Few folks have a luxury vehicle that's also coated in battle-ready precautions. Even fewer folks have it funded by the U.S. Government. This is all assuming you're not the President. Trump's new limo has recently been delivered, and now we've seen it on duty.

Nicknamed the "Beast," the custom Cadillac was seen for the first time this Sunday at New York City's Downtown Manhattan Heliport. The limo has been in the works since 2013, costing nearly $15.8 million in contracting by General Motors. Originally intended for launch before the January 2017 inauguration, production was delayed until now. Trump has been using Barack Obama's limo.



This goes along well with vehicular tradition. Cadillacs have been used to transport U.S. Presidents since 1980. Though since the Bush administration, the vehicles of choice have been build on truck platforms. This is what led to the vehicle's larger size, and in turn, the Beast name.

Normally, we'd list some of the technical details for the cars we talk about. But as you can imagine, these details were classified for security reasons. But if we base it on older models, it likely comes with detachable doors for shields, bulletproof plating, emergency satellite phones, and a fair number of rations.
