Burrito

Revision as of 01:48, 15 February 2009 by gtw>Hardrock182

The Burrito is a van, which appears in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories and [[Grand Theft Auto IV]. It is considered to be the best van in the GTA III era games. It has great handling, acceleration, control, etc. It has room for four people, two can sit in the rear and some models come with a spoiler on the roof. Both the GTA Vice City and GTA San Andreas versions resemble a 1986-1992 Dodge Ram Van. It is very similar to the Grand Theft Auto III Rumpo, which was changed in GTA Vice City and GTA San Andreas, but without the side window. In GTA Vice City, the Streetwannabe's use a modified version of this van. In GTA IV it resembles a mid '90s' Chevrolet Express from the front, but the rear is more like the Dodge-derived rear found on the San Andreas Burrito. The GTA Vice City and Vice City Stories almost look like the A-Team van in the popular TV Series A-Team. It almost looks like it because of it's spoiler, roof lights, grille, two tone paint job, and wheels.

A special Burrito can be obtained in GTA San Andreas, it is essentially a Burrito with a yellow paintjob. To obtain it, start the mission "Mike Toreno" and get up to the point where T-bone and Mike start shooting at the van. Their bullets will not damage the van, allowing the player to get a Tow Truck/Tractor. Once the player obtains one, get back to the van and kill T-bone or Mike, failing the mission. Tow the van to the nearest garage and save.

The Declasse Burrito makes it's returning appearance, but it is not as fast as previous renditions. It doesn't have a modified version anymore. The Burrito appears more like a service van, with extra weight to withstand damage, but poor acceleration because of it's uneven weight. The Burrito is seen in some industrial or construction areas, as well as Franklin St., Leftwood.

Variants

A special model of the Burrito, called the Laundromat, is used by the Laundromat owner who attempts to escape from Niko in Vlad's mission Hung Out to Dry. It seems to be unintended to be driven by the player, but nonetheless, if the player goes around the back of the Laundromat during the mission, it can be stolen and saved at a safehouse. Basically, it is a Burrito with a different paintjob.

A modified Burrito will be featuring in the upcoming downloadable episodic pack The Lost and Damned for Grand Theft Auto IV.
