This caused a demand for armored vehicles. The passengers also had bodyguards with them. It's a scary world. The idea of a storm chasing vehicle is much more appealing. More and more people are willing to risk their lives to get videos of storms. This might survive a tornado, hurricane or flood.Peghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03309987428045299558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-71758330157112080302016-06-10T12:28:47.135-05:002016-06-10T12:28:47.135-05:00These are the kinds of vehicles that police depart...These are the kinds of vehicles that police departments have around here that are used by our govt.
