Towing Missions are a repeatable series of side missions in Grand Theft Auto V that involve Franklin Clinton towing cars for the LSPD Auto Impound.
Description[]
Franklin can purchase the impound after Friends Reunited and only after also completing Tonya Wiggins' Strangers and Freaks final side mission Pulling One Last Favor.
The player can approach the Towtruck in the impound. Pressing the horn button will see Franklin radio Rodney for a job request, or the player can wait for a radio dispatch message which is accepted the same way. The smaller Towtruck can also be used for Towing Missions but the player has to be in Los Santos to get the dispatcher calls. After completing a job, there is a very short delay[vague] before Rodney will dispatch another job.
Scenarios[]
Abandoned Car[]
A seemingly abandoned vehicle in a parking space like Pulling Favors. May or may not have a vagrant sleeping in it or occupant shooting up drugs in it. The drugged occupant will be aggressive when the vehicle is hooked, shooting at Franklin.
The vehicle is required to be returned to the LSPD Auto impound lot and be unhooked in the marked red zone.
Broken Down Car[]
A break down on the street like Still Pulling Favors. The driver will need to be given a ride in the Tow Truck.
The vehicle and driver will need to be delivered to an Auto Shop.
Crashed Car[]
A crash scene like Pulling One Last Favor. As the player pulls up to the scene, an Ambulance will be pulling away from the scene and two or three random NPCs will be looking at the crashed car.
The vehicle will need to be towed to an Auto Shop.
Illegally Parked Car[]
A car parked illegally like Pulling Another Favor. May be occupied by two NPCs engaging in sexual acts who will get out as soon as it is hooked.
If the car was empty, the owner can also appear from nearby and respond on foot after the vehicle is on the hook, and try to get back in the car or the cab of the Tow Truck as the player tows it away.
The vehicle is required to be returned to the LSPD Auto impound lot and be unhooked in the marked red zone.
Stalled Car[]
A stalled car which can be on a train crossing like Pulling Favors Again. The driver will need to be given a ride in the Tow Truck.
The vehicle and driver will need to be delivered to an Auto Shop.
