ICE denies flashy new cars are in hiding as agents say they don't want them
After spending millions of taxpayer dollars on a fleet of new vehicles with Donald Trump-inspired paint jobs, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents reportedly don’t want to drive them.
Last summer, a slick promotional video captured a Ford Raptor pickup truck and GMC Yukon SUV rolling around Washington, D.C., with music from DaBaby playing over close-up images of navy blue paint jobs with red-and-white racing stripes and a gold seal.
The words “defend the homeland” appear on the side, and “President Donald J. Trump” is printed in gold on a rear window.
Homeland Security’s preview of its new fleet — with paint jobs designed to look like the president’s private jet — cost more than $700,000. The government ultimately spent more than $2 million buying up hundreds of new cars with custom wraps, according to contracts reviewed by The Independent.

Did someone watch "Pimp my ride" and decide how these should be decorated?

The Maths aren't Mathing here.
With $2M, that's only 100 new cars at $20,000 each. With a bulk/government discount, $20K probably buys you the Nissan Sentra S.
No way did they buy "hundreds" of ICE suitable vehicles for a measly $2M
