The Wrecker is a tow truck in Driver Parallel Lines and Driver 76.

Design[]

The Wrecker is a medium-duty tow truck. Its cab is loosely based around a seventh generation (1984) Ford F-350, with influence from the third generation (1972) Chevrolet C40. The body is relatively high up, and the truck sports large wheels with high-profile tires, and dual wheels on the rear to support the excess towing weight.

The truck features amber warning lights mounted on the rear platform, similar to the LED-style lights featured on the M700 and SWAT Van. The lights can be activated by pressing the horn button "CTRL" / Left-stick button (Xbox) / L3 (PlayStation 2). Like the Refuse Truck and Security Van (as well as the Prison Van and SWAT Van on the Xbox and PlayStation 2 versions), the vehicle does not posses a siren, so the lights are activated with a single horn press.

Behind the cab is the towing device. Accompanying it, surrounding storage boxes and the lightbar platform directly behind the cab's rear window.

The truck uses a tow-arm system which has a bumper-bar attachment hooked onto it. When reversing up to the front bumper of vehicles that can be towed, the bar attaches to the vehicle's front bumper, lifting it up to the appropriate height. No motorcycles or commercial vehicles (with the exception of the Delivery Van) can be towed by the Wrecker. The Wrecker is also unable to tow another Wrecker.

The truck has average top speeds, but can struggle to reach high speeds with its heavy parts on the rear, and can take even longer with vehicles attached.

Trivia[]

  • "Wrecker" is a slang term for tow truck.
  • In Driver 76, Bodywork 1 has the words "Jay's Auto Shop" instead of "Ray's Auto Shop", as Ray's Autos didn't exist yet during the game's events.
