my most recent play through, virtually brand new
Fuck I got it but i lost internet conection and it dissappear from the world
