The Sandking is, in short, a modified Rancher. (except it doesn't have windows at the back)
It is pretty much the best all purpose ground vehicle in the Grand Theft Auto series. The Sandking made its introductory appearance in GTA: Vice City, being an unlockable vehicle if the player managed to deliver a list of wanted cars to Sunshine Autos. This would spawn one at the second level of the building, which could be maneuvered out. In GTA: San Andreas the Sandking makes another appearance, this time being more easily obtainable, and more user-friendly, it can be found on several beaches throughout the state as well as in "The Big Ear". It appears to be based on a first generation Ford Bronco II. In its third appearance in GTA: Vice City Stories, the Sandking is always parked in a long row of parking space by Ocean Drive.
Handling & Other
The Sandking has excellent handling, due to its escalated suspension system, (it is sometimes available with Hydraulics, which are almost as good as a lowrider) and super gripping tires. The car also has a high speed level, while staying easily controllable. In San Andreas, its engine sound dramatically changes. It boasts the player's sex appeal to about a 75% level, making this car a great choice for off-roading, street racing, mountain climbing, cruising, launching off ramps and picking up girls.
