Re: Rpo vn5
Both are SEO's (Specialty Equipment options, as opposed to RPOs - Regular production options). The SEO group handled all kinds of one-off vehicles for fleets, distinguished by the buyers (U Haul, Penske, Ryder, Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Grand Trunk Railroad, whomever) and/or by content (special boxes, unique colors, special wire harnesses, etc). Production volumes were usually in the range of "1" to less than 100 / 200 or so.
VN5 looks like a fleet discount specifically for the Wrigley company. You might recognize the applicable truck lines: C - 2wd fullsize K - 4wd fullsize G - full size van M - Astro van 2wd L - Astro van awd S - small pickup, 2wd T - small pickup, 4wd E8A - SEO for rear tonneau cover delete. Could be anything, not a pickup bed cover (since they were not available) but perhaps some kind of rear cargo cover (internal) and could have been used for any product line - truck or passenger car. In either case, they are both really obscure and probably nothing to get excited about. K

Re: Rpo vn5
You can tell them apart because pontgta's truck only goes straight, and mine only goes around corners...
