checkertaxistand ◊ 2006-11-20 05:22	Maybe there should be a new category? Airport limousine is appropriate (there are other cars that fit this, such as the old Chevy Suburban airport limo, with 4 doors on each side, which oddly enough, was built at the Checker factory).

What became the "stretchlimo-mania" during the 70s/ 80s (when everybody and his brother commenced offering this kind of vehicle), once started out as the idea of building passenger car based people movers in the mid-20s. So the airport limo is the actual ancestor of the stretched limousines we know today for pleasure/ business/ funeral/ whatever use. Pioneers in that field were Armbruster & Company of Fort Smith/ Arkansas (later Armbruster/ Stageway).
