The First Limousines

Limousines have become so commonplace in today's world that they're not even associated only with the wealthy anymore. In fact limousines are so common that plenty of people other than the rich ride in them and on a frequent basis too. Once reserved for Presidents, royalty, and the wealthiest of persons, limo's are now taken to and from airports, to birthday parties, to work, to proms and even weddings and funerals. Over the years the cost of renting a limousine has dramatically dropped too. Lower costs and virtually endless rental options make limousines the preferred method of street travel for people of all socioeconomic classes.

Humble Beginnings

The world first motorized limousine was nothing like it's modern day cousins. Built in 1902 the first limousine was more or less a large sedan. This limo was built solely to carry more than 5 people and didn't offer anything in the way of amenities or fun. It was a ride plain and simple. While the first limo didn't offer much in the way of luxury or comfort the worlds first stretch limousine was built in 1928 by the now defunct Armbruster company. These early stretch limos were primarily used to transport high profile Big Band musicians/leaders from one destination to another. These cars weren't as barren in terms of amenities as the first limousines were but they paled in comparison to even those limos that followed just a few years later.

It Rides No More

Although the world first limo no longer exists several replicas of that car have been produced and can still be found at car shows, in museums, and of course online. These reproductions are mostly very faithful to the original meager design though some have been modernized to make them more impressionable to modern audiences. Though the first limousine is long gone many of the first stretch limos still exist and belong to antique automobile collectors. The majority are retired and for show only though a few owners have been known to rent them out on special occasions...for an exceptional fee of course.

The Ford Model T Limousine

Hot and street rod enthusiasts will undoubtedly be familiar with Ford's Model T car. The car was manufactured from 1908-1927 until it was replaced by the Model A and Model B. Some historians and auto aficionados covert Model T Ford's into T-Buckets and other various types of modified hot rods. Being so old and a favorite of car enthusiasts you wouldn't think that a Model T would or could be turned into a limousine but one has.

Faithful To The Original

The Ford Model T Limousine provides riders with a comfortable and stylish ride without ever sacrificing or disrespecting the car's original design or feel. Sure the car is a modified Model T and it's been stretched but it still sports it's original Model T design and features almost entirely stock parts. Even though it's engine is small and modest it is strong enough to tote around 9 passengers, a driver, and one shotgun rider. It's not fast by any means but when you ride in this limo, getting to your destination right away isn't really the point.

A Specialty Limousine

While the Ford Model T limo is available for rent, it is more or less or show car. Those whom wish to rent this car need to keep in mind that this limo is one of a kind and is privately owned. This means that the cost of renting it can change and individuals should be prepared to wait as the owner only makes the car available during short windows over the course of a year. If the Ford Model T limo isn't available parties may want to consider one of the many alternative classic car limousines available. Those aren't necessarily cheap either but they are more numerous and therefore more readily available.

Real Heavyweights

Cars are massive constructs. Limousines are even more massive boasting additional wheels, larger engines, televisions, sound systems, bars, and even dance floors. Limousines can be quite large in both visible size and in weight. There are those limos however that give all new meaning to the word heavyweight. In actuality these limo's are more super or hyper-heavyweights than they are just plain old heavy. Some of these extraordinary cars carry their extra weight inside of their passenger cabins while others are massive simply because of the type of car or truck they are built from.

The Midnight Rider

Anyone who's driven on California's freeways will undoubtedly have seen numerous hauling trucks driving around. What these persons may not have seen is a semi-limo hauling around an enormous trailer full of people partying en route to their destination. The Midnight Rider weighs an astonishing 50560 lbs and is capable of transporting all of your friends and their friends around in one trip.

Weight Just A Minute

With so much emphasis and attention placed on The Midnight Rider's weight, it's amenities and luxuries are often overlooked. Figuratively speaking, The Midnight Rider is just as big on the inside as it is on the outside. This limo features 3 full sized lounges, a full bar, five television sets, a formidable sound system, and some of the most comfortable seating you'll find in a limousine.

Not So Fast

The Midnight Rider has more in common with nightclubs than it does cars but this isn't a detriment to the vehicle. It may not be the speediest limo on the market but it is one of the most expensive and sought after. You may be looking to reserve this limo after reading about it but doing so requires advanced planning, deep pockets, and patience.
