This isn't the CEO of Mercedes.

The CEO is Dieter Zetsche


The person in that video is R. Trent Kimball who is the CEO of Texas Armoring Corporation (TAC).



TAC specialize in armouring different types of vehicles.


This picture was after the video.



You can read more about the video here

A little research instead of just copying and pasting would have prevented this mis-information.




Perfect Analysis

@OP, CEO of TAC, an automobile reinforcement company and not Mercedes. Nice advert though.

A serious blogger should take out time to understand the area of specialty and not just rely on "copy and paste". It takes away content from the blog.

Bulletproof vehicles and limousines are not made by car companies. There are companies dedicated to these extra services and products. They purchase, modify and resell.
Who told you so? You're accusing someone of the very thing you're doing.

Once a topic reaches a FP, the author can't edit it again as it automatically remains locked, only the SUPER MOD can edit or make adjustments, thats why I quickly did a rebrutal below it...

Check our website, it has been modified

All retrofitted and with different designations.

That's why you don't see them in the open market.

Eg. Do you want the S600 Pullman? They take the S600 Guard and retrofit. The S600 Pullman you will see at the dealership is for display only. When you order, they take a Guard and reconfigure with components not designed by Mercedes like "Pimping my Ride" kind of scenario.

How do you reconfigure an S-Guard?
Why you come dey change mouth na?
First, you said...

...Bulletproof vehicles and limousines are not made by car companies. There are companies dedicated to these extra services and products. They purchase, modify and resell.

Now you don change am to retrofitted?
Why? cry

If I order the components, I can retrofit my own car to be bulletproof. The same way the car companies will order the components and retrofit their models just like any armouring company. The car companies do not manufacture those components. As such it is just a service they are willing to provide. The ones they build are readily available in the market. Armoring and limousines are by special arrangements which are possibly subcontracted out or operated under a subsidiary.

If you order Boeing 777, the American company will deliver as ordered. But the engine is subcontracted to Rolls Royce. It doesn't take away the fact that 777 is a Boeing product. The same principle goes in other manufacturing companies.

See how you are implicating yourself.

What if something happens and mistake occurs? Thats suicide na
No mistake it's 7.62 armouring, stops the most powerful ak47 rounds on impact, tac systems has 70 percent of its buyers in nigeria funny enough it's one of the best and they customised all presidential vehicles of the United States presidents, this Benz can also stand"1" single RPG attack and the occupants can escape with glass cuts and burns but when it's full armoured? Sh*t!
