The '''Bulldozer''', as known as the '''Dozer''' in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], is a heavy earth-moving vehicle in GTA San Andreas, [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars]]. | |||
==GTA | == Design == | ||
=== GTA San Andreas — GTA Vice City Stories === | |||
The Dozer in GTA San Andreas is designed as a four-wheel [[wp:Loader (equipment)|front loader]], being stamped with a [[DUDE]] logo in association with the manufacturer of heavy machinery. Obviously, the vehicle is devoided of any luxuries, and is depicted with an open driver compartment with no doors, leaving the player vulnerable to being pull out of the vehicle by hostile NPCs. The Dozer is also equipped with an adjustable ram. It is mainly used for the [[Quarry]] side-mission. | |||
The Bulldozer in GTA Vice City Stories assumes a significantly different appearance, while retaining the front loader design of the previous rendition. The Bulldozer is longer than the Dozer, and features a closed cab complete with doors. However, the Bulldozer's new "scooping" ram is not adjustable. Its engine sound is similar to sports cars like the [[Infernus]] or the [[Cheetah]]. | |||

GTA Chinatown War's Bulldozer design is actually similar to the GTA Vice City Stories rendition, down to the body design and size. | |||
== Performance == | |||
=== GTA San Andreas — GTA Vice City Stories === | |||
For GTA San Andreas, the Dozer is very large and heavy, and therefore has a slow top speed; the Dozer also features rear wheel steering, meaning that it is pushed into turns instead of pulled, making for a very small turning radius, although this also makes the Dozer more vulnerable to tailspins if in higher speeds. Its movable ram can be used to plowed through a bunch of other cars is no problem for this vehicle; as its weight and torque make it nearly unstoppable. | |||
The GTA Vice City rendition retains the same large size and heavy weight, but features front wheel drive instead, resulting in the vehicle suffering from poor cornering and requiring a larger turning radius. However, the vehicle is peculiar in that while its acceleration is poor, the Bulldozer can achieve moderately good top speeds along straightaways. While lacking a movable ram, it is good for ramming vehicles nonetheless. | |||
=== GTA Chinatown Wars === | |||
The GTA Chinatown Wars rendition of the Bulldozer suffers the same problems as the GTA Vice City Stories rendition, being terrible in steering and thus being generally maneuverable in tight environments; its ram is also unmovable. Its top speed receives a minor reduction, but its acceleration remains poor. Being large and heavy, however, the Bulldozer is durable and effective in [[Wanted Level in GTA Chinatown Wars|disabling police cars]] with a few minor hits. | |||
