U4GM's GTA 5 Guide to Towing the Lucky Plucker SUV

Andrew736

Franklin's second towing shift with Tonya, "Pulling Another Favor," feels less like a race and more like an awkward day at work. For players browsing GTA 5 Accounts, it is a good reminder that Los Santos has plenty to do beyond fast cars and shoot-outs. Tonya needs help because JB has missed another shift at the impound yard, so Franklin agrees to cover for him. Meet her in Davis, then get both of you over to the LSPD Auto Impound in Rancho. Any ride will do for the trip there, though a bike can make the journey feel a bit more lively.

Getting the truck moving

At the yard, hop into the old tow truck and give Tonya a moment to climb into the passenger seat. Don't pull away too soon. The dispatch call only comes through once she's settled. The job points you toward Little Seoul, where an SUV has been left in a disabled parking space outside Lucky Plucker. It sounds simple, but this truck isn't built for quick moves. It pulls slowly, takes its time through turns, and doesn't stop on a dime. If you drive it like Franklin's usual cars, you'll feel the difference right away.

Hooking the SUV

Pull into the restaurant lot carefully. The SUV is sitting near the front entrance, so there's not much room to line things up. Reverse until the truck's rear is square with the SUV's bumper, then lower the towing arm. A neat approach saves a lot of trouble once you're back on the road. Before heading out, it helps to keep a few basics in mind.

Leave extra room before making a turn.
Brake early at lights and busy crossings.
Keep the SUV lined up behind the truck.
Watch Tonya when moving around the impound yard.

Taking it back across town

With the SUV attached, the return drive becomes the real job. The truck feels longer, heavier, and less forgiving. Corners that looked easy on the way over now need a wider path. Try not to cut across lanes, especially when traffic builds up near junctions. A sudden stop can send the towed vehicle swinging out behind you, and street furniture can catch it when you least expect it. There's no prize for getting back quickly, so take the calmer route if the roads are packed.

Dropping off without trouble

Back at Rancho, guide the truck into the marked red unloading area and lower the SUV onto the pavement. Positioning matters, so ease forward and back until the vehicle sits where it should. Tonya's safety matters just as much. If she gets hit while walking nearby, or the truck takes a major crash, the shift ends and you're sent back to the start. Players who enjoy the everyday side of Los Santos through GTA 5 Modded Accounts may find this mission oddly satisfying: slow driving, careful parking, then a clean handoff.
