What Garages Can Trevor Buy in GTA 5?

Trevor Philips, the unpredictable and volatile protagonist of Grand Theft Auto V, has specific options when it comes to vehicle storage. Unlike Michael and Franklin, his garage situation is a bit more unique and tied to his lifestyle. So, what garages can Trevor buy? The primary garage available for purchase by Trevor is the Pillbox Hill garage, which is a four-car storage facility, along with the ability to store an unlimited amount of special vehicles.

Understanding Trevor’s Garage Options

Trevor’s garage situation is quite specific. He doesn’t have the same access to house-based garages like Michael and Franklin. Instead, he has a trailer safehouse, which is essentially a mobile home, without a traditional attached garage. His available garage options are largely limited to the Pillbox Hill garage, and the parking spaces at the Vanilla Unicorn, which he acquires later in the game. Additionally, Trevor has the ability to utilize a four-car garage that is separate from his safehouse and shared among the three characters.

Let’s dive deeper into these specifics. Trevor’s primary means of purchased vehicle storage is the Pillbox Hill garage. This garage is located in Los Santos, providing a convenient base for vehicle storage away from Trevor’s Blaine County operations. It comes with four regular storage spots and also allows for an unlimited number of special vehicle storage, accessible via a menu. This makes it highly versatile for his range of vehicles, from motorbikes to high-performance cars.

Other Storage Options for Trevor

Although Trevor doesn’t have a typical “house garage”, he can also use the parking spaces at the Vanilla Unicorn, the strip club he owns after progressing through the game. While not a dedicated garage, these parking spaces allow him to store a couple of vehicles, although it’s important to note they aren’t as secure as a garage. Over-parking in that area can lead to vehicles despawning.

Another critical storage option for Trevor is the shared four-car garage. This is not a purchase but an existing garage accessible by all three characters. It acts as a supplementary storage space and is independent from the safehouse garages, and the special garage menu. Here, Trevor can store four additional vehicles, extending his storage options.

Key Points About Trevor’s Garages

• Pillbox Hill Garage: His primary purchased garage, located in Los Santos.
• Vehicle Capacity: Stores four cars and unlimited special vehicles.
• Vanilla Unicorn Parking: Limited, two-car parking outside the strip club.
• Shared Four-Car Garage: Accessible by all characters, a supplement to his other storage.
• No House Garages: Unlike Michael and Franklin, Trevor does not get a dedicated garage at his safehouse location.

Understanding Trevor’s vehicle storage options is crucial to efficiently manage his growing collection of cars and motorcycles.
