That’s a pretty cool setup with the swing up doors on both sides. Instant awning. Wonder what industry requires doors like that?

I was wondering the same thing...I thought maybe some type of delivery for a quick access? Or, maybe, the PO added them in? Also the generator(?) section behind the driver side rear wheel.

Super interesting Van, that's for sure.

The guy called me back. It was a border patrol maintenance vehicle. They had some machine that went out the side. Who knows what that was?

haha WHAT!! Who the heck got ripped off and paid 98k for that?

I bet the side doors was for some type of radar/scanning thing

I saw a very similar van that had a conveyor belt and x-ray in the back used at the border.

Aha! That’s totally it. Mobile baggage X-ray machine. Some of them look pretty sweet. Big box with gullwing doors so the conveyor is covered on both sides. Future overland vehicles for sure.
