Spand Express (truck)

The Spand Express is a delivery truck in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
The Spand Express is a variant of the Mule, displaying noticeable differences to the front fascia and a Spand Express delivery company livery. It is available in 6 different color schemes.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
Although the Spand Express looks identical to the Mule, its weight has been reduced (2400 kgs. vs 3500 kgs.), has a slighty increased top speed (150 km/h, compared to the Mule's top speed of 140 km/h) and a better acceleration. Its drivetrain is rearranged into a front wheel drive, opposed to the Mule's rear wheel drive.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

 * Jury Fury - One of the jurors will attempt to escape in their car after encountering Tommy, but consequently crashes into a Spand Express.
 * Riot - Tommy has to destroy the marked Spand Express trucks, after starting a riot with the Spand Express workers at their HQ.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
The Spand Express truck is notably rare, since it cannot be seen driving around the city, unlike the Mule. However, there are two specific opportunities to aquire a Spand Express, for the player to store in a garage:


 * During the mission Jury Fury. After intimidating the juror at Ocean Beach, the truck will stay on the street indefinitely. The player can either take it to intimidate the other juror at Vice Point, or after completing the mission (if the juror at Vice Point was intimidated first).
 * During the mission Riot, there will be three Spand Express' parked inside the Spand Express HQ lockup; first destroy the two mission-marked Spand Express trucks (next to the exploding barrel), then simply keep the remaining truck for yourself. Alternatively, if you want a specific color: destroy at least two of the trucks and explode the third inside a player-owned garage. The mission will complete and the Spand Express will be restored from the wreckage, once the garage door closes and reopens.

Trivia

 * Spand Express (SpandEx) is based on FedEx Express, a non-fictional world delivery company.
 * The Spand Express name and tagline allude to 'Spandex'; a real synthetic fibre with a variety of uses.
