Pimp my ride, presidential edition (cont’d)

The above graphic, via Markos, answers the question I raised last week about the security features of the new Obamamobile.  (No tips regarding darkblack’s query whether the cigarette lighter would work, though maybe the fire extinguisher is a hint.)

If there’s anyone thinking or writing a sequel to that Harrison Ford Air Force One flick, I suppose it would be helpful to know if the POTUS has direct access to the pump-action shotgun.

Pimp my ride, presidential edition

What do you get when you cross a Hummer with the Batmobile?  From CNN:

The Secret Service has unveiled the new presidential limousine, to debut on Inauguration Day next Tuesday.

Although many of the vehicles’ security enhancements cannot be discussed, it is safe to say that this car’s security and coded communications systems make it the most technologically advanced protection vehicle in the world,” Nicholas Trotta, Assistant Director for the Office of Protective Operations, said in a statement.

Any guesses as to what some of the secret “security enhancements” are?
