GTA SA DE Special Vehicles - AP Fire Truck (Ladder Variant) [8-Ball Bomb Method]

Welcome to the Special Vehicles List for GTA San Andreas - Definitive Edition (PC version). In this video I show how to get a AP Fire Truck (Ladder Variant) [8-Ball Bomb Method] by "Failing the Mission" + Wasted "End of the
Line (Part 3)" given by Sweet.

The mission "End of the Line" is divided into 3 Parts:
Part 1: Heading to Smoke's Fortress
Part 2: Escaping from the Smoke's Fortress
Part 3: Tenpenny's Chase
If you Fail the Mission
AFTER reaching Part 3 (when Tenpenny's Chase starts), when you restart the mission it will start
from Part 3 and not from the beginning. Starting the mission from Part 3 does NOT ADD any "Mission
Attempt" and although the AP Fire Truck requires a Mission Failed + Wasted, ONLY the WASTE will AFFECT your Stats.

AP (All-proof): Immune to any damage (Bullets, Explosions, Hits, Fire and Melee).

There is an ALTERNATIVE METHOD to obtain the AP Fire Truck using the Ammu-Nation Menu instead of an 8-Ball Bomb:    • GTA SA DE Special Vehicles - AP Fire ...  

Four more Special Vehicles can be obtained in the "End of the Line" mission:
AP/VEC2 Greenwood & Unique/BP/FP S.W.A.T. (Part 1):    • GTA SA DE SV - AP/VEC2 Arctic White "...  
AP/VEC2 Light Blue Grey Feltzer (Part 3):    • GTA SA DE Special Vehicles - AP/VEC2 ...  
EP/FP Tornado (Part 3):    • GTA SA DE Special Vehicles - EP/FP To...  

You will need to have a PARACHUTE and have some WEAPON THAT ALLOWS you to KILL CJ before start mission.


Start the mission Start the mission and chase Tenpenny. After Tenpenny's Fire Truck crosses Jefferson alley, OVERTAKE IT and KEEP IT BEHIND you until the end of the Idlewood Bridge. After crossing the Idlewood Bridge, deviate from Tenpenny's route and HEAD to the 8-Ball Autos KEEPING the
Fire Truck ON CAMERA to avoid Failing the Mission. There are at least two more routes to the 8-Ball Autos. Enter the vehicle into the 8-Ball Autos and then RETURN to the Tenpenny's Fire Truck route always KEEPING IT in the camera.

ARM the vehicle BOMB shortly AFTER the cop starts stamping Sweet's fingers. Then, CATCH Sweet and GET OUT of
the vehicle before it explodes. The bomb must explode AFTER catching Sweet and BEFORE the cutscene starts. After destroying the vehicle, head to the AP Fire Truck's position. GET INTO the AP Fire
Truck through the PASSENGER DOOR and drive it to a LARGE GARAGE (don't use the Impound).

If you EXIT A VEHICLE with the DOORS LOCKED, in the Definitive Edition CJ will ALWAYS
close the door and can NEVER GET BACK IN. The only way to keep the door open is
to get out of the vehicle while it is running or hold the passenger door open.

Enter the AP Fire Truck into the garage, DESTROY IT by HITTING IT MELEE with the PARACHUTE
equipped and KILL CJ to Fail the Mission before the Wreck disappears. Before destroying the AP Fire
Truck I recommend LOWERING CJ's HEALTH as much as possible so that he dies with the explosion.

With this same method you can obtain the AP/VEC2 Light Blue Grey Feltzer along with the
AP Fire Truck, but it does not make sense to do so since obtaining them separately WILL NOT
ADD more "Mission Attempts" to your Stats and it is easier to obtain them separately.

Unlike normal Fire Trucks, the Ladder Variant has no visible damage to the bumper and doors. The only visible
damage is the headlights (when you break them) and that will be the only place where the DP (Damage-proof)
property will be visible. The MP (Melee-proof) property will not be visible but will be effective.

Although AP (All-proof) are immune to any damage, they can be destroyed in
4 ways: turning it over, melee hitting it with a parachute equipped, entering
the vehicle when CJ is on fire or equipping it and activating a 8-Ball Bomb.
