Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas[]
The Articulated Trailer is depicted as a variant of the first model with a shorter container and a flat section on the rear. It features a twin-axle trailer chassis with functional stands on the front and a large bumper with red tail lights on the rear end, along with two yellow warning stickers reading "LONG VEHICLE".
Unlike the standard variant, it will always spawn blank.

Performance[]
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas[]
As it is a large trailer, it makes the truck a bit slower and also adds length, requiring wide turns to take a corner without hitting it.
Being a trailer, it cannot be driven; however, it does feature its own handling lines, which are identical to the other variants of the Articulated Trailer.

- In the beta, there was going to be a green
artict3-styled trailer intended to be pulled by the Roadtrain. This unused trailer can be found in the game files. - The trailer takes damage like any other vehicle, but during the trucking side mission, if the trailer is damaged enough, it will cause the truck attached to it to explode as well.
