Any garage bay restores one from a truck frame tag. There is nothing to learn first.

Where to find it

No derelict one waits in the world: every one on the road was restored from a frame tag at a garage.

Fuel

Fuel tank

23.8 gal

Fuel use

x1.4 a standard car

Fuel economy

About 12 mpg

Range on a tank

About 283 miles of mixed driving

A tank at full revs

About 37 minutes

A full tank lasts the same time in any vehicle with the same fuel use, so a bigger tank goes further. Every gas station is dry: see Fuel for siphoning, cans and homemade fuel.

Keys and starting

Hold Y to crank it. A healthy engine has a 72% chance to catch each second you hold it.

Crank for 6 seconds without a start and it floods, and it will not catch for 20 seconds.

Cranking drains the battery: under 10% the starter only clicks. A push or a jump start gets it going.

It comes with its own key, a Vehicle Key. Anyone holding it can lock, unlock and start it, and the fob reaches 80 ft. A copy is cut at a workbench from a Key Blank with Engineering 12 and a toolkit or pliers.

Without the key, hotwire it from the driver's seat with a Screwdriver Set and a Hotwire Kit. In this class 20% of the sweep catches at Engineering 0, a little more as you learn. A failed try can set off its alarm, heard about 390 ft away.

Lose it and the recovery crew tows it to a garage for 260 Scrip plus about 40 Scrip a mile.
