GM delivers new presidential limo for Barack Obama

DETROIT (AP) - President-elect Barack Obama's new ride has arrived.

 

The Detroit News reports Tuesday that a new model of a presidential limousine made by General Motors Corp. has been delivered to the Secret Service.

 

The armored 2009 Cadillac Presidential Limousine will make its debut at Obama's Jan. 20 inauguration in Washington.

 

The Secret Service and GM say they'll reveal more about the custom vehicle's specifications next week.

 

Older-model presidential limos will remain in use. The previous model, a modified Cadillac DTS, was introduced at President George W. Bush's second inauguration in 2005.
