What is amazing is that many of these limos are assembled , modified and stretched by prison workers in penitentiaries
Wonder how many of those prisoners have escaped hiding in those cars ? A real gadgetman
I”ll bet Karl Rove had one of those pickup-style jobbies take him back to Texas. Yee-haw! I wonder if they come with gun racks (lockable, for when President Cheney is riding).
Amazing but not always functional vehicles. You wouldn’t want to do a road trip in one of the stretches.
I’ve tried but I can’t come up with anything more useful than one of these vehicles.
There’s just not end in sight for bad taste…
What’s amused me for years is how the entire point of a limousine has been lost. It’s supposed to be a luxurious, but also refined and tasteful mode of transport.
I don’t give a rat’s patootie how many glitzy geegaws and trinkets you stick on it, a fuckin’ Humvee is NOT a luxury car, neither are Ford and Chevy SUVs or pickup trucks. Putting lipstick on a pig doesn’t transform the pig into Anna Nico… – oops, guess it does. Let’s drop that particular metaphor…
They may have stronger underpinnings, which help bear the weight of all that gimmickry, but trucks are not Caddys or Mercs. Besides, a real limousine is room enough for 2 or three couples to be extremely pampered, not a goddamn disco on 4 or 26 wheels for you and 40 of your coke-huffing and Cristal-swilling acquaintances…
Shit like that is what happens when idiots come into big money, something Nature never intended. 😉

But you have to give them that they’re pretty creative. Nice find, hhopper.
