Hillary Clinton has arrived at her first campaign stop, completing the 965 mile trip from Chappaqua, New York to Le Claire, Iowa in about two days time. Her choice of transportation? A Secret Service owned and operated van.
The van, however, isn't an everyday minivan or even a full-sized van. It's a luxury vehicle outiftted with top amenities.
Specifically: It's a limited edition Chevrolet Express van upfitted with a Limited SE packed by Explorer Vans company "It's very luxurious," a salesman who helped deliver this vehicle tells me on the phone. "I'd rank it up there with the best."
The model being used to chauffeur Hillary Clinton around has a gray leather interior, heated seat, a 29 inch Samsung television, and a Blu-ray DVD player.
There is no refrigerator in the van. However, Hillary's model does feature an ice chest between the two front seats. (Which might have been used to keep her cottage cheese cold.) The middle chairs are swivel and quick release. Indirect lighting (like mood lighting) throughout the vans.
Oh, and there's a bed. The power sofa in the rear of the vehicle converts into a bed. But given the fact it's only a 6 foot wide vehicle, it might have been a little hard to get a proper night's sleep in it.
But it's not exactly great for the environment. It's a 2014 model all-wheel-drive that gets only 16-18 miles per gallon.

Indeed, because of rising regulated fuel efficiency standards, it's the last of its kind. Due to Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) regulations, they don't make them like this anymore. And 2014 was the last year one could get an all-wheel-drive van like this, the salesman tells me on the phone.
Still, no picture.
“Lots of leather...” I don’t even want to think about it.
Nothing but the best for the Queen.
Well, I bet it is stocked well with whiskey and beer....
Cottage cheese storage-—riiiight. A first rate boozer this old drunk hag is.
Nothing is too good for our overlords...
Keep paying your taxes proles...

I don’t think she drinks beer. There must be a bar in there somewhere.
“model does feature an ice chest between the two front seats. (Which might have been used to keep her cottage cheese cold.”
So she’s sitting on it?
Huma is traveling with Hillary. Where did Huma sleep??
They didn’t say it was on the furnishings...could be the cow inside.
Cue music... Me and you and a gal named Hu driving around the country in a van....
nyuck, nyuck.... that IS a good one! LOL!.
I wonder if she flies from city to city on a private jet and then gets into the “bus” for the last few miles. I recall Al Gore coming to my city on a private jet and riding the last few miles in a Honda Pius.
I don’t think she drinks beer. There must be a bar in there somewhere.
I’m sure Jack Daniels is the only male in her life.
As I remember, Ol’ Bill had a pickemup truck with a bed lined in AstroTurf!
“A Secret Service owned and operated van.”
WE, the idiot taxpayers are honored to have Hillary use a van, purchased with tax dollars as a campaign vehicle.
I wonder what her cost will be. $0.10 a mile? Probably closer to $0.01 per mile.
