What We Actually Know About It in GTA 6

History in the GTA Series
The Sheriff SUV patrols GTA V's rural Blaine County, distinct from the city police cruisers of Los Santos. It reflects the series' habit of giving rural areas their own sheriff livery.
The Real-World Machine It Copies
In the real world the Sheriff SUV stands in for the Ford Explorer / Chevrolet Tahoe police SUV. It references American sheriff-department patrol SUVs.
