Mr President, your ride is ready
It looks kinda like a stretched Cadillac DTS, but don’t be fooled:
Described as “a rolling tank with windows,” word is that the limo is actually not a Cadillac, but rather something built on a medium-duty truck chassis.
Spy shooters have captured the limo testing alongside a pair of GMC Topkick pickups, and keen observers have noted that the wheels and rubber appear to be dimensionally identical to those found on the big trucks (the limo sports 19.5-inch Goodyear Regional RHS tires). Bystanders even contend that a the limo sounds like it’s sporting a diesel engine underhood.
The exterior is an amalgamation of various Cadillac bits, with Escalade headlights flanked by Caddy’s corporate grille and a set of taillights pulled from the STS.
Probably weighs as much as a brace of Hummers, what with the obligatory armor and all, which suggests that this beast is probably on the slow side. Fortunately, Mr Obama has already been treated to a Patience Exercise, having given up his speedy Chrysler 300C for a lethargic but politically-correct Ford Escape Hybrid.
