Dune Buster

The Dune Buster buggy is a vehicle featured in RAGE. It is the most common vehicle in the Wasteland seen so far. A Dune Buster is driven by Dan Hagar on the way to the Hagar Settlement during the Prologue; bandits are known to use modified Dune Busters as well. Weakest of the "full scaled" vehicles, it has high speed and maneuverability and can enter the Buggy class races.

The Dune Buster is a rather simple vehicle. On top of its roof are two sockets for Miniguns or Rocket Launchers, but it can carry only one weapon set at a time, and to change the weapons the player will have to visit a garage. Also players can customize their buggies to have better performance, as well as alternate paint jobs. The loadout is also chosen at a garage.

In the Campaign, this vehicle is only available after completing the quest "Find the Buggy Parts" and mini quest "Grab the Radio".
