Before you look for a limousine company it’s in your best interest to consider what type of limo you need. There are varied types and designs available depending on the company you choose. Many have modern, up-to-date vehicles while others are still working with cars from a few years back. It all simply depends on what you want; to this effect, asking the questions below will help you narrow down your list and figure out the type of limousine that is right for you.

For what kind of event do you need the limousine?

This is important as you want to be sure you have the desired amenities and space for your party. Additionally, choosing a limo is very much personal; some might prefer the Hummer Stretched Limo or Party Bus over the sleek, elegant Chrysler and vice versa. This is why you want to ensure your limo not only has everything you want, but is the style you prefer. A good way to determine this is to make a list of everything you want the limo to have, how long the trip is going to be and how much you want to pay.

How many people are in your party?

This, of course, plays a huge factor in the type of limo you get. If you have a party of over twenty people, for example, you have to go with a limo that supports the number, like a Party Bus or Land Yacht.

What kind of limousine atmosphere are you looking for?

Determine if you’re looking for sleek, elegant and graceful or modern, trendy and hip. All limousines have many great accessories, but some carry off a more party-ish vibe and others less so. Some, like the H2 Hummer Stretch Limousine, have an interior reminiscent of a luxurious lounge; others, like the 2006 Chrysler 300 Stretch Limo, have a more elegant, professional feeling.

What is your budget for a limousine?

This is another important element when looking for a limo. While many may not have a particular budget, others do; in lieu of this, make sure the limo you want fits the amount you’re able to spend.

If you keep all these questions in mind when you’re searching for a limousine service, you should be able to find the one that perfectly suits your needs. Whether it’s the long, graceful Chrysler or the hip H2 Hummer Stretch Limo, you will have a great time traveling in the lap of luxury.

Choosing the right limousine is often an important factor to many people, so it’s a good thing there are a wide variety to choose from. When looking for the limo that suits your tastes, remember to ask yourself questions such as how many or few passengers will be riding with you, what kind of ambiance you prefer, what your budget is and any other questions you might have.

While there are numerous types of limousines available, four of the most popular are the Ford Excursion stretch limo, the Party Bus or Land Yacht, the 2006 Chrysler 300 stretch limo and the H2 Hummer stretch limo. Outlined below are the main qualities that make these four types of limos high in demand.

Ford Excursion Stretch Limo

The Ford Excursion stretch limo can be as much as 140 ft. long with a far larger capacity for passengers than a standard limousine. Most limo service companies ensure that it comes with full amenities, including a high-end sound system full bar and several LCD color TV’s. These are standard amenities; others may be more luxurious depending on the company. It is one of the only SUV’s manufactured as a stretch limousine.

The Party Bus

Also called a “land yacht,” this luxurious vehicle was created to address the issue of too many people; unlike a normal limousine, which often seats up to 10 people, the Party Bus can hold as many as 22. Like the Ford Excursion, the Party Bus usually has a decked-out interior that may often be a little more playful, complete with the color LCD TV’s, one of which is often a big screen, and a full bar.

2006 Chrysler 300 Stretch Limo

The 2006 Chrysler 300 stretch limousine is a streamlined, elegant limo that is quite luxurious. It has the standard amenities, including bar and plush leather interior. It sits up to 10 people and thus is one of the smaller models of stretch limos. The Chrysler screams class and is guaranteed to turn heads.

H2 Hummer Stretch Limo

The H2 Hummer stretch limo is guaranteed to get attention. This is a spacious, decked-out limousine that seats up to eighteen people easily. It is an ideal limo for long trips especially because of how spacious and comfortable it is. Expect the interior of any one you rent to be completely outfitted with the latest in big screen and color LCD TV’s, DVD and surround system, full bar and more.

Auto insurance policies are one of the most basic and common types of policies available to consumers. Like any other insurance policy, they involve specific terms and protocols that are often confusing to wade through.

Quite simply, an auto insurance policy includes these elements: there is the insurance company, who is offering the policy; the agent, who is the insurance company’s representative; the consumer, who is looking to purchase a policy, and the terms, which state the responsibilities, coverage and legalities of the insurance policy.

The first to take into consideration are the qualifications of the insurance company. Do they have a good reputation? How are they rated with A.M. Best Company and other insurance regulatory agencies? Do they offer fair coverage rates?

Ask the right questions and shop around; compare rates, reputations and anything else that will help you make an informed decision. You are not only shopping for a good insurance company, but you are also shopping for a good agent.

A good agent will compare the different companies and place you with the company that fits your needs. You should look for an agent that can answer all your questions and who will be dedicated to actually finding you the best deal out there.

The second thing to look at is you, the consumer. Take into account your financial status and your needs as a driver; figure out which coverage is best for you.

Determine the most you can spend on a policy and figure what you can really afford; this will help you figure out what kind of coverage you actually need and help you and your agent pinpoint the correct policy.

Again, you need a good, solid agent to help you make an informed decision.

Choose your agent, coverage and your insurance company wisely. For example, if you commute to work everyday in rush hour traffic, full-coverage insurance is probably best for you.

If you have a newer car, full-coverage insurance is probably best for you. If you drive rarely, maybe liability and uninsured motorists is best for you because of the lower risk.

If you have an older car, maybe liability and uninsured motorists is best for you. You have many options as a consumer, so make the most of your opportunities and educate yourself.

Being an informed consumer means you get a better deal on your auto insurance policy and that you find the one that truly works for you.

Here is a list of some of what we consider to be the world’s hottest limos. They were chosen with attention to popularity amongst users and their aesthetic appeal on a general level. Keep in mind that these are all production models and that there are some very awesome custom limos that abound; this “hotness list” mostly applies to stock models that have been stretched. If you have a special favorite you’d like to share with readers, please post a comment below and let us know.

Keep in mind that even though these limos have similar stats, they actually differ greatly design-wise on the inside according to the particular limo company or coach builders preference.

Some of these limos may be familiar to you and others may not; they are listed in no particular order, but the top two are some of the snazziest we’ve seen:

1. Third Generation Mazda RX-7 Limo

A more exotic limo, this one is super cool and speaks to the car connoisseur and luxury lover in all of us. Equipped with a twin-turbo rotary engine, power side door and much much more.

2. 2006 Chrysler 300 Limo

This is 140 inches of luxurious interior and sleek, modern exterior. Full bar, leather seats, spacious interior, LCD big screen TV, seating for at least ten people; this limo usually comes with the works and is one of the most in-demand limo rentals on the market.

3. Infiniti QX56 Limo

This is a sweet stretched Infiniti QX56 SUV limo. It offers 20-22 passenger seating, wet-bar, DVD player, big screen TV, fiber optic lighting and mirrors, surround sound and much more.

4. Party Bus

The party bus is a special type of limo and we’ve included here because it is one of the coolest limos. The exterior is clean and modern, though a little boxy. The interior is usually amazing with mostly leather upholstery, several bars, a big screen TV or two, fiber optic lighting system and much more. Like any limo, even regular production limos, the interiors are often customized.

5. Corvette Limousine

We snuck this one in here because, though a little strange, it is a striking machine that is definitely hot. Vet owners love it, other opinions were across the board, but its a sweet car nevertheless. Fully equipped and usually customized, it is a rare beauty that is a must-see if you have the chance.

6. Cadillac Escalade Limo

Depending on how stretched it is, these cool cars can hold over 17 people easily and usually sport all the bells and whistles: full bars, leather seats, fiber optic lighting, LCD TV’s, DVD players and surround sound. Definitely a hot ride that deserves a solid spot on the top ten hottest limos in the world list.

7. Hummer 2 Stretch Limo

The Hummer 2 stretch limo has it all: power, strength and ultimate luxury. Some of these sweet limos even come decked with dance floors. They offer all the amenities and then some. They are one of the most popular limos requested in the US, and you can see why.

8. Lincoln Navigator Stretch Limo

Another contender for “most popular” limo, the Lincoln Navigator stretch limo is the ultimate in urban luxury. Usually decked out with every accessory imaginable, from custom floors to bars and modern lighting and design, they are an easy, laid back model that deserves at least a peek.

9. Ford Excursion Limo

The Ford Excursion limo is, like the Hummer, Infiniti and Navigator, a stretched SUV limo that bears similarities to the navigator. Normally tricked out with every accessory imaginable, it is a favorite with limo renters and buyers.

10. Cadillac DTS Limo

Yes, this is like the one that drives the president. It is a super sweet stretch limo that epitomizes luxury and class and is worth looking at. Most have fully customized interiors that have everything from wet bars to big screen TV’s, special lighting systems, leather seats and much, much more.
