The Petrol Truck[1] is a towable tanker trailer in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
Design[]
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas[]
The Petrol Truck is designed as a long fuel cell mounted on a twin-axle chassis, having functional stands on the front and large mudguards on the rear end, as well as circular tail lights and small warning stickers. The front end cap was altered with a curved shape intended for it to fit into the Linerunner (as it has a shorter rear section compared to the other two trucks). An unusable ladder can be seen on the right-hand side of the fuel cell, along with a square cover on top and fuel extraction pipes on the rearmost section. The fuel cell spawns in a white color with a Xoomer livery.
The following vehicles can tow this trailer:
Performance[]
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas[]
The trailer is very similar to the Articulated Trailer: heavy, large and forces the player to perform wide turns in order to avoid damage. It also alters the semitrailer's handling, although it is not severe (depending on what semitrailer is used).
Being a trailer, it cannot be driven; however, it does feature its own handling line.
