A Barracks OL, as seen in Grand Theft Auto III.

The Barracks OL is a military truck based on the Flatbed. It exists in all GTA3 III era games and appears when the player achieves a 6-star Wanted Level. Despite its huge size, it is only capable of carrying one extra passenger. In GTA: San Andreas, is it simply called the Barracks.

Overview

Although it is one of the heaviest vehicles in game, it is faster than the much lighter Flatbed. Its ramming power is awesome: it can easily penetrate a SWAT roadblock. As it is long and has 2 rear axles, it suffers from understeer at higher speeds. The Barracks OL has all-wheel drive, but because of its size and weight, it can easily get stuck in off-road terrain. Despite it being an army truck, it is not bullet proof or missile proof and will explode if it collides with a Rhino tank. These vehicles are frequently involved in accidents due to the carelessness of their army drivers, who are only thinking of one thing: to smash you into oblivion, no matter what it takes.

The Barracks is similar in design and function to the M939 "5 ton" truck.

The Barracks OL comes in two types: covered and uncovered. In the opening of GTA Vice City Stories, Victor Vance appears in the covered truck.
