Toreno returns

Go to the ranch in Tierra Robada, where Mike Toreno surprises CJ from behind. He explains he works for a government agency, that the money and friends from the old days helped his overseas work, and that he needs a man who can do things he cannot be seen doing. He wants a truck taken from a rival agency and tells CJ to bring Cesar, but not to tell him why.

Meet Cesar

Cesar arrives at the ranch and asks CJ what he needs. A motorbike is parked nearby and a help message tells you that you must use it to get Cesar close enough to the truck. Hop on, let Cesar climb on behind, and head for the freeway. The truck is coming from Las Venturas and will enter Foster Valley over a bridge.

Catch the truck

Ride onto the freeway and catch up with the tanker. If you leave Cesar behind, the game warns you, so slow down. When you get close, pull up on the truck’s left side and hold the bike steady next to the cab door. Cesar needs a few seconds to get ready, so keep matching the truck’s speed until he jumps.

Drive it home

Cesar stops the truck. Climb into the cab and drive it to the garage marked on the map in Doherty, San Fierro. The tanker is heavy and slow to turn, so brake before bends and stay on the main roads. Park it inside the garage to finish. Destroying the tanker or the trailer fails the mission.
