Vault Truck Escape
Bravado Bison dual-rear-axle truck with vault attached, dragged through Vice City. Fast Five inspired. Police helicopter pursuit.
The Job
Trailer 2 confirms this one outright (T2: 2:35-2:50), so treat it as real, not a leak whisper: a Bravado Bison dual-rear-axle truck with a vault chained to the back, dragged down a Vice City highway under a police helicopter pursuit. The Fast Five lineage is obvious, and that framing tells you how it plays. This is a pure escape-sequence, loud only, no version where you sneak it out. The record lists two crew roles, driver and gunner, which reads as a hard split: one keeps the rig moving and ahead of the chase, one works the helicopters and SWAT off your tail. The 6-star response with helicopters and SWAT is the whole difficulty curve here, this is a sustained running fight over a 10-15 minute window, not a setpiece you burst through. Inference: payout sits in the GTA$1M-2M band because the value is the haul already secured (the vault), so you are being paid for surviving the heat rather than cracking anything. Reward scales with how clean the exfil is.
Estimated GTA$1M-2M reflects a major escape-sequence where the score is already in hand, so the pay is risk-for-survival under a 6-star chase rather than a take that grows with finesse. Treat both ends as estimates.

Operator Tips
- Run it two-up: a dedicated driver to keep the Bison rolling and a dedicated gunner to fight off helicopters and SWAT, the record splits the labor for a reason
- Plan for a sustained running fight, not a sprint, 6 stars with air support means the heat does not drop until you break line of sight over the full 10-15 min
- Budget for the dual-rear-axle truck handling, the vault drag means weight and momentum, so brake and corner early on the Vice City highway
- Prioritize the gunner on the police helicopter first, air pursuit is what keeps respawning your stars and tracking you through cover
- Go in loud and committed, there is no stealth fallback here, the only approach on record is loud
FAQ
How much does Vault Truck Escape pay?
Estimated GTA$1M-2M, treated as a range, not a confirmed figure. As a major escape-sequence the score is already secured (the vault), so the payout reflects surviving the chase rather than a take that grows with skill.
What crew do I need?
Two roles per the record: a driver and a gunner. The driver keeps the dual-rear-axle Bison and its vault moving down the Vice City highway, the gunner handles the helicopters and SWAT during the pursuit.
Can I do it solo or stealth?
No stealth, the only approach on record is loud, this is an open running chase with a police helicopter on you. Solo is not confirmed, the record lists driver and gunner as separate roles, so plan for a two-person split.
