In GTA San Andreas, the Tow Truck gains the ability to [[Towing|tow other vehicles]]. This can be very useful for transporting locked cars, or special vehicles in the game. It can also tow other types of vehicles, including helicopters and airplanes. The Tow Truck, somewhat, resembles a [[:wp:Ford F-Series#Seventh generation (1980–1986)|seventh generation F-Series Ford Wrecker]]. | In GTA San Andreas, the Tow Truck gains the ability to [[Towing|tow other vehicles]].

The Towtruck in TLAD is depicted to be worn down, with rust damage (more visible with darker body colors) and in disrepair, and has a distorted horn, much like the "beater" variants of the [[Emperor (car)|Emperor]], [[Sabre]], and [[Vigero]]; all Towtrucks in TLAD also bear the "[[Spray Shops in GTA IV|Native American Engines]]" logos on its doors. As in GTA 2, the Towtruck is incapable of towing anything. | ||
Each variant of the tow truck sports amber flashing lights; however, these cannot be operated by the player. | Each variant of the tow truck sports amber flashing lights; however, these cannot be operated by the player. | ||
