Overview

The Pounder Custom is a Grand Theft Auto industrial modelled on the International Harvester / Mack (cab styled like the Mack CH613, with International 9000 cues) and built in-game by MTL. It has been part of the series since GTA Online (2019).

It references American medium-duty cabover/box trucks.

History in the GTA Series

The Pounder is an MTL heavy delivery truck; the Custom version arrived with the Arena/Casino-era updates as a weaponised/utility platform. It is used for GTA Online business resupply and special cargo.

What We Actually Know About It in GTA 6

Rockstar has not shown or named the Pounder Custom for GTA 6. Given that it (or a close equivalent) has recurred across the series, it is reasonable to expect something like it to appear — but that is an expectation drawn from franchise history, not a confirmed fact.

Honest note: Anyone quoting a specific GTA 6 top speed, price, spawn point, or upgrade list for the Pounder Custom is guessing. We would rather say plainly that those numbers don't exist yet than invent them.

The MTL Connection

Inside GTA's fiction the Pounder Custom carries the MTL badge. Rockstar's in-game manufacturers are parody brands of real-world marques — a way the series builds a recognisable car world without licensing real names — and the MTL stable is where this vehicle sits.
