The Obama’s limo is a gadget-filled Cadillac covered in 8-inch thick armor that adds up to a hefty eight tons. In a feature about the car in 2010, Discovery TV pointed out that it has a gas tank that won’t explode even upon a direct hit; it has night vision gear; and is so controlled an environment it can keep out a biochemical attack. There are even bottles containing blood matching that of the president’s type in the trunk.
