The first type is a garage for storing vehicles, almost exclusively attached to a [[safehouse]]. In [[ | The first type is a garage for storing vehicles, almost exclusively attached to a [[safehouse]], or located near one. In [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], a maximum of four vehicles will be saved in any of the garages though fewer or more may actually fit inside, depending on the size of the garage as well as the vehicle. A variation on this is the large hangar at the [[Verdant Meadows]] airstrip, in which larger vehicles including planes can be stored. In [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], garages were replaced with parking spaces outlined in yellow outside any [[Safehouses in GTA IV|safehouse]] marked with 'Residents Parking Only'. Though more may fit inside the outline, these spaces will save up to two vehicles. Generally, vehicles parked within the space will become dirty, probably from dirt or such kicked up by traffic passing by, or clean, after rainy weather, other vehicles kept in spots that haven't been driven a while will stay dirty until rain comes. At random times, most stored vehicles will spawn dirty, or clean. There is also a risk that traffic might collide with the vehicles (though this only happens when the parking space is still near the player); although any damage to the vehicle is repaired when the parking spot spawns again, if the vehicle is pushed out of the parking spot - and the player doesn't notice and reparks it - the vehicle will be lost. | ||

Some garages are only available during particular missions, and will not be accessible otherwise. In GTA IV some houses have working garages - for instance, the double-wide garages in [[Westdyke]], Alderney. These will open automatically when a car approaches and NPCs can use them for parking, but vehicles are not saved if the player leaves the area. | |||
The southeastern-most hangar at [[Las Venturas Airport]] is only used for spawning the [[AT-400]] passenger plane. | |||

* In GTA IV, the [[Broker Safehouse]] becomes unavailable after the mission [[Roman's Sorrow]], but the player can still save vehicles in the parking space. It is unknown if this was intended by the designers or not. This also applies in [[The Lost and Damned]], where [[The Lost MC Clubhouse]] is burned down in [[Get Lost|the last mission]], but the parking spaces are still available for saving vehicles. | |||
* In GTA IV [[Multiplayer in GTA IV|Multiplayer]], players are able to save cars in the parking spaces provided at the safehouses for the course of the game. However, only cars that <u>do not</u> spawn with traffic will save. Cars that will save include the [[Sentinel]] at the [[Francis International Airport in GTA IV Era|airport]] and the [[Rancher]] that's parked outside the [[Triangle Club]] in [[Industrial]], [[Bohan]]. | |||
