1996 Cadillac Fleetwood Custom Built Secret Service Limousine on 2040-cars
Tampa, Florida, United States
|
Up for Auction is a custom built one of a kind 1996 Cadillac Fleetwood open top Limousine I have had in my collection for a few years that was originally built for the U.S. Secret Service as a follow up car by S&S Coachbuilders. Same coachbuilders that worked with Cadillac on the Clinton Armored Presidential Limousines. It is very unique with three openings in the roof for riders to stand up and view everything around them. This vehicle started its life as a rear
wheel drive Cadillac Fleetwood Sedan.
This is the last year of the rear wheel drive Fleetwood Cadillac.
FEAUTURES: It was stretched 48 inches in the middle behind the driver doors. The rear compartment is double the size of a factory sedan. It has a rear facing middle seat and two middle doors with concealed door handles in the frame and no exterior door handles. The middle exterior looks like a standard limousine with no door handles. Hidden openers are in the front driver and passenger door frame. The most unique feature of this limousine is its roof and rear compartment. The roof is steel reinforced and has three cut outs for people to stand up in and stick there head (and weapons out). One opening is narrow and above the driver compartment. The rear compartment has two huge openings (see pictures) with grab handles in between. The roof is finished in vinyl and it is like new. It also has a snap on black canvas cover if weather is inclement. That can be folded up and put in the trunk when not in use. This vehicle was built under specifications by the Secret Service and delivered in 1995 and decommissioned right after 9-11 because it is NOT armored. They went to all armored SUVS as follow up cars. After that it was used at their training center as a training vehicle. I bought it from a dealer in PA in 2012. I had it repainted, new carpet, new headliner, new vinyl top. Rest was perfect. This is a
gorgeous ride and would be awesome in someone's collection. Or to promote a business, weekend touring, site seeing, charity
promotions, vineyard tours, city tours, historic tours, a real estate business
and of course parades. OR what i use it for just cruising to car shows and
driving on sunny weekends. You can fit six people in the back compartment
comfortably. In case it rains there is a snap on black canvas weatherized top that covers the entire roof.
Everything is perfect and looks like new. Has brand new chrome emblems all around and Cadillac marker lights on the sail panel. Grab handles are on the roof in case you want to stand up and much more.
THIS IS A
HEAD TURNER. You will NEVER see another one pull up next to you and this one is
in mint condition. THIS VEHICLE
HAS just 46K miles on it!!!! THAT IS RIGHT JUST 46 THOUSAND ORIGINAL MILES.
Mechanically for the gear heads, this Cadillac came from the factory with the
formidable Corvette LT-1 V-8 Engine and
matched automatic transmission which Cadillac borrowed from Chevrolet to give
unbelievable power to this huge rear wheel drive car. This model is the last rear
wheel drive model Cadillac built. The engine is the same engine as the Corvette
of this year. Power is unreal and the ride is incredible. All the
chrome on the vehicle is showroom new. The exterior features lighted flag
stands on the front fenders. All badging is brand new chrome because when we got it had none on it. There are a total
of six doors that open but the middle doors have no door handles for a clean
and finished limousine look. INTERIOR DESCRIPTION The front driver’s compartment is finished in original black leather and it is in very good shape with no rips or tears. The front interior has perfect and original leather and original carpet and mats in excellent condition. The car looks new inside and out with all original gauges, AC and everything works. There is a high power air conditioning system for the rear with vents along the roof line. The rear
compartment is brand new in all aspects. The middle seat faces the rear. the rear seat has head rests and has air conditioning
vents on the headliner around the sides. The entire interior is like new
and carpet is brand black with absolutely no wear anywhere. All door panels are like new
condition. The interior and exterior shows absolutely no wear at all. The front
compartment is factory with the addition of flag stand light switch (never ever
fly the American Flag at night without lighting it) and interior special light
package switch. There are
two air conditioning systems in the vehicle with controls in the front for the
factory air and the rear air conditioning system that has vents under the
middle and rear seats for use to cool passengers during long parades. White wall
tires are excellent with 70% left on them and like new Cadillac Factory Chrome Correct

2020 Cadillac XT6 earns IIHS Top Safety Pick award
Wed, Dec 4 2019The 2020 Cadillac XT6 luxury three-row crossover has proven to be plenty competent on the road, and now it turns out to have impressive performance in crash tests. The IIHS recently tested the big Caddy and gave it a Top Safety Pick award. It just missed out on the highest Top Safety Pick + rating because of headlight performance. In every single crash test, the XT6 earned the highest "Good" rating for passenger protection. Both the standard and optional forward collision prevention systems also received the highest "Superior" ratings, and they were both able to bring the car to a stop before colliding with another vehicle at speeds up to 25 mph. The one area it didn't earn top marks was with headlights, which were rated "Acceptable," the second-highest score. Though it doesn't factor into the Top Safety Pick criteria, the IIHS also rated the child seat LATCH anchor access "Acceptable." Among three-row luxury crossovers, there are three others that have the Top Safety Pick rating: the Infiniti QX60, Lexus RX and Volvo XC90. Only one crossover in this segment has the highest Top Safety Pick + rating, and that's the Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class.
Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?
Sun, Jul 9 2023The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric. Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands. If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) — unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla. Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor. Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have: Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners — those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port — will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 — eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.
2020 Cadillac XT6 fuel economy announced
Mon, May 20 2019Thanks to the EPA's fuel economy website, we finally know how frugal the 2020 Cadillac XT6, the brand's first three-row crossover, is with gasoline. The most efficient is the front-wheel-drive version, getting 18 mpg in the city, 25 on the highway and 20 in combined driving. The all-wheel-drive XT6 is just barely behind it with 17 mpg in town, 24 on the highway, and 20 combined. Both versions share the same 3.6-liter V6 with 310 horsepower and 271 pound-feet of torque and the same nine-speed automatic transmission. These numbers put the Cadillac XT6 very much on par with the competition. Both the four-cylinder and V6 versions of the Audi Q7 get 21 mpg combined, just beating the XT6, and both feature standard all-wheel drive. The Q7 with an inline-four makes less power at 255 horses while matching the XT6's torque at 273 pound-feet. The V6's 329 horsepower and 325 pound-feet beat the Caddy, though. Both Audi and Cadillac have almost the same starting price at about $53,000. Every version of the Acura MDX tops the XT6, including the least-efficient MDX A-Spec, which manages 21 mpg in combined driving. The non-A-Spec all-wheel-drive model gets 22 mpg combined, and the front-drive MDX hits 23 mpg. But the best is the Sport Hybrid that delivers 27 mpg combined. All of the non-hybrid MDXs are less powerful and less torquey than the Cadillac, though, at 290 horsepower and 267 pound-feet of torque. The Sport Hybrid is a bit more powerful and torquey than the Cadillac with 321 horsepower and 289 pound-feet of torque. The Acura does start at a lower price of just over $45,000. The XT6 does beat one of its three-row crossover rivals, though. Its 20 mpg combined rating is comfortably ahead of the Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class's most efficient V6 version at just 18 mpg. But the Mercedes also delivers 362 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque, and there are even more powerful, but less efficient, V8s on offer. The Mercedes is much more expensive than the Cadillac with a base price of over $70,000.
