The vid posted by DoW has extra audio that the on I just watched on FB didn't have. The car in front went clunk first and garnered an "oooh" from the crowd. That should have been a signal that the limo wouldn't make it for sure.

How has this not been a problem before? That limo didn't look all that low.

It can withstand an RPG and most decent sized artillery. 

The windows are like 1-2 inches thick from what I have heard. 

IT just makes him look like a dumbass.  Which makes us look like dumbasses.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Sometimes...

appearances can be deceiving...

other times not so much.

 a completely different way than you, you will be open to understand how that
 perspective
    is even more amazing than yours."

Was this turning political?  Will you have to suspend yourself DP?  Not that I don't agree with you though!   ;D

The 2012 Presidential limousine promises to be even lower to the ground and thus cause more embarrassing hilarity:

Were that car truly a "beast", it would not have lurched. It would have torn that driveway up for daring to attempt to slow it.
Boo! Boo for being a lame beast.

Considering there was an "ooh" when the previous vehicle clanked, could it me some security measure was malfunctioning (like a blockade pole or other physical barrier that dropped for special purposes?  According to the article, it is built on a GM truck chassis, which even as a 2WD, would have decent ground clearance unless major modifications were made to allow for more interior room resulting in the lower belly mentioned.
