Is it possible that the $1.1 mil is the price for the base Prevost chassis and the all the interior package and armoring that was installed in Tennessee by Hemphill was additional cost?
To: Gettin Betta
Gotta be a lot of armor. Wonder what that bus weighs?

That sounds more like it. Figure $1.1m for the base bus and then God knows how much to have it up-armored and have all the Presidential toys fitted. I’d be surprised if that thing ended up costing a total of less than $3m.

I'm not as concerned that this million dollar bus was made in Canada, as I am with the fact that this million dollar bus (and millions more spent to carry Obama around) are being spent by taxpayers as we fund Obama's 2012 campaign re-election tour.

This fact needs to be hammered each & every day by every candidate for every office- even dog catcher.
Perry needs this info—NOW.

I dont believe for a second they paid only 1.1 million for a Prevost. They go easily for a million plus to the general public and thats without all the armour and other stuff. That's what I was thinking. I'll bet 1.1 million was the price for the base vehicle before modifications.
I'm wondering if they have slide outs?

Wow Sarah Palin spends her own money to buy clothes and shelter and the media blows a gasket. Obama spends over a million dollars of taxpayer money on a blinged out tour bus from Canada during the worse recession in American history and the media cheers.
Bias much?

Anyone seen any reporting on where the money for those buses came from? Was it authorized by Congress? If so, when? If not, where did the USSS get the money for those buses..?
