Time Stamps:
00:00 - Failing "Tanker Commander" whilst obtaining the AP (All Proof) Sabre, BP (Bullet Proof) Tanker, and AP (All Proof) Petrol Truck
13:25 - Proving the BP and AP Properties and showing off the BP Tanker and AP Petrol Truck
18:05 - Proving the AP Properties and showing off the AP Sabre
This Method will work EXACTLY as shown on PS2, Xbox, PC, and Mobile since all of these Platforms/Versions allow the Method shown in the Video. It would work on the Definitive Edition, as well, however, due to the added "junk" inside of all Garages, I sort of doubt you'll be able to store the Petrol Truck properly without it vanishing. If you did manage to store it, it would likely be going across the Garage sideways, thus making no room for the Tanker. I can't be certain, though. Technically speaking, it's still even possible, but you'd have to store it in the Los Santos Impound instead of the Doherty Garage! You couldn't use the San Fierro Impound to store it because it's totally broken and can't be accessed at all!
Before you begin, make sure you have the Dillimore Safehouse purchased and a Tractor inside of it. You should also have at least two spaces free in the Doherty Garage to make things easier as well as some Sawn-Off Shotgun ammo.
If you look closely in the Video, you'll notice that I showcase CJ being able to use his body and move the AP Sabre. On other Platforms/Versions, the AP Sabre is glued to the ground while the Mission is on going and won't move until the Mission is failed. In the end, I use a Tractor since in MOST cases, everyone else on other Platforms/Versions will need one to obtain the AP Sabre, however, if you're playing on PS2 Version 1.03, you can actually just push the AP Sabre back to the Dillimore Garage using CJ's body alone. Then, go back and kill Catalina to fail the Mission and then drive the BP Tanker and AP Tanker Trailer to the Doherty Garage. No Tractor needed anymore. If you plan to use this Method (which is technically faster) on PS2, be sure to open and close the Dillimore Garage and confirm the AP Sabre before saving and reloading the game or else it will vanish!
This is the better of the two AP Sabre's to exist in the game. I recommend obtaining this one due to having more storage space after unlocking The Country. Obtaining the first one would just make you lose another space early on for another different Special Vehicle!
The Sabre and Tanker featured in the Mission have Traffic Default Colors and change upon reloading the Mission. None of them are special.
I am recording this Video on PCSX2 Version 1.6.0. Game Version is SLUS-20946 (Version 1.03) of GTA San Andreas for PS2.
