Unveiling 'The Beast': Top Secrets of the Presidential Limousine

While many of the car's features are classified, some of the more public-facing elements have a rich history. The three presidential seals inside the newest versions are inlaid in wood from a horse-chestnut tree planted by George Washington. This detail connects the modern marvel to the nation's founding. The use of custom-made, hand-stitched, or now laser-etched, titanium seals further demonstrates the level of detail and craftsmanship that goes into every aspect of the presidential limousine.
