Dozer

A Dozer in GTA San Andreas.

The Dozer, is a heavy earth-moving vehicle in GTA San Andreas.

Design

The Dozer in GTA San Andreas is designed as a four-wheel front loader, being stamped with a DUDE logo in association with the manufacturer of heavy machinery. Obviously, the vehicle is devoided of any luxuries, and is depicted with an open driver compartment with no doors, leaving the player vulnerable to being pull out of the vehicle by hostile NPCs. The Dozer is also equipped with an adjustable ram. It is mainly used for the Quarry side-mission.

Performance

The Dozer is very large and heavy, and therefore has a slow top speed; the Dozer also features rear wheel steering, meaning that it is pushed into turns instead of pulled, making for a very small turning radius, although this also makes the Dozer more vulnerable to tailspins if in higher speeds. Its movable ram can be used to plowed through a bunch of other cars is no problem for this vehicle; as its weight and torque make it nearly unstoppable. Along with this is a feature created by the roll cage around the cab: the Dozer is almost completely flip-proof. Because of the cage's position, when the Dozer is flipped, it rolls over the cage and usually will end up on its wheels. This feature is very useful in Quarry missions, as you can descend several tiers without using the ramp or a risk of flipping the dozer.
