These Boots Are Made for Walkin'

These Boots Are Made for Walkin' is a side job in. It is only available to players who chose the Nomad Lifepath, and features V regaining their car from the prologue.

Walkthrough
After visiting Rogue Amendiares at the Afterlife for the second time and making contact with Panam Palmer during Ghost Town, you will get a message from your old car Thorton Galena 80845, revealing its geolocation in the Badlands, due south of the Medeski Fuel Station, within the landfill.

Head out there and check under the hood to see someone's been tinkering with it and it's still warm - someone clearly drove the vehicle recently. As you finish checking it over though you'll be approached by a woman, Lana Prince, who's both surprised and annoyed you're messing with "her" car.

Upon asking, Lana reveals that she is desperate to leave the city and has had enough of the wastelands and sees the car as her only hope to start a new life. At this point you can choose to either:


 * Threaten her to leave (she won't fight you but will call you an asshole)
 * Pay 100 eddies to buy the car
 * Give the car to her

Depending on what you choose, Johnny Silverhand will respond accordingly, either baffled if you threatened Lana, comments on the car if you bought it back, or impressed if you gave it to Lana.

Journal Entry

 * Here you thought your old ride was totaled for good - yet here you are now. Like a phoenix from the ashes, it lives again. But how? Why now? You'd already closed that chapter of kickin' up sand with nomads out in the desert... But I mean, it'd be stupid if you didn't check it out... right? You never can underestimate the past. Because it sure as shit likes to take revenge.

Objectives

 * Scan your old car. [Optional]
 * Look under the hood.
 * Check the engine.
 * Talk to the stranger.
 * Get in your old car.

Trivia

 * The title of the job comes from the 1965 song "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'" written by Lee Hazlewood and performed by Nancy Sinatra.
