7. Fire is your friend when facing Rhinos

You can hammer the things with weaponry without scratching the darn things, but they fry fairly quickly. Try either the Molotov cocktails or the flamethrower for a quick-n-crispy treat!


Edited for clarification

11. Fireproof CJ made the "Green Sabre" mission a cakewalk.
All I had to do was lob Molotovs at the Ballas.

12. I got up to Vigilante level 50 on Vice
using the Rhino. All I had to do was roam around the airport blasting crooks.

14. Maybe they're using unarmored Iraq war surplus?
Can you get an upgrade kit for your rhino? You might have to make do with sandbags and plywood...
