Fire Trucks also have lots of hitting power. They can send smaller vehicles flying and will make short work of getting through [[Enforcer]] baricades. When ramming, it is best that you get the Fire Truck to top speed for maximum hitting power. Most vehicles can be push out of the way by the Fire Truck.

In GTA San Andreas, in addition to the standard Fire Truck, a second Fire Truck variant exists, equipped with a ladder but not a water cannon; this variant does not allow the player to trigger the firefighting side-mission nor does it have sirens. The ladder variant of the Fire Truck is prominently featured during the second half of the mission "[[End of the Line]]", during which it is bulletproof, fireproof, explosion-proof and even damage-proof (much like the [[Feltzer]] pursuing the Fire Truck), but is unobtainable. Also, it is worth noting that the ladder version of the fire truck CAN be resprayed at a Pay N' Spray.

Also, it is worth noting that the ladder version of the fire truck IS enabled to use the [[Pay N' Spray]] although nothing happens except for the vehicle getting repaired.
