You assume that the information in the diagram is correct and not based upon a great deal of conjecture and supposition.

I think the funny part of the article is how hypocritical Obama is, if the rumor is true he asked for a Hybrid Limo.

Just one less leisure trip across the pond in AF1 or even to one of his "golf outings" would save more fuel than 40 years of driving this limo.

You have to start somewhere to discuss the subject so many giving up info so freely is wrong and I predicted your comment in advance of considering the subject.

Remember Geraldo Rivera and the Iraq invasion giving up location of approaching troops?

They grabbed him and threw him out of Iraq

His car gets 8 mpg. Yet he's talking constantly about the environment and how mileage standards should be raised, cap and trade, etc.. His car gets 8 mpg.

I would assume numerous reasons
1) Its a warning that the limo is highly equipped, so save your time and dont think about going after it
2) Since the taxpayers pay for it, one might be able to get a blueprint by filing a freedom on information act. They could make an argument to deny based upon national defense
3) Most of the items listed, one would assume is pretty standard and would be expected to be in the limo
4) I'm sure the limo has even more safety equipment, not listed..
