In a move that I wished more companies would participate in, the guys behind Just Cause 2 are thanking their fans for a successful launch with some free DLC.

Here's the quote from the press release:

As a ‘thank you’ from the Just Cause 2 team for all the grapple carnage of the last two weeks, players can now ram, smash and crash their way across Panau in a smooth, pimped-out ice cream van - the Chevalier Ice Breaker - available now for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC absolutely FREE.

The vehicle itself is very much a reflection of the game - crazy and over the top.

It's a big pink ice cream truck.

Full Description of the car, plus some information about their online stat tracking:

Pimped-out by Panau’s finest body shop, the Chevalier Ice Breaker’s lowered suspension, slick aluminum alloys and body-styled side skirts are perfectly complemented by its rigid front bull bars, more than capable of tearing apart anything that stands in its way. Mind that child!

The Chevalier Ice Breaker is the perfect addition to your arsenal of vehicles for ramping up the chaos on Panau. Take it for a spin and add to the over 25 million kilometres driven by players worldwide, just one of the stats tracked online at JustCause.com. Register your PC, PS3 or Xbox 360 profile on the site and see how your tallest BASE jump, total kills and more shape up against the world’s top ten players.

No lies, that ice cream truck looks pretty legit.  Anyone currently playing Just Cause 2 going to take it for a spin?
