Its not really important information, more like standard stuff that some people already know.

Heck, they probably change the spec on the vehicle after that article or change the spec. depend on which environment he's in.

I have seen about 2-3 cars each day since the past month on Lake Shore with busted rims or tires, usually the center lane is the best to be in IMO

As for the limo, safe and kinda stylish way to travel in

American Limos are so ugly. I envy Europe where the have their XJ and S class limos.

Um...not sure what's with the bump after over a year, with embedded links to "limo services".

Anyway, that limo is practically a truck disguised as a car by tacking on a boot-like growth on the rear. It's almost as tall as the Tahoes that it travels with.
