TBF, we always knew it would be a few months before we heard any more for certain.
They obviously want to get Max Payne out of the way first and then a few weeks following start unloading details about V.

May, when MP is released, is a mere 3 months away.

if you remember, in the traliler you can see a Freeway called del perro freeway pointing to east LS. Well, I firmly believe that the city or region based for del perro is San Bernardino.

Why? Maybe nobody thought of before is because most of you speak in English. I am Spanish,and San Bernardino in Spanish closely resembles the name of a popular dog, the Saint Bernard Dog, san bernardo in Spanish.
the region of San Bernardino is located in Socal, east of Los Angeles County. But most important is that San Bernardino is known for having one of the largest valleys in United States (San Bernardino County is the most extensive of California), and especially by the San Bernardino Mountains, wich Have the tallest peak in all Southern California, San Gorgonio Mountain at 11.503 feet (3.506 m). If you Remember the picture of the great mountain and if San Bernardino has the highest mountains ,can be logical that del perro is based in the region of San Bernardino. Many people still think that the picture of the mountain is the Mount chilliad, but the mountain is in san fierro, and san fierro is not in the game. It's just Southern Calfornia.

In relation to this I've been reviewing my theory to find more clues. This is what I have;
-the "Three Saints" is the name Occasionally Used To describe the high points of the three tallest mountain ranges in Southern California: San Jacinto Peak (Naturalist John Muir wrote of San Jacinto Peak, "The view from San Jacinto is the most sublime spectacle to be found anywhere on this earth!"), Mount San Gorgonio (high point of the San Bernardino Mountains), and Mount San Antonio (high point of the San Gabriel Mountains).
- The San Bernardino Mountain and the San Gabriel Mountains are in practice a single ridge with two different names, so we can not say for sure wich of this mountains the picture is based, it is more clear that the mountain is inspired in the San Bernardino mountains, the San Gabriel mountains or the San Jacinto Peak. I think the mountain region will be based in the San Bernardino Mountains and the San Gabriel Mountains and that the wind farm that you can see in this picture are actually the San Gorgonio Pass which cuts Between the San Bernardino Mountains on the north and the San Jacinto Mountains to the south. Why?
EDIT:I can not put pictures,here is the link, http://www.igta5.com/images/gta-5-trailer-...nd-turbines.jpg.

-The San Gorgonio Pass Wind Farm is a wind farm located on the eastern slope of the San Gorgonio Pass, outside Palm Springs, and is one of three major wind farms in California, Along With the Altamont and Tehachapi passes. But, why the wind farm in the picture is not the Tehachapi or Altamont? . Because if my theory above is true and Del perro is a region based in San Bernardino County / San Jacinto peak / palm spring, the mountains that are at the bottom of the windfarm picture must belong to this region. The freeway leading to Del perro (assumed thath Del perro is based in San Bernardino County / San Jacinto peak / palm spring) is the same that lead to east LS, and the only one who fits this really is the I -10, which has an intersection to get to San Bernardino county and the San Gorgonio Pass. Consider that Mount San Jacinto has the fifth-largest rock wall in North America and the first in southern California and this peak is only six miles south of Interstate 10, you could quickly get here from Los santos (99 miles and two hours from los angeles), And if you think that the windfarm and the peak are close, it may be a tourist place to get away from city noise. Moreover, Altamont is in central California and tehapachi is located too much in the south, is too small, and is in the middle of nowhere, so these windfard are out of competition .

Another interesting thing that sure has been said before, is that in the image of the wind farm you can see the same plane that after passing over the vineyards, and if you look closely at this picture you can see that the hills and peaks that are intuited from behind of the vineyards can be the same as we are talking about. If we assume that the plane of the vineyards is the same as seen on the windfarm then it is possible that the vineyards are not too far from the mountains. I would bet that the plane is coming from west (windfarm) to east (Vineyard), so the actual vineyards that are inspired for the picture ( perhaps not, I believe that are not based on any specific region) should be located between the San Gorgonio Pass and Los santos.
