    Cool vid! A list of equipment involved should have been in the video. Or maybe in a part two video perhaps??

    Tornadoes don't like being chased, that's primarily why they cause all the destruction they do.

    Excellent, love the music too. What about heat, I assume you have a fan or duct from the aircon unit? Bigger alternator for the external battery too?

    All I would do is put a damn good roll cage in and seats with a five point harness. This is just overkill

      DanielDaniel1 there’s a lot more to it than just a rollcage and five point harnesses. It depends on if your actually going Into the tornado or not.

    I just bought a 2005 dodge grand caravan and I want to use that as a storm chase car.. I did have an older caravan which was a 1997 and unfortunately it broke down and it was best that I got a newer one which is better. Any advices on what I should do with it?? Cause I do have and amber light strobe that I can attach when I go out storm chasing

    I am definitely going to do this, but make my own special vehicle for storm chasing, and since I am a sophomore, I need to convince my parents to get me a car that I can, DESTROY BUILD DESTROY....

    You don't need a cable modem for a router to work. All the cable modem does is provide internet to the router. The router is simply a network "hub". It's responsible for distribution of connections. I suspect that they have either some sort of cell or other connection for internet.
