Can we please get a better SWAT truck this time? The Riot Van was awful

I know it's a small thing in the grand scheme of everything we're getting, but I really hope Rockstar gives us a new SWAT truck design for GTA 6. The Riot Van from GTA 5 was just... bad. It looked like a shoebox on wheels, and compared to how detailed the rest of the vehicle lineup got over the years, it stuck out like a sore thumb.

Rockstar's been on a roll lately with making cars feel more grounded and closer to their real-life counterparts. The newer DLC vehicles in Online have way more realistic proportions and details. So I'm thinking, surely the Riot Van gets a complete overhaul for Leonida. Even something like the Insurgent would feel more believable as a police response vehicle than that boxy thing we've been stuck with.

I'm not asking for a 1:1 replica of a Lenco BearCat or anything, just something that doesn't look like it was designed in five minutes. What do you all think, are we getting a proper SWAT truck this time or are we rolling with the same old Riot Van?

That old Riot Van killed the vibe harder than static on Fever 105! I'm hoping Leonida's SWAT truck actually brings some presence.
