After an examination of internal files, it is clearly shown that the Tanker in GTA San Andreas is the slowest of all three but it has better acceleration than the [[Linerunner]]. In-game gameplay, however, has the truck performing better than the Linerunner, with an unusually better top speed of about 130 km/h (80 mph), as well as superior acceleration and hill climbing power. Its lower body height also makes it less vulnerable to rollovers than the Linerunner. | After an examination of internal files, it is clearly shown that the Tanker in GTA San Andreas is the slowest of all three but it has better acceleration than the [[Linerunner]].

In Chinatown Wars, the Tanker's long length and large weight makes the vehicle less than suitable for intensive driving, faring poorly in top speed and acceleration, as well as poor cornering (often requiring large turning radius | In GTA Chinatown Wars, the Tanker's long length and large weight makes the vehicle less than suitable for intensive driving, faring poorly in top speed and acceleration, as well as poor cornering (often requiring a large turning radius) and braking. An interesting new feature is the ability for the trailer to leak fuel, introduced to the player in the mission [[Trail Blazer]]. If the end of the vehicle is shot, a line of flaming fuel will spout from the trailer, setting alight any other vehicle the player drives past. Over time, the flame gets closer to the trailer, though the player can gain themselves more time by driving quickly. If the flame reaches the end of the trailer, the trailer itself is set on fire, and after a short while it will blow up dramatically, usually killing the player and harming anyone else near the vehicle. | ||
