T-Ray

T-Ray is the manager of the Chop Shop in Fallout 2. He serves as the leader of a small band of mechanics working for Mr. Bishop in New Reno.

Interactions with the player character
T-Ray is responsible for the theft of chosen one's Highwayman during the course of the Recover your stolen car quest. The player must locate the Chop Shop and speak with, or kill, T-Ray to retrieve the car and finish this quest.

If the player's character has an intelligence of less than 4 he/she cannot receive vehicle upgrades from T-Ray and is forced to either kill everyone in the Chop Shop or steal the Highwayman to retrieve his/her car. This can be circumvented through the use of Mentats.

Female characters may sleep with T-Ray to receive the car and/or trunk upgrade for free, but if the player sleeps with T-Ray too many times too quickly T-Ray may blow up.

Other interactions
Assuming the player does not kill T-Ray in the process of recovering the Highwayman, T-Ray can be contracted to perform upgrades on the player's car. Initially the only upgrade available is increased trunk space for $500 ($300 if the player passes a Barter check), however, upon completion of the game's main story line the player may opt to have T-Ray install grav plates to significantly reduce the car's fuel consumption.
