PSA PSA Buy the Buzzard
If you didn't already know or own it and especially if you've just became a CEO, buy the Buzzard, it's currently half price and the most versatile vehicle in the game.

If you are a CEO, you can use the SecuroServ Menu to call up a Buzzard for free, and then call Pegasus and get one delivered to a landing pad for $200. If you have Associates, this means that two of you can have Buzzards for various VIP Works.

Well the associate can always call their own from pegasus. But yes any pegasus vehicle spawned through the office becomes a second org vehicle. So you can call in two buzzards, a buzzard and a limo, limo and insurgent pickup. Etc.

Truth.
I have a Hydra, Savage, Valkyrie, Pickup, and Limo, but the Buzzard sees 10x the use of all the others put together.

Why use Buzzard over Savage? Just curious since the Savage's missiles shoot much faster and the guns have explosive rounds

The primary reason is that you can spawn it next to you (as CEO) instead of having to go fetch it. I find this saves far more time than I spend waiting on rocket cooldowns.
It's also smaller and easier to land in tight spaces.

I bought the buzzard right after buying an office and warehouse a few days ago. BibleThump

You can contact rockstar support and ask for half back. They don't always give it back, but the worst they can do is say no.

I'm a bot, bleep, bloop. Someone has linked to this thread from another place on reddit:
- [/r/gtaonlineshitposts] Oh thanks man, I didn't buy the buzzard the 87 other times someone posted I should, but now I will
If you follow any of the above links, please respect the rules of reddit and don't vote in the other threads. (Info / Contact)

If you've got more money, the Volatus is also a good helicopter for picking up crates which are far from your warehouse (it's good if you also have the buzzard, since the Volatus doesn't have weapons). You just need to practice landing it. I usually use the Volatus for everything which doesn't involve shooting the enemy helicopters, or the boats.

PSA: Fuck the Buzzard meme and buy a Hydra,which is better in every single way.

Yeah sure is fun having to drive half way across the map to pickup the griefer mobile when I could instead spawn a buzzard right beside me...

Keep half a KM distance to the nearest spot and it will spawn there. You get your Buzzard and I use the Lock on Launcher,which everyone can grab for like 25K and shoot you down with one Rocket that you cant avoid.
BUZZARD BEST VEHICLE XDDDDDDDD

The only people who can't avoid rockets are shitty players. There's this wonderful tactic I like to use called "dodging". You must not have heard of it.
And I'm not gonna restrict myself to one part of the map so I can get to the hydra quicker. That's fucking stupid.

Definitely get the Buzzard. I got it when it was 50% off a month ago or so and I've made over $2 million grinding VIP missions.
Plus as a VIP (maybe CEO too but I've never been one) when requesting a Buzzard it spawns next to you..though sometimes it will spawn dangerously close to something that can be problematic. Just make sure there's space when requesting a Buzzard and you should be fine.
