I can see how this plays out.

"Hi. We need a rigger-adapted Ares Roadmaster, with a drone rack and ruthenium skin." "Lemme look around, I'll get back to you."

3 days later: "I'm Mr. Johnson. We've got a vehicle, currently sitting in this S-K facility, that we'd like picked up this evening."

Runners steal the van, thinking it looks familiar. The next day: "Hey, I got the Roadmaster, found one tricked out just like you asked."
"You can stop talking now.  Really.  Stop.  I have a Uzi."

Nah.

Johnson gets custom van order from rigger. Johnson places order officially, exactly what was specified.

Fixer sends runner on job to steal van and deliver it and it's cargo to Johnson.

Johnson collects on insurance for the van, and whatever is in the van. Johnson also makes additional personal profit by selling van to Fixer.

Fixer calls Runner back, saying, hey, this van just turned up...

I still like the Idea of hacking an auto factory setting an automated pick up and delivery service to move the item to a drop point and have your drone pick it up (unless it is said Road Master then just have it auto pilot to the drop point and Hack it) and remember to bring your Tag wiper and jammer

Have fun spending the next six hours going over every square centimeter of your new car with that tag eraser.

But it was Free  ;D

There's a question are structural Tag erasers feasible I could see a Mob chop shop needing one just drive in and fry the little buggers

Thoughts?

I can see it.  I imagine it would have to be pretty powerful and would probably have to be set up a special room that you drive the car into.  Otherwise you'd likely end up frying every RFID tag in the building.  Not that that's always a bad thing.  ;D

My initial thought was an EMP inside a Farraday cage. But then I realized it would be very difficult to design something to wipe all of the tags and leave all of the other electronics in the vehicle intacts. I am not sure it can be done en masse like that.

There is in fact a "vehicle tag eraser" modification, that when activated wipes any tags entering or placed on the vehicle.
