Robbing Armored Trucks in Saints Row

Armored Trucks drop their payload when they’re destroyed. This means that all you technically need to do to rob an Armored Truck in Saints Row is to destroy it. However, Armored Trucks can take a serious beating, so there is a method to make robbing them a lot easier.

Armored Trucks are highlighted on the minimap, making finding them a lot easier. The police will arrive when you threaten an Armored Truck, so trying to blow them up on the spot usually isn’t a good idea. Not only that, but they can take several hits from the most powerful weapons in the game and keep driving, so the truck is likely to get away before you can destroy it.

Therefore, the best way to rob an Armored Truck is to first kill the driver. Usually, Armored Trucks are stationary when they spawn in, giving you a chance to take the driver out easily.

Once the driver is dead, hop into the car and start driving. You will have to lose your police pursuers with some creative driving, but thankfully the Armored Truck’s increased durability will allow you to take the car off-road and over cliffs without much punishment.

Once you lose the cops, all you have to do is destroy the truck, and the payload is yours! They should take about 3 RPG shots to destroy, but without police nearby you can take your time creatively tearing the car apart to get to the cash inside.

That’s everything you need to know to rob Armored Trucks in Saints Row! If you liked this guide and want to see more, be sure to leave a comment below and check out our other gaming guides and articles.
