=== History ===
The Chariot Romero Hearse began production around the 1980’s. The particular model featured is presumably a 1984 model. It is used for transporting coffins to churches and cemeteries for funeral occasions.
=== 2008 ===
In October of 2008, the Chariot Romero Hearse was used during the funeral of Francis McReary, one of the McReary brothers after Niko Bellic had shot him down for trying to get him to kill Derrick McReary, his own brother.
In an ironic twist, after the Albanians attempted to crash and assassinate the attendees at the funeral, Niko and Packie McReary drove the Romero Hearse that contained the coffin Francis’ body was in and drove to Colony Island Cemetery to bury him, barely escaping the Albanians due to the vehicle’s slow performance.
It was never seen again, but it was implied that a Romero was used for Kate McReary after her death just about a month later, although her own funeral was not witnessed.
=== 2014 ===
Prior to 2014, Joel Wallace received a Romero Hearse as a gift from someone, but it is unknown who. Joel initially customized it to look fancy and stylish and had a decorative coffin in the back. When he decided to become the Scythe, Joel used the Romero for his first night out as a vigilante. However, it had poor performance due to its flashy design that gave it away easily, and its slow speed that made shaking the LSPD hard. By using maneuvers and tricks as well as knowledge of the city layout, Joel was able to escape, but the car was damaged by gunfire.
The next night, Joel fixed the car and upgraded it greatly, now having improved performance, a darker design to avoid any more attention, and swapped its San Andreas State License Plate with a North Yankton State License Place to throw off the police in tracking it. It also had pitch black body paint and specialized blue headlights. The coffin that was once used for decoration, turned into a secret weapon storage container that also carried his outfit.
By the end of August however, Joel’s Romero finally came to the end of its life when he was forced to temporarily fake his death by driving straight into an oncoming train and bailed at the last second, totaling the car. The police pulled its remains from the trainyard it got destroyed in and presumably sold the parts or crushed them. Joel replaced the vehicle with a Karin Kuruma for better speed and armor.
