In [[The Lost and Damned]], an open bed Yankee, the only one of its kind in the series. While its chassis and cab design is still derived from the GTA IV Yankee's design, the open bed Yankee is also distinguishable by it weathered design (complete with dents and rough bodywork), and comes in only one body color (gray and white). The open bed Yankee is also considerably more nimble and faster given its lighter build.

A variant of the Yankee in GTA Chinatown, also known simply as the "Yankee", bears an [[Ammu-Nation]] livery. The Ammu-Nation Yankee only begins appearing on the streets after "[[Pimp His Ride]]", when the player gains access to [[AmmuNation.net]]. The truck is identifiable by its red, white and blue color, as well as a visible blue star on the roof of the cargo compartment and Ammu-Nation's rocket-shaped logo on the sides. Performance is otherwise similar to a regular Yankee. Being a large truck, this variant of the Yankee cannot be resprayed or repaired; neither can the player save the truck in the garage under normal circumstances.

The Ammu-Nation Yankee typically contains a weapons cache for a specific weapon that can be acquired through the theft of the vehicle; however, the truck is locked as long as the driver is inside, so players must resort to damaging the truck until the driver exits. From this point on, players may acquire the truck and drive it to a secluded [[Safehouses in GTA Chinatown Wars|safehouse]]; killing the shotgun-armed and well armored driver is optional. Once at a safehouse, players will automatically exit the truck, and may weld open the cargo hold for their reward. The truck will remain locked thereafter.
