Atlas Jackhammer

The Atlas Jackhammer is a Mud Plugger that is featured in MotorStorm and in MotorStorm: Pacific Rift.

It is a full-sized truck, similar to a Humvee and other SUVs, with a complete tubular rollcage surrounding it.

Trivia

• Big Dog's "Humvee" from one of his cutscenes may in fact be this exact vehicle, but it's more likely to be a Pacifier.
• This Mud Plugger seems to resemble the Atlas Pacifier; However, the Jackhammer is notably shorter due to it only having two doors, as opposed to the Pacifier's four doors. In fact, the Jackhammer seems to be a cross between the Humvee and the first-generation Ford Bronco.
• The Jackhammer is also included in the Mischief Vehicle Pack 1 as a remote-control Racing Truck.
  • Coincidentally, because the tires stick out in its RC iteration, it resembles its beta variation that appeared in the E3 2005 trailer for the first MotorStorm.
• In Pacific Rift, the two rear mufflers are off-center.
• In Pacific Rift, this vehicle is unlocked by reaching Rank 5.
• In Monument Valley, you need to earn a total of 1,690 points to unlock this vehicle.
• In the original MotorStorm, this is one of the few vehicles where the AI drivers sometimes use Player liveries. Another example of this is the Beelzebuggy Carabid.
• In Pacific Rift, Flameboy (blue/grey "US Air Force" livery), Tommy Knocker (red livery) and Gemma Hewitt (camo livery) are the AI Characters seen driving this vehicle.
• In the E3 Trailer for MotorStorm, it appeared to have a sticker that read "Kamikaze" on the hood. It also had a bigger front bumper, with a mounted winch.
