I was scrolling through Reddit when I saw something bizarre in the Grand Rapids community section.

It was an SUV with tons of what looked like antennas attached to the top of it

Reddit user JournieRae asked:

Anyone know about this vehicle in grand rapids and why they've got so many antennas? I've heard they might be storm chasers, but not sure why they'd need so many antennas.

 

Reddit user caffeinetriplet shared another picture someone posted of the same strange SUV driving around Grand Rapids.

I have so many questions that I fear will never be answered, like how does this vehicle get through a drive-thru? Or what do they do when they want to wash it?

ONE REDDIT USER CLAIMED TO KNOW WHO OWNED THE THE VEHICLE

Reddit user throwawayquigon said:

I know who is in this vehicle. I will call him Corporal Shaun. He is a local private security guard who is a storm chaser hobbiest in his free time. Interesting fellow to be honest. He had some wild stories when he trained me on the job.
Is this the owner of the strange SUV driving around Grand Rapids?
Will we ever find out why there are so many antennas on it?
Hopefully, one day we'll get some answers.
