The Gang Burrito is a gang variant of the Burrito van featured in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, The Lost and Damned, Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online. It is manufactured by Declasse in the HD Universe.
Design[]
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City[]
Much like the Hoods Rumpo XL in Grand Theft Auto III, the Grand Theft Auto: Vice City rendition of the Gang Burrito is essentially a Burrito belonging to the Streetwannabe's, with a two-tone red and gray paint-job, graffiti on the side panels, side exhausts, roof-mounted lights, a heightened rear spoiler, extended front splitter and wheel arches, and a different grille design (vertical slats instead of a grid). In later versions of the game, most notably the 10th Anniversary version, the graffiti is replaced by more professional artwork. The Gang Burrito is sometimes seen with a small brown teddy bear affixed to the grille or roof; the roof-mounted teddy bears have a hockey mask.
The Lost and Damned[]
As before, the The Lost and Damned rendition of the Gang Burrito is adapted from the game's Burrito van, thus is made by Declasse. As the Burrito was redesigned to lack its predecessors' sporty design, TLAD's Gang Burrito reinstates some of these elements to distinguish itself from the conventional GTA IV model.
The Gang Burrito's modifications include additional mud guards, a modified front bumper, roof-mounted lights and antennae, a rear spoiler, side exhausts, wider tires, billet grilles over its headlights and tail lights, a bull-bar, and the Angels of Death insignia on the side panels and the rear, as well as an AOD plate on the rear bumper, where a standard license plate would be.
The Gang Burrito features one of several faded dark colors and is rusting in places, with a secondary color in the hood and part of its roof, where the mounted lights and antennae are seen.
Grand Theft Auto V and Online[]
The Gang Burrito returns to Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online. While its body shape carries over from The Lost and Damned, the vehicle is now in noticeably better condition, lacking the rusted beater appearance it had in TLAD. The Gang Burrito is now used by The Lost MC, instead of the Angels of Death.
The vehicle now uses a black body with red rims and a red aileron, along with the Lost MC insignia on either sides and the driver-side rear door. Additionally, this version has four functional roof lights.
Performance[]
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City[]
Unlike the regular Burrito, the Gang Burrito has an all-wheel-drive layout, giving it more grip and slightly faster acceleration. The "3-wheel" trick that the regular Burrito can perform has been toned down and will only happen during sustained cornering or by swerving in one direction before quickly swerving into the opposite direction.
As the regular Burrito already has impressive performance for a van, the changes of the Gang Burrito make it the fastest van in the game.
The Gang Burrito has the same engine sound as the Infernus, Banshee, Phoenix, Love Fist, and the Deluxo.

The Lost and Damned[]
Performance-wise, the Gang Burrito is poor, boasting an only average top speed with moderately poor acceleration, as well as a boasted torque that helps more to make the van difficult to control. Its lack of grip on the road, possibly attributed to its small tires, may also explain its poor steering. The engine has a large amount of power and the vehicle sometimes wheelspins upon rough set-offs, especially on rough terrain, something not present on the regular Burrito in GTA IV. In terms of acceleration, the Burrito proves poorly, but a minor improvement from the regular Burrito. The exhaust configuration appears to be a twin-exit, twin exhausts mounted down the sides of the van.
The Gang Burrito is powered by a single cam Inline-4 laid transversely, coupled to a 5-speed gearbox in a rear-wheel drive configuration. The engine sound appears to be similar to its civilian counterpart, but emits a louder, rougher engine noise, indicating the van's engine has either been tune or modified, or has suffered from wear and tear.

Grand Theft Auto V and Online[]
The Gang Burrito performs much better than it did in its predecessor. Although steering is not among the best in the game, the Gang Burrito remains as the fastest van in GTA V, and a good vehicle all around. Handling is much improved, as well as acceleration and top speed. It can seat four people, two of which will enter from the back doors and will be able to shoot from there, making it deadly for other cars to follow a Gang Burrito with passengers in the rear.

- One can be spawned with a cheat code.
- There is a completely black version and a white hood version. The white hood can be obtained in the mission It's War and the black version can be obtained next to the Angels of Death Clubhouse in the mission Action/Reaction, but it is unknown if the opened black version is a bug.
- The mission Hit the Pipe is a great opportunity to obtain this vehicle. Destroy two of the three marked Gang Burritos, but only kill the driver and passenger of the final one. Take the van to a Pay 'n' Spray and shoot it until it catches fire. Once this happens, and the mission completes, simply drive the van into the garage to get it repaired.

Trivia[]
General[]
- The lights mounted above the windshield and the rear spoiler give the vehicle a resemblance to the van driven by B.A. Baracus in The A-Team, which was a popular TV show created by Stephen J. Cannell in the 1980s. In GTA V, the van gives more resemblance with the exact colors, looking more like this.
- The vehicle is similiar to the Hoods Rumpo XL, as both cars are beater variants of their normal counterpart, both are used by gangs and both sport graffiti's on the sides.
The Lost and Damned[]
- A hint to the cheat code of spawning the Burrito, is located inside the clubhouse (near the toilet) on a poster claiming it is for sale.
- The Gang Burrito does not have a legitimate license plate. The same applies to the Lost Slamvan.
- The Gang Burrito shares its bull bar with the Ambulance and its exhaust pipes with the Jamaican Voodoo (although the pipes are mounted side-by-side instead of being vertically stacked).
Grand Theft Auto V[]
- Although the Gang Burrito is based on the first generation Burrito, its dashboard uses the digital dial set used on the second generation model.
