Yeah, I was thinking about it earlier. I wonder what the gas mileage is.

Would love to eventually know what all is in that bastard. What COULD it withstand. What can it do offensively?

The doors of the presidential state car have no keyholes; the way to open the passenger doors on the limousine is a secret known only to the Secret Service.[15] It has more 5-inch (130 mm)-thick[16] bulletproof glass than the previous model,[17] and only the driver's window opens (to pay tolls).[11] It also has run-flat tires, and an interior which is 100% sealed to protect the occupants in the event of a chemical attack.[17] The current presidential state car boasts rocket-propelled grenades,[16] night vision optics, a tear gas cannon, on-board oxygen tanks, an armored fuel tank filled with foam to prevent explosion, pump-action shotguns,[1][12] and 2 US pints (0.95 l; 1.7 imp pt) of blood in the president's blood type.[11] The current presidential state car can also fire "multi-spectrum infrared smoke grenades as a counter-measure to a rocket-propelled grenade attack or anti-tank missiles."[15] The car features 8-inch (200 mm)-thick doors. General Motors spokeswoman Joanne K. Krell said of the new presidential state car, "The presidential vehicle is built to precise and special specifications, undergoes extreme testing and development, and also incorporates many of the top aspects of Cadillac's 'regular' cars -- such as signature design, hand-cut-and-sewn interiors, etc."[10]

I'm sure there are things that aren't known by the general population as well.

apparently that is Obamas limo and trumps hasn't been unveiled yet

Also gets a whopping 8 mpg.

He's probably pissed that Obama didn't get him a Lincoln.

3.7: Average miles to the gallon

12: Number of actual Beasts in service

$1.5 million: How much each Beast costs

18: How long the Beast is, in feet

8: Thickness, in inches, of the doors' armor plating

5: Thickness, in inches, of the windows–bulletproof, of course

15,000: Best guess on how much the Beast weighs, in pounds (the exact number is classified)

I love that the driver's window opens a few inches so he can "pay a toll"


where in the free world is the President of the USA "paying a toll" ??

They should take one when it is retired and put it on a shooting range. Give money to a charity. I'd pay some good $$$ just to say I put a few chips in it lol.

Not in a "I hate --------" way. Just fun with firearms.
