The Dust
Arrive at night for bonus money, and set to opening the gas tanks on each of the four trailer homes.
Mick Zaford will ECHO you a command you can’t refuse: meet his contact Steve out in The Dust near the entrance to The Highlands for instructions on immediate retaliation. Steve is located near the New-U station, and he’s dressed to look nothing like a Zaford, so don’t be surprised when you see him. Mick pays you a bonus if you arrive at night, so consider heading over to Ellie’s Garage to wait for the sun to fall. You’ll need a Fire-based weapon to complete this mission, so use this time to get one if you’re currently without.
Ignore the Hodunks who start to shoot at you and just finish the task: shoot the leaking gas tanks with a Fire weapon, pronto!
Drive to the entrance to Hodunk Speedway and locate the gas tanks on the side of each of the four trailers. Mick wants you to open each of the tanks to create a leak, then open fire on them to blow the trailers to bits. Yes, this will cause tremendous damage and claim numerous lives, but it’s a small price to pay for escalating the clan war. Though it’s possible to open and shoot each tank one by one, the Hodunks are going to wake from their sleep and try to defend their property as soon as the first tank is detonated. Make things easier for yourself by sneaking around and opening all four gas tanks first, then set about detonating them with your Fire weapon. Ignore any Hodunks who try to shoot at you, and simply drive back across The Dust to Steve to turn in.
