Grassley hasn't been able to drive a car in 20 years.

Grassley, for some perspective's sake, was born the year of FDR's first inaugural, perched in the Senate a decade before the first WWW files got posted onto the Internet, has naturally filed for reelection (9th term) in 2028. Should he be reelected it would be at the age of 95, with completion at the age of 101, when, presumably, a tenth term may be in the offing.
Situation normal in Iowa, yessiree.

as well as making the bureau buy a fleet of flashy armored BMWs so he didn't have to ride around in the Chevrolet Suburbans typically used by FBI directors.
This makes sense, BMW has a superior ride, get away index, and fuel economy.
How can you be for the environment, and complain about this?

A quick check of the googles reveals a used classic Klown Kar might be had for as little as 7 grand. Such a deal and perfect for Ka$h.

Twenty minutes yipping to one member of the Cowards' Caucus, another twenty yapping with some other crook, Christ, these bastards are going to kill poor Mitch with all these phone calls.

I'd hesitate to call them perks, because that appellation may indicate something that he may have been entitled to receive.
imo, he is abusing the office. Scheduling meetings in places where he seems to want to be a tourist.
