I found  out what it really was and then promptly forgot it.  It's 
built on a  Ford F350 chassis, I think.  I have no idea what it was 
doing in that  parking lot in Mesquite, though.



Coincidentally, there was a show on a PBS station a few nights ago  featuring 
that very vehicle. It's a tornado chase rig, designed to withstand a  direct 
hit from these types of storms. I'm sorry I don't recall exactly  which/where 
I saw this, but I'm hoping another Lister also saw it. 
It does look like something you'd expect to see parked near Roswell or in  
Vegas.
