Colorado Man Buys a Storm Chasing Vehicle That Looks Like a Tank

If you see the pictured tank-looking vehicle driving around Colorado, do not be alarmed, it's just out hunting for tornadoes!

A Greeley, CO man recently purchased the unique-looking storm chasing vehicle that was built for the 2007 film, Tornado Alley.

It is built out of the frame of a Dodge Ram 3500 truck. It is a 14,000 pound armored vehicle that has a 90 gallon tank and can travel 800 miles without a refill. It is designed to go through tornadoes, it was tested in 25 mph winds from a jet engine, as well as 175 mph winds from an actual tornado, according to Shepard.
