GTA 6 Online: 10 Essential Things Every Solo Player Should Own
We're breaking down 10 things every solo player absolutely needs to own in GTA 6 Online. Whether you're just starting out or playing solo by choice, these items will help you dominate Los Santos, make millions, and stay alive while doing it. From essential vehicles to profitable businesses, this list has everything you need to thrive in GTA 6's online world.
1. A Fast Vehicle for Time Trials
Every week, GTA Online features time trials that reward around $350,000 for completion - that's over $18 million a year if you do them consistently. To beat these challenges, you'll need a top-tier speed machine.
· HSW Hakuchou Drag - Costs about $976,000 plus a $1.45M HSW upgrade. Hits 157.5 mph and handles beautifully, though being a motorcycle, it's risky in traffic.
· HSW Bravado Banshee GTS - Costs nearly $4M total, but its 172.5 mph top speed makes it the fastest land vehicle in GTA Online.
· Budget Pick: Pegassi Bati 801 - Just $15,000 and still one of the fastest bikes in the game. Perfect for non-HSW time trials.
Owning one of these ensures steady weekly income and faster travel across the map.
2. The Right Weapons Loadout
There are dozens of guns in GTA, but you only need a few key ones to cover every situation:
· Assault Shotgun - Fully automatic, suppressed, and can equip a 32-round drum mag. Perfect for clearing rooms fast.
· Special Carbine - Reliable, accurate, and the only assault rifle with a 100-round drum mag without being Mark II.
· Heavy Sniper / Marksman Rifle - Use the Heavy Sniper for power, or the Marksman for rapid fire and flexibility.
· Combat MG Mark II - Top-tier for damage and range; shreds enemies from any distance.
· Tactical SMG - A better alternative to the AP Pistol with a 60-round mag and great mobility.
· RPG or Homing Launcher - For vehicles and crowd control, nothing beats the classics.
Master these and you'll be unstoppable in missions or free mode.
3. The Agency
One of the best investments in the entire game. The Agency gives access to:
· Payphone hits and security contracts for fast cash.
· Imani Tech upgrades (like missile jammers and armor) for select vehicles.
· Fast travel, a 20-car garage, and passive income of up to $20K every in-game day.
It also unlocks The Contract Heist, which pays huge money solo or with friends.
4. An Imani Tech Vehicle
You need a car that keeps you alive in public sessions. Options include:
· Ocelot Virtue (Free after Drug Wars missions) - Electric supercar with armor, oil-slick mines, and a missile jammer.
· Benefactor XLS Armored - $900K total; tough, cheap, and now Imani-compatible.
· Bravado Buffalo STX - Mid-tier beast that can take 4 RPGs or 12 homing missiles.
· Grotti Stinger TT - The high-end choice with HSW upgrades, missile jammer, and oil slick mines.
These vehicles make griefers a non-issue - a must for any solo grinder.
5. An Attack Helicopter (Akula or FH-1 Hunter)
Fast travel with firepower. The Akula reigns supreme thanks to stealth mode, which keeps you completely off radar. It's great for stealth missions or avoiding PvP chaos. The FH-1 Hunter hits harder with its seven-missile barrage, but it's less versatile solo.
If you only buy one - go Akula.
6. The Toreador
For $4.25M, this is one of GTA's most versatile vehicles. It's armored, rocket-powered, submersible, and armed with powerful missiles. Whether on land or sea, the Toreador is your go-anywhere survival tool - perfect for solo players who do everything themselves.
7. The Acid Lab (Brickade 6x6)
Complete the Drug Wars missions to get the Brickade 6x6 free, then upgrade it for $750K to turn it into the Acid Lab. It's a simple, single-vehicle passive business that can earn over $200K per full sale.
Add the equipment upgrade ($250K) for max efficiency and enjoy steady income without hassle - no annoying multi-vehicle sales.
8. The Terabyte + Garment Factory
With the new Master Control Terminal upgrade, you can now access all your business computers from the Terabyte. Spawn it nearby, restock or manage all operations in minutes, and skip traveling across the city. This setup saves solo players tons of grind time.
9. The Oppressor Mk II
Even after nerfs, the Oppressor Mk II remains the fastest and most efficient grinder vehicle in GTA Online. It's unmatched for quickly getting between missions, sourcing crates, or escaping trouble. It also pairs perfectly with your businesses for max profit efficiency.
10. The CEO Cargo Business
Finally, the most profitable solo venture: CEO Cargo Warehouses.
Once established, you can passively source crates and sell them for up to $9 million profit from a $2 million investment. It's easy, passive, and solo-friendly - especially when combined with the Terabyte.
Final Thoughts
Owning these 10 essentials will make you completely self-sufficient in GTA 6 Online. You'll have speed, firepower, defense, and multiple income streams - all perfectly suited for solo grinding GTA 6 Money. So, gear up, invest smart, and get ready to rule the streets of Vice City like a one-man army.
