Everything You Need to Know About Hillary Clinton's 'Scooby Van' - Bloomberg

Hillary Clinton is just like the rest of us. When she wants to go on a trip, she gasses up the old van, makes a quick stop at Chipotle and hits the open road. The one difference is that for Clinton, the old van is a tricked out Chevrolet Express 1500 that retails for between $50,000 and $60,000. . After announcing her presidential campaign Sunday, Clinton set off for Iowa with top aides Huma Abedin and... Campaign communications director Jennifer Palmieri tweeted that the trip was Clinton's own idea, and that she loves her ride, which she affectionately calls the "Scooby Van. The captain seats swivel around towards the sofa seat in the rear, making it easy for Clinton, Abedin, and Merrill to have a face-to-face meeting while barreling down I-80. The van also features a 26-inch television, nine speakers, and a subwoofer. The van can already pull in local television as it moves through cities, and Clinton's crew likely has it's own mobile hotspot to get WiFi, Kesler said. Unlike Clinton herself, Explorer vans enjoy bipartisan support. Lebron James, Shaquille O'Neal and Michael Jordan all have Explorer vans, and the Jolie-Pitt family has two, one they keep stateside and one in Europe. Clinton had her first Explorer van sometime in the '90s, though Kesler didn't have. Source: www.bloomberg.com
