Wrecked Highwayman

	For the vehicle in Fallout 2, see Highwayman (Fallout 2).

The Wrecked Highwayman is a location in the Mojave Wasteland in Fallout: New Vegas. Located northwest of Snyder Prospector Camp and southwest of Clark Field, just off of Highway 95.

Background

Publications

“Close to Clark Field [6.07] on the south side of the 95 where Bloatflies and Bighorners graze uneasily, there’s the remains of an old perambulator: The open trunk has a number of stolen items (listed below), and usually a Power Fist inside the Footlocker.”— Fallout: New Vegas Official Game Guide/Tour of the Mojave Wasteland

Layout

The location consists of the wreck of a Highwayman, with the remains of such sinking into the ground. Only the trunk of the car is visible. A Footlocker can be found within the open trunk, containing random loot in addition to Microfusion Cells, Energy Cells, some Scrap Metal, and a Sunset Sarsaparilla Star Bottle Cap.

Loot

Sunset Sarsaparilla Star Bottle Cap - In the trunk.

Notes

Upon finding the Wrecked Highwayman, "Gold Slouch" from the Fallout 2 soundtrack will begin to play.

Appearances

The Wrecked Highwayman appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

Behind the scenes

The wrecked Highwayman planned for Van Buren would have had a trunk full of microfusion cells and a Tanker FOB.^[1] Chris Avellone also expanded upon this stating it was just the trunk, reflecting the bug commonly seen in Fallout 2.^[2]
