Grunt family

The Grunt family is a military family from The Sims 2 and return in The Sims 4 available in The Sims 4 Gallery. They live in Strangetown, a neighborhood that comes with the base game. General Buzz Grunt is the father of three sons named Tank, Ripp and Buck Grunt. Tank Grunt wants to be more like his father, while Ripp Grunt just wants some romance, and little Buck Grunt is just left out. His wife, Lyla Grunt, divorced him and was later electrocuted under mysterious circumstances. She is buried in the Specter family graveyard.

General Buzz and Tank have a grudge against the Curious family for being so strange, and the Smith family due to them being aliens, but Ripp and Buck have positive relationships with Johnny and Jill Smith, respectively.

The family picture to the right can give a pretty good image of the family members' personalities, and why they clash so much: Tank and Buzz are clearly domineering and tough. Ripp just seems lazy, while Buck appears to be more sensitive, thoughtful, and studious. Out of all their deceased relatives, only Lyla and Mary Melons can be resurrected.

When the family is first played, it is a Sunday morning.

Trivia

 * The military base in Lunar Lakes is named after this family, Grunt Military Base.
 * In The Sims 4, it says the household uses no material from packs, which is false. The family is still playable in the base game, but with certain aspects removed or changed, such as no members having the StrangerVille Mystery aspiration. However, some of the members still have the Home Turf trait and Lyla's death type is still poison in the base game, despite these normally being unavailable without certain packs.
