    Usually I just use cars, I only do bikes when I'm feeling like YOLO.

    I would have to go with a car. I always end up crashing on a bike and it just ends up frustrating me.

    While bikes always have a special place in my heart, and are a lot of fun. I prefer to go mostly with cars. Sometimes there's so much going on that crashing in a bike every now and then turns more into an annoyance than a convenient choice. Cars solves the problem for me.

    I would say bike or ATV. It's easier to maneuver around pedestrians and cars. Off roading is easier as well.

    The age old question do you want speed and handling or comfort and security. I mainly use cars because im a pretty reckless drives. Its GTA no need to obey traffic laws and such so I just speed and rush through everything. Doing so on a bike will lead to many death and or high speed accident in which I am launched into the air aimlessly. I still use a bike from time to time I just take a little more care an patience when getting around yet I cant avoid the occasional bump on the road.

    Likewise, I die way too often on bikes to my liking. Cars are typically the better choice for most actions in the game.

    Definitely prefer the car. You can get to where you want to go faster, and it's fun to kind of mess with people on it. In addition to that you can take a lot more hits without dying in the car. Death comes a lot faster on the bike, it seems.

    I chose car because I occasionally drive them. In reality I prefer a fast truck. I can just muscle a car out the way and I admit to getting some joy out of running over a guy on a bike. I've also got a few trucks big enough to run over your car. Trucks are cool.

    I will choose a car over a bike anyday but i will drive them on occasion, I even own a bike in gta. When you ride a bike there is always the chance of falling off and that can get frustrating some times. Cars are better because you don't have to worry about falling off and you have a better chance of surviving if someone is shooting at you. A car also has more customization options and you can drift a car.

    Lol. Same here. I only ride bikes when I'm feeling more adventurous and usually when I don't feel like carrying out missions. It's just much easier to get in and out and also maneuver through traffic so it's easier to cause a riot and get away quickly for when the police arrive.

    I love cars in GTA V. They look so slick and cool. But I also like bikes but I prefer cars. And also I'm bad at driving bikes in the game I always get killed or die.

    I think it depends on the situation. In general, I like cars for "safety" and bikes for the speed. Cars can last longer with collisions and stuff, but bikes just kill you if you collide with anything.

    Cars are more fun only if you don't know how to use a bike. I had many, many encounters in all GTA games where bikes were better in outrunning cops and the overall experience with using a bike is much more fun then using a car.

    I love the risk involved with taking the bike around. Riding down the mountains up in rural Los Santos really is a thrill. The controls and smoothness of game play while on the bike is not as strong as other vehicles, but it is still very fun. Overall I would have to say the bike is better because of the sense of freedom it provides over the big bulky car.

    Each has its place. A bike is faster and more maneuverable. It is easier to roll up on people on sidewalks and other places a car won't fit or is likely to sustain damage. The car is cooler, however. There's something about putting the pedal to the floor while listening to tunes. Cars are also safer. You will die less in a car.

    I think that bikes are fairly useless. They are much too easy to get shot off, and if you crash at faster than a snails pace, you get flung off the vehicle. Cars are much safer, and can even be upgraded to have stuff like armor and bulletproof glass. I only would only use a bike just for fun, not for any specific advantages.

    I think it is more fun to carjack someone. When I throw open the door and grab the driver and toss him to the ground, I'm the man! The whole idea is to commit grand theft auto, right? Okay, there might be a LITTLE more to the game than that. There are also hookers.

    Bikes are great for speed but all it takes is one mistake and you are wasted. A car offers security and some of them can match the speed of a bike.

    I love how the bikes handle and swerving them in and out of traffic, but the fact that you get flinged off them so far when you crash really makes them not very useful during the course of the game, it's just not worth the risk just to get there 30 seconds earlier.
