A Speedo in GTA IV.

The Vapid Speedo is a cargo van featured in Grand Theft Auto IV. Despite Vapid being GTA's rendition of Ford, the van resembles a 2003-present Chevrolet Express van but the front and back ends have been slightly altered. The vehicle is quite agile, thanks to it's adapted suspension and weightless rear end. Powersliding is quite easy in this vehicle, however in Liberty City's hilly terrain the Speedo is prone to bouncing about more frequently than other vehicles of it's size. The engine is strong, powered by what feels like a high-torque V8 diesel in a rear-wheel drive layout; leading to acceptable acceleration and a reasonable top speed. Anti-lock brakes are an available option, but are not standard. The Speedo is the fastest vehicle in the "van" classification, attaining a maximum of 145mph. After collecting all thirty cars for Stevie he agrees to purchase cars from Niko Bellic, with the Speedo fetching $2,000.

The Speedo features various company names, such as Deliver Me Timbers, Easy Lay Carpet, Hello Tailor and Nonna Pina's Restaurant.

This vehicle cannot be taken to a Car Wash, but can be resprayed at a Pay 'n' Spray.

Locations

Can be usually found in the East Hook docks.
It can be commonly be found in the Acter Industrial Park and Port Tudor areas.
Will only spawn during office hours (0800-2000)
