Thorton Galena GA40xt "Rattler"

The Thorton Galena GA40xt "Rattler" is a modified version of the Galena model, a vehicle manufactured by Thorton in.

History
The Rattler was a Galena GA40xt, which was heavily customized by the Bakkers Nomad clan. It is V's personal car if they have chosen the Nomad lifepath. V used it to escape the Arasaka convoy after smuggling into Night City, but the car was wrecked and had to abandon it.

The Rattler was eventually found by a young woman called Lana Prince. She recovered the car and transport it to the city's landfill, where she would look for a way to repair it. Lana managed to do the major advances, and the Rattler was functioning again. Due to this, a signal was sent to its original owner, V, who followed it until finding the car.

V inspected the vehicle, with the scanning stating it had minor damage with visible rust, the engine was functional and in good condition, but overall it required urgent repairs. Moments later Lana appeared. After a small talk, she told V why she was repairing the Rattler, as she needed a way of transport to leave Night City for good. Depending on what V chooses, Lana is either left with the car, in which she will eventually leave with it; or V can either take the vehicle by saying it's theirs or by buying it from Lana.

Acquisition
Only available for the Nomad lifepath, after the prologue V will lose the Rattler. During Act II, V will receive a call with the location of the vehicle, starting the quest These Boots Are Made for Walkin'. Depending on the dialogue choices the "Rattler" is recovered at the end of said quest.
