Hemphill Brothers, the Tennessee company that provided the motor for the bus, also declined to answer any questions about it.
According to the Web site of Holiday Motor Coach, a company that produces customized buses, their vehicles typically get about 6 mpg on the highway. But their vehicles, presumably, don’t typically have the sort of security upgrades required in a vehicle carrying the president.
In July, Obama signed an agreement with 13 major automobile manufacturers to increase the average fuel economy for their vehicles sold in the U.S. to 54.5 mpg by 2025.
