Tanker
The Tanker is a large tanker truck that first appeared in Grand Theft Auto 1. It is one of the strongest vehicles in the game, being able to withstand a lot of damage. Surprisingly, it has the highest top speed - if driven on a staight road, for long enough, it will keep picking up speed - much like the Bus and Coach. Despite it being a large truck, the Tank is able to drive over it.
It later appeared in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas with a semi-cab design. It is one of the more popular of the three trucks in San Andreas, being encountered more than any of the others. After an examination of internal files, it is clearly shown that this truck is the slowest of all three, however, it has better acceleration than the Linerunner. Finally, this truck like all the others can attach a trailer in San Andreas, making the experience even better.
It also appeared in Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars. It spawns with the trailer already attached, and the trailer can't be detached.
