A Mr Wongs in GTA III.

Mr Wongs or Wong is a Mule-based laundry van featured in Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto Advance and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.

Description

Unlike the other Mule based vans, the Mr Wongs is front wheel drive. The Mr Wongs may also achieve very high speed despite its bad handling due likely to its heavy weight. Aside from the drivetrain, it is basically identical to the Triad Fish Van, right down to the horn. Like the Mule and Triad Fish Van, the Mr Wongs is also available in a variety of body colors.

The truck is evidently named after Mr. Wong's Laundrette in Chinatown in Portland, Liberty City. When entered by the player, the truck is referred to as "Mr Wongs" (without a period in the end of "Mr" and an apostrophe before the "s"), but the period is present on the company graphics of the truck, and both the period and the apostrophe appear on the logo on the window of the store. Much like the launderette itself, the van also features the slogans: "Liberty's First Choice For All It's Dirty Laundry" and "If It Ain't Wong, It Ain't White".

In GTA III and LCS the Mr Wongs is not normally found driving on the streets, except for in the mission Taking Out The Laundry where Claude is tasked to blow up three of these vans. It also occasionally spawns during Vigilante missions as a stolen vehicle.

In GTA Advance the vehicle is called Wong and it's the gang car of the Triads.
