Bear

The Bear is a vehicle in Saints Row 2, Saints Row: The Third and Saints Row IV. It appears in Saints Row: Gat out of Hell as Soul in One.
==Overview==
The Bear is an (APC) used by law enforcement and is sometimes erroneously referred to as a tank. It is used by SWAT, Ultor and SNG who use it to pursue Playa in addition to setting up road blocks. They generally appear at four-star Notoriety level.
It has only two doors (one in the left side and other in the rear) but allows 6 passengers. In all games it is equipped with a siren, red/blue lights and a mounted machine gun. In Saints Row: The Third and onwards, the Bear gains additional changes, including a more prominent wheelbase, grilled headlights and some accesories on the sides.
The version used in New Hades is named "Soul in One", and has a black and red colour scheme, with more defenses on the front end and red horns surrounding the vehicle.
==Performance==
The Bear's handling is not the best, but it is fast in addition to being strong enough to take multiple direct missile hits. Apart from the destructive force, enough for smashing through cars with ease, the Bear features a Mounted .50 cal machine gun. In Co-op, the passenger takes control of the gun. The Bear is most useful for;
*Activities/Diversions like Snatch, Drug Trafficking, Drive-by, Gang Operation, Hitman/Assassination and Survival challenges.
*Acquiring weapons that are not yet available at Friendly Fire by killing and looting opponents at a high Notoriety level.
*Acquiring other vehicles like the Challenger tank or the FBI SUV that only spawn at a high Notoriety level.
