The '''Trashmaster''' is a recurring garbage truck. It succeeds the [[Garbage Truck]] from [[Grand Theft Auto 2]], the first garbage truck to be featured in the series.


The '''Trashmaster''' is a recurring garbage truck appearing in the following games:

As with most other utility/industrial vehicles in the [[Grand Theft Auto]] series, the Trashmaster has no functional purpose, with the exception of GTA Liberty City Stories; it has a side mission entitled "[[Trash Dash]]", where the player must drive a Trashmaster around the city, picking up garbage in a [[Taxi|Taxi mission]] style way.

It essentially succeeds the [[Garbage Truck]] from [[Grand Theft Auto 2]], the first garbage truck to be featured in the series.


== Description ==
It is one of the slowest and least maneuverable vehicles in the series, and in GTA III, it has the lowest point value when destroyed, 10; the Trashmaster in GTA San Andreas however is notably faster and emits a different engine noise compared to the other GTA III era games. Despite its shortfalls, the Trashmaster tends to be one of the heaviest and most durable trucks available in the game. In GTA IV, its top speed reaches 71 mph (115 km/h).

Despite its shortfalls, the Trashmaster tends to be one of the heaviest and hardiest trucks available in the game.


The Trashmater is commonly found driving in the industrial sections of each city. The Trashmaster in GTA IV only spawns in the early hours of the morning; it also has a functioning back door, although it can only be operated during the mission [[Taking in the Trash]], where [[Niko Bellic]] must drive to waypoints, picking up diamond-filled trash bags along the way.
In GTA IV, the Trashmaster's trash crusher can also be operated by tapping the handbrake button. This comes into play during the mission "[[Taking in the Trash]]"; the men the player is working with will only throw targeted trash bags containing [[diamonds]] into the truck when the crusher is open. However, the player is not told the control for operating the crusher.

The Trashmaster is a recurring garbage truck. It succeeds the Garbage Truck from Grand Theft Auto 2, the first garbage truck to be featured in the series.

Description

As with most other utility/industrial vehicles in the Grand Theft Auto series, the Trashmaster has no functional purpose, with the exception of GTA Liberty City Stories; it has a side mission entitled "Trash Dash", where the player must drive a Trashmaster around the city, picking up garbage in a Taxi mission style way.

It is one of the slowest and least maneuverable vehicles in the series, and in GTA III, it has the lowest point value when destroyed, 10; the Trashmaster in GTA San Andreas however is notably faster and emits a different engine noise compared to the other GTA III era games. Despite its shortfalls, the Trashmaster tends to be one of the heaviest and most durable trucks available in the game. In GTA IV, its top speed reaches 71 mph (115 km/h).

In GTA IV, the Trashmaster's trash crusher can also be operated by tapping the handbrake button. This comes into play during the mission "Taking in the Trash"; the men the player is working with will only throw targeted trash bags containing diamonds into the truck when the crusher is open. However, the player is not told the control for operating the crusher.

Design

Throughout the games, its appearance has remained mostly the same, with the exception of the front cab, which switches around from flat cab-over design to a standard cab in-between the games.

In GTA III and GTA Liberty City Stories, the Trashmaster resembles a Mack MR. In GTA Vice City, GTA San Andreas, and GTA Vice City Stories it has a cab similar to the Yankee, but the grille is slightly altered, GTA San Andreas's version also has different headlights, added turning signals, bears Sanitary Andreas logos.

The GTA IV rendition is the most realistic yet, with two LSD workers hanging on the back (who will run away if the vehicle is carjacked), as well as various other details. It closely resembles a DSNY (Department of Sanitation New York) Mack LE Refuse Collection Truck but the front is slightly altered. The vehicle is usually only seen driving around in the overnight hours.

The GTA V rendition is vastly unaltered from GTA IV, except for the taillights that now have a different shape.

Trivia

  • A GTA III style Trashmaster appears in Rockstar North's Manhunt 2.
