Any vehicle can become a "storm chasing" vehicle. Most chasers will add electronic weather stations to the vehicle to give live temperature, humidity and wind information. Often times, chasers will have a HAM radio setup on the truck to talk with other chasers and the National Weather Service. I will stress that storm chasing can be extremely dangerous if you're not a professional with a meteorology degree! In order to chase is a safe fashion, you have to know tons of dynamic factors of the atmosphere to know where the safest viewing spot of the storm will be. This part of the storm will change between different days and different thunderstorms depending on storm structure and other properties of the upper atmosphere at the given time. That's why it's imperative to NOT chase UNLESS you have a meteorology degree and know all the details of how the storms will behave that day and how to determine signs of storm misbehavior in advance.
