The Mr. Whoopee is an ice-cream van found in all of the GTA III Era games, starting with Grand Theft Auto III. It is usually found driving around the suburban areas of each city.
Overview
One of the vehicle's special attributes is a musical jingle that can be toggled on or off with the horn button. The melody in GTA III and GTA: Vice City is the same as that used by the Ice Cream Van in Grand Theft Auto 2, but it was changed in GTA: San Andreas. In GTA III, it is a unique design, however in GTA: Vice City and GTA: San Andreas it resembles a Boxville (It has a similar design but is considerably smaller). The Boxville style van is top heavy and is prone to rolling if not driven carefully.

Trivia
- In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City the Mr. Whoopee has a mission called Distribution associated with it, in which the player uses a Mr. Whoopee truck as a front to sell an unspecified controlled substance (probably cocaine) to passing pedestrians. Four or more sales in a short time will earn the player a wanted star.
- The decorations on top of the van serve as yet another sexual reference. In GTA: Vice City, it resembles a large pair of breasts, whereas in GTA: San Andreas, it resembles the male genital region.
