Hello, this is your president's "car"-Cadillac
In 2020, the American election day became election week, and the plot was also ups and downs. Even now, I dare not say that the dust has settled. During the period, Lao Ai saw a hot spot tracking advertisement and sincerely admired the brain hole of the OEM.

I don't know what consumers think, but when I saw this advertisement, Lao Ai's gossip heart was instantly hooked out. Is this the contest of "President One"? Is it related to the mystery of the president's assassination? Ai couldn't help glancing at the news that a famous American brand announced that it would no longer make cars, and he was thinking about it at that time.

1.? "Look! President number one! " ! Stop yelling. They've never called it that.

There are 46 presidents in the United States so far, and 2 1 has a presidential car (as long as they have been in the car, the previous bosses still like the station wagon). . )。 Woodrow Wilson, then the 28th president of the United States after World War I, chose Cadillac limousine as the car to celebrate the victory parade at 19 18, and only then won the "exclusive car for the president" (United? Status? President? Limos) "said.

19 18? Cadillac? Type? 57

Later, the 30th President Coolidge also chose Cadillac's semi-convertible as the president's official car. Later, there were two memorable cars in Cadillac's presidential car, one named Queen Mary and the other named rms queen elizabeth, both named after two famous ocean-going cruise ships at that time. These two cars became the cars of Roosevelt, Truman and Admiral Eisenhower before and after World War II. (Note that it is not an exclusive car. No boss has two or three cars, let alone the president of the superpower at that time. The story of Lincoln and Cadillac's "contest" also happened for the first time during this period.

President Roosevelt's official exclusive car at that time was not the two queens, but Lincoln's 1939 model V 12 presidential convertible "Sunshine". After the Pearl Harbor incident, the Secret Service was worried that the convertible was unsafe, so it found a "reloaded" Cadillac for President Roosevelt. And this reloaded Cadillac used to be al capone's car, and the gangster's fierce name resounded throughout the United States. Roosevelt took this bus to and from the Capitol on February 8, 65438, and completed the famous "national humiliation speech". And this gangster's car has been used by Roosevelt to equip his Lincoln Sunshine with bulletproof armor.

1939? Lincoln? Sunshine? special

1928? Cadillac? Town? sedan chair

The so-called presidential car in the second contest between Lincoln and Cadillac refers to Lincoln's car when President Kennedy was assassinated in 1963, so all previous American presidents did not choose Lincoln's car as their exclusive car because of "unlucky assassination". Although this is a superstition, I have to say that Lincoln's luck is really disappointing. 198 1 year, President Reagan was assassinated in Lincoln's car. One of the six shots fired by the murderer hit the bulletproof armor and bounced back on President Reagan, almost killing him.

196 1? Lincoln? 100X

I mistakenly think that Cadillac's car really makes people feel heavier and heavier, and the safety is getting better and better. In the past 2-30 years, apart from Lincoln used by George H.W. Bush, American presidents really chose Cadillac more. This practice of making the president the default spokesperson has also been used to the extreme by Cadillac. China fans got a "President No.1" in the exclusive vehicle of the President of the United States because of the existence of the US presidential plane "Air Force One" and the US presidential security vehicle "Ground Force One" delivered on 201/kloc-0. There are really so-called modified models and cases of President I circulating in the domestic market. Ai doesn't comment on this, as long as everyone is happy. The exclusive car of the president of the United States (United? Status? President? Many luxury cars have their own good names: for example, Roosevelt's V 12 Lincoln Sunshine, Reagan's Cadillac fleetwood (non-exclusive name model), including Trump's Cadillac "Beast". It is said that the new president's car is also Cadillac, which is an upgraded version of Trump's Beast. But unfortunately, successive presidents of the United States have never called their cars "President No.1".

2.? Is his car really yours?

I'm sorry to break your heart, really not. Take Trump's Cadillac Beast as an example: it has a modern Cadillac shape, steel and ceramic armor, and an adequate protection system. Ceramic armor is not explained here. Ai has never seen a modified player install this in a car. Interested friends can search for the entry: armor inventory of main battle tanks in various countries. . .

The beast is 5.48 meters long, 1.78 meters high and weighs 6803 kilograms. The layout of the car is two seats in the front row, three seats in the middle and two seats in the back row. This car is based on the chassis of GMC truck. It is said that the research and development cost of this car is as high as $654.38+0.5 million. And former President Obama's Cadillac? One? " It is also a heavy-duty chariot class, with tear gas cannons inside ... The whole vehicle can cope with extremely bad weather and drive safely. Lao Ai thought of Batman.

New and old Cadillac? "Beast"

George W. Bush's Cadillac DTS, driving further, is not quite the same as that in our garage. It has a 5-inch thick steel plate and a fixed window. Don't forget, he is a person who has experienced 9 1 1. So, to sum up, the president of the United States basically only has a brand in the same place as our car. Don't be sad, because of the super-high safety required by the president's car, all their cars don't run as fast as our CT5. Trump's beast can run at 90 kilometers per hour, which is the strongest level of President Bush in the past, that is, 150 kilometers per hour. And the cost of vehicle maintenance is astronomical. Oh, after the president's car arrived, it was said that it had been dismantled. Why keep it a secret? Some people send the shell to the museum again, which is tantamount to scrapping it. You see, the famous presidential car, with a life span of less than ten years, is not as good as a pickup truck! !

2005? Cadillac? DTS

3.? It's good not to be president, don't worry.

Ed didn't mean to insinuate anyone here. He just talks about cars. The president of the United States is not an emperor. His special car doesn't drive whenever he wants. For example, on vacation, you can't drive this car, you can only drive your own car, followed by a bunch of bodyguards. Besides, you said I was the president, and I wanted the driver to take my daughter to school. This will not work, and private use of buses is also prohibited.

Every president's exclusive car is the product of strict design and long-term research and development, and the brand choice rumored by the people is also fabricated. American OEM brands are not that bad, and they have to kiss the president's ass, so even if they provide the president with a car, the right to use it is stipulated. The cooperation between the car and the government includes leasing and trading. Although successive presidents have content that can be customized according to personal preferences, Lao Ai thinks that the interior is nothing more than mahogany, gold-edged, reclining Buddha under the windshield, or rosewood bracelets.

In short, since we are not the president, we don't have to worry about the president. Please don't ask me any more technical questions about how tear gas is fired in Obama's exclusive car (we can talk in private).

Go to CT5? CT6? CTS car owners have a happy presidential package. I wish all friends who like American cars a good meal. Without the president's life, we wouldn't get the president's disease. . Now that the new president is on stage, Lao Ai is thinking about whether the bracelet on the handlebar in the car should be changed.
