How the daily rotation works
The Gun Van has 30 fixed parking spots spread across Los Santos and Blaine County. Exactly one of them is active at a time, and Rockstar moves it to a new one at 06:00 UTC every day. That is a different clock from the weekly reset, which lands at 10:00 UTC on Thursdays, so the van can move without anything else in the week changing.
The location is calculated from the 06:00 UTC day index, so tomorrow's spot can be predicted in advance. One of the 30 spots is currently left out of the rotation, and Rockstar has changed which one before, so a prediction assumes that part has not changed.
How to find the Gun Van
Without GTA+, the van does not show on your map until you are nearby, so driving to the right area is most of the work. Once you are close, its blip appears and you can pull up to the back of the van to browse the stock.
With GTA+, the van gets a permanent blip on your map, which means you can see today's spot from anywhere and set a waypoint straight to it.
The van sells weapons, throwables and body armor, including weapons you cannot buy anywhere else. It carries a different selection each week, so what is in the back changes even though the van itself moves daily. Buying from the van does not need a workshop or any property.

Frequently asked questions
Where is the Gun Van today?
Today's spot is at the top of this page, with a link that opens it on the map. The van moves at 06:00 UTC, so a location you looked up yesterday will be wrong after that.
What time does the Gun Van move?
06:00 UTC every day. During daylight saving that is 11:00 PM Pacific the previous evening and 2:00 AM Eastern; once clocks go back it is 10:00 PM Pacific and 1:00 AM Eastern. It is not the same reset as the weekly update, which happens at 10:00 UTC on Thursdays.
Is the Gun Van in the same place for everyone?
Yes. The active spot is the same for every player on a given day, in public and private sessions alike. There is one catch worth knowing: if your session started before 06:00 UTC, it can keep spawning the van at yesterday's spot. If the van is not where we say it is, switching to a fresh session usually fixes it.
What does the Gun Van sell?
Weapons, throwables and body armor, with a rotating set of discounts each week. A handful of weapons are exclusive to the van, including the Railgun, but the van stocks only a few items at a time, so an exclusive is buyable only in the weeks it appears. GTA+ members get their own, usually deeper, discount on one item.
Can you find the Gun Van without GTA+?
Yes. The difference is only the map blip: without GTA+ the van appears on your map once you are nearby, while GTA+ members get a permanent blip. The stock and the prices are the same either way, apart from the GTA+ discount tier.
Does the Gun Van visit all 30 locations?
No. The rotation currently reaches 29 of the 30 spots: spot 5 in Vinewood Hills, up by the Vinewood Sign, is left out and never comes up. The other odd-numbered spots take about 6.9% of days each, while all 15 even-numbered spots together account for only about 3.5% of days, roughly one day in 430 each, because an even spot only comes up on the days when the excluded spot is drawn and re-rolled.
Can you predict tomorrow's Gun Van location?
Yes. Tomorrow's Gun Van location is Thomson Scrapyard, spot 11. It is calculated from tomorrow's 06:00 UTC day index. The one thing that could change it is Rockstar altering which spot is left out of the rotation, which it has done before.
