Some of the numbers boggled my mind as well...Just this one alone....Think how much this costs the taxpayers EACH DAY in just gas alone, let alone the cost of purchase, upkeep and storage of same vehicles.....(and these are not including the tactical military vehicles)

963,000 gallons times nearly $4/gal EACH DAY.... NO WONDER our debt is just overwhelming! and this is just a drop in the bucket of the TRILLIONS of $$$.....

Obama himself and his entourage must cost the US Taxpayers a "whole bunch" of money every day too....

The federal government‘s vehicle fleet has over 600,000 civilian and nontactical military vehicles and consumes over 963,000 gallons of petroleum-based fuel per day.
