The Pony, as depicted in GTA III.

The Pony is a goods van that made its first appearance in Grand Theft Auto III and went on to feature in all of the following games of the GTA III Era.

Overview

The Pony is a medium sized van capable of carrying four passengers (two in the front, two in the back). The vehicle has reasonable speed for what it is, but it's handling suffers from it's very stiff suspension setup which makes the vehicle unstable on bumpy roads. It can be found driving around the industrial areas of the cities in which it appears.

Name confusion

There is some confusion over the differences between some of the vans in the series - in particular the Pony and the Rumpo, as the vehicles that appear under those names in GTA III are renamed in GTA: Vice City. In GTA III: The Rumpo looks almost identical to the van known as the Burrito in subsequent games, while the Pony is a larger van with an enlarged roof. In GTA: Vice City and GTA: San Andreas, however, the Pony is redesigned with a lower roof, and this (now seperate) tall-roof design is renamed the Rumpo, while the van known as the Rumpo in GTA III was given an entirely new name, Burrito.
