Half-Life 2 Hints
How can I get the jeep onto the docks?
1 of 5: Think about how you got that bridge to cooperate.
2 of 5: Also think about how your jeep was lowered onto the sand back when you first got it.
3 of 5: The magnetic crane! It should be able to move the jeep for you.
4 of 5: Use the crane to pick up the jeep and swing it around to where you can drop it next to the first Northern Petrol building (near the door the soldiers came out of when you lowered the bridge).
5 of 5: NOTE: If you parked your jeep out of range of the crane, you'll have to go back down on foot and repark it somewhere closer, ideally between the crane and thumper.
