While there are many pitfalls in assuming the most high-pressure job in the world, there are perks as well. President-elect Obama is about to get a very cool car.Gauging from what is known of earlier models, the car will reportedly have armor plating at least 5 inches thick, bulletproof windows, run-flat tires and a sealed interior to protect the president in case of chemical attack.We know it's a Cadillac and contains a CD player but the Secret Service won't tell us much more.
Stuff I'd ask for in my presidential ride:
1. Popcorn popper.
2. Widescreen HD TV.
3. One-person hot tub.
4. Presidential Slinky available in glove compartment.
5. Hotline telephone that immediately connects me to Gene Simmons.
6. Beaded curtain separates me from driver.
7. Refrigerated cup holders perfectly sized to hold YooHoo bottles.
8. Interior lighting pulses to beat of music.
9. On Demand movie system allows me to watch "Wayne's World" at any time.
10. When you try to unlock doors while in motion, HAL 2000 says "I can't let you do that, Mr. President."
11. Defense system includes flame-throwers and machine-guns that emerge from headlights--while muffler can spew oil and pointy-edged jacks in order to throw off pursuers.

Only a one-person hot tub?
Haven't you seen "No Way Out"?
My goodness. That is one ugly vehicle. That presidential ride has evolved into something short of a tank. I bet a tank would be less expensive to ride in than that pimped-out carriage.
