Love the way the SS moved a bus to block the cameras as they employed some super secret magic decoder ring Batman belt tool thingee to free the (most likely) empty limo.

High Centered....what a rookie goof.   HAHAHAHA

The bus also would block any incoming fire when changing vehicles.  

Come to think of it, an armored Hummer would be a much better vehicle to insure survivability of the occupants.  Protection and the ability to use most any escape route available.

Let the Decoy ride in the limo.  I'll take the HumVee.

I saw a car do the same thing yesterday as it was leaving the Dairy Queen parking lot......stopped it cold.....no kidding............

Something broke.  Look how far into the wheel well the front tire is. 

FWIW, the thing supposedly DOES have air/hydraulic lowrider suspension.

Not necessarily.  When it high centered, the curb became a pivot point and the weight of the engine up front could lever the rear wheels off the ground losing traction and making it immobile.

If the high center was very far behind the center of gravity of the car, an unusual percentage of the body weight would be on the front wheels.

The high centering may have caused something to break, but I don't think something breaking cause the high center.

You can see the rear "bounce" a bit as the weight settles on the front wheels.

There was a loud clank just as the car high centered and stopped suddenly.  It is too far forward for the rear suspension control arms, and I would think the armor plating would be smooth, so I'm guessing a drive shaft hanger bearing support.

A car that long has a two-piece drive shaft (provided that it is RWD). The clanking could have been one of the slip-joints on the shaft pulling out of the trans, or the trans mount itself. This would render the car immobile.

After looking over and over, it does appear that the wheels actually retract into the wheel-wells more so than the weight of the car coming down over them.
