why do they need this vehicle?

My first guess would be money transport

I’ve seen them a couple times but I’m pretty sure a store can only have so much money on site. When you have a truck that’s visiting multiple of these stores on their rounds would definitely be a target for your ballsy ner-do-well

Yeah armored car services are pretty common for large cash hauls; retail to bank, ATM refills, etc.

This doesn’t appear to be an armored personnel carrier for like SWAT teams or something, more likely to protect valuable cargo.

Because sometimes people get violent with guns/fireworks and it's quite useful to have some protection?
