🔫 GTA 6 Trunk Storage May Act Like RDR2’s Horse System — Fans Speculate on Game-Changing Immersion

Posted by Toth90 on r/GTA, the idea that GTA 6’s car trunk might function similarly to the horse in Red Dead Redemption 2 has exploded with support — and fan theories are pouring in.
"I think the trunk is definitely going to act like the horse in RDR to store weapons."
— u/Toth90
Trunk Features: More Than Just Guns?
Redditors were quick to add their own thoughts to the mix. Some speculated that players could also store clothing, loot, and even NPC bodies in the trunk. Others are calling for deeper immersion, like cops checking your trunk during random traffic stops — a mechanic inspired by games like Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 and Mafia.
"And other stuff like clothes and items probably." — u/RecognitionPutrid772
"I want to feed them to the gators." — u/lymeeater
"Hopefully NPCs too
" — u/LewisB_93
The possibilities are as immersive as they are dark.
Smarter Police, Real Consequences?
A standout suggestion was adding a more nuanced police system — less GTA V's instant death squad, more Mafia II's ticket-and-bribe approach. Players want systems where cops stop you for speeding, open carrying, or suspicious trunk noises. Some users even want to be able to refuse a search by citing their rights.
"I hope I can tell the cop that I assert my 4th amendment right and will not consent to a search of my vehicle." — u/Mean-Summer1307
This opens the door to stealthier gameplay: conceal weapons, bribe your way out of trouble, or risk it all in a high-speed chase with a body in the back.
Realism vs Fun: Where’s the Balance?
While many are excited about these potential immersive additions, a few users raised valid concerns about over-complicating gameplay.
"That's the type of realism that gets annoying at some point." — u/DarkHandCommando
"There should be a way to turn it off though." — u/timc_720
Others believe Rockstar will strike the right balance, offering classic chaos through cheats or optional mechanics.
RDR2-Level Customization and Physics?
Another hope shared by fans is the return of dynamic clothing and weapon concealment tied to outfits, similar to RDR2. From storing full outfits in the trunk to physics-reactive clothing, the bar for realism is high.
"We NEED the clothes physics from RDR2." — u/thinman12345
Trunk Interactions and Dark Creativity
Perhaps the most entertaining part of the thread: the creative ideas for what players would do with trunk storage. From booby traps and proximity mines to kidnapping and body dumping, the dark sandbox potential has fans buzzing.
"Throw someone in the trunk and drive it into the sea." — u/KonradDavies0001
"Kidnapping was literally half the fun of RDR2 free roam." — u/DMdebil
TL;DR: If Rockstar makes the car trunk a dynamic inventory system like the horse in RDR2, GTA 6 could deliver one of the most immersive and chaotic open-world experiences ever. Whether you're storing guns, changing outfits, dumping bodies, or dodging cops — your trunk might just be the heart of the gameplay.
