In GTA IV, the [[Brute]] Bus resembles an [[:wp:Orion International#Orion V|Orion V CNG]] (with an evenly angled windshield). Its slanted side windows resemble those of the old [[wikipedia:GM New Look (Fishbowl) Bus|GM New Look Bus]] or the [[:wp:Flxible New Look bus|Flxible New Look bus]], although they are more modern in style. When entering the Bus, walking and seating animations are actually shown, unlike in previous games, since the windows are now transparent. | In GTA IV, the [[Brute]] Bus resembles an [[:wp:Orion International#Orion V|Orion V CNG]] (with an evenly angled windshield).

When entering the Bus, walking and seating animations are actually shown, unlike in previous games, since the windows are now transparent. The Bus only allows four passengers (in addition to the driver) to travel in the vehicle, however this is still more than any other vehicle available to the player. The buses, which fall under the management of [[Liberty City Transport Authority]] (LTA), are further stamped with "The Fox" labels, in line with the LTA's association of the [[Skycar|Liberty City's tramway]] with another animal ("The Pigeon"). | ||
The Bus remains a rare sight in the city. Despite the presence of several bus stops around the city, the Bus is commonly seen only on the roads near [[Francis International Airport in GTA IV Era|Francis International Airport]], and parked in [[Star Junction]]. The Bus will sometimes appear during GTA IV's mission chase sequences as part of set pieces, acting as an obstacle to increase the difficulty of the mission (for example, [[Brucie Kibbutz|Brucie's]] mission [[Search and Delete]]). | The Bus remains a rare sight in the city.

The Bus finds its own perfect purpose during [[Race#GTA Race|GTA Races]] set in [[Star Junction]]. The Bus can easily block off a path while a novice picks off cars, driver by driver, resulting in everyone switching to [[Faggio|Faggios]], which provide no cover whatsoever for the rider and cannot move buses at all, but are nimble enough to move around buses. | The Bus finds its own perfect purpose during [[Race#GTA Race|GTA Races]] set in [[Star Junction]].

The Bus is one of the only vehicles in the game that can be stolen without triggering a wanted level, in part because they are always unlocked. | |||
