Obama’s New Ride
By Rob Einaudi
Editor-in-Chief
GM is putting the finishing touches on this new presidential limo, thought to be based on GM’s 2500 line of trucks (details on this ultra-armored car are classified). It will replace the Caddy limo that Bush has used since 2005. Full writeup over at the New York Times.

this is a little late but funny anyway:
-
Twas the Night Before Elections . . .
Twas the night before elections
And all through the town
Tempers were flaring
Emotions all up and down!
I, in my bathrobe
With a cat in my lap
Had cut off the TV
Tired of political crap.
When all of a sudden
There arose such a noise
I peered out of my window
Saw Obama and his boys
They had come for my wallet*
They wanted my pay*
To give to the others*
Who had not worked a day!*
He snatched up my money
And quick as a wink
Jumped back on his bandwagon
As I gagged from the stink
He then rallied his henchmen
Who were pulling his cart
I could tell they were out
To tear my country apart!
On Fannie, on Freddie,
On Biden and Ayers!
On Acorn, On Pelosi’
He screamed at the pairs!
They took off for his cause
And as he flew out of sight
I heard him laugh at the nation
Who wouldn’t stand up and fight!
So I leave you to think
On this one final note-
IF YOU DONT WANT SOCIALISM
GET OUT AND VOTE!!!!

Aside from that, how sweet would it be to get your hands on one of these. I’m curious what it would actually take for anyone inside to actually get hurt. I wonder how it would do against a tank, should the need ever arise.

Why don’t they just get him a Ultra Armored Escalade limo??
It would look better than this thing.

It’s sad that he needs a car like that to protect him from his own country’s people as well as outside terrorist. Nice Limo. Lincolns are for anyone that needs a ride to the airport. Caddilac is more presidential if you ask me…

I hope it ends up with better looking rims on it. Looks like those rims came off the 2500 line. Guess that was one of the clues…

For once, building something on a truck chassis probably makes sense – since it’s gonna be carrying a few tons of armor, you gotta do it. The only disturbing part is that in the picture above, it kinda looks like they gave it the bed from the Chevy Avalanche. Sometimes the prez just has to go to home depot!

Sweet! It’s a limo version of the Escalade! Much cooler than a limo version of the DTS. And, rappers have made the Slade the black man’s choice. What could be more appropriate.
