For the first time Bush to pass it on the main streets of Detroit in the inauguration ceremony. Black Cadillac DTS presidential limousine from the company General Motors was assembled by hand specifically for the American President, it is longer, wider and higher-series models. Because of modern and improved armor protection president calls the machine "monster". Mina or grenade will not damage it, machine can travel on drained off flat tires. In autonomous mode power supply, U.S. President may hold at least two days (in this case, auto will be fully sealed). It has enough space for six people, and for rear passengers a hidden folding table.
