    Nice. I could do that, SF is only 20 miles away. wouldn’t bee too hard to con the chauffer into going down the wrong street :D Isn’t there one of a large RV going down lombard too somewhere? I drove my VW down it once, someone was taking a picture at me of some drawing on top of their car.

    It’s not how long you make it, it’s how you make it long.

    ” A stretch limo SUV….BRILLIANT!”

    See, I told you we should have gotten the jacked-up monster truck version, but noooo… you insisted on the low rider.

    Photo super marrante!!! Il y a des strech-limos comme ça avec jaccuzi à l’intérieur et toît ouvrant. Donc tu te promènes avec le cul dans l’eau chaude qui tourbillonne, la musique joue au boutte, tu as un verre à la main et, de l’autre main, tu envoies des bye-bye aux gens sur les trottoirs via le toît ouvert. Débile…

    hahahahhahahahahaa aular……..akkuru eru þeir að keyra suv limma niður þessa brekku!!!!!þeir eru bara helvítis gargandi blábjánar!!!

    i love hearing the treehuggers make fun of mass transit.

    perhaps 10 normal limos or 20 taxi’s would have been better.

    obviously the more douchebags you can fit into one limo the better.

    still.
    funny photo.

    i just think the joke is ultimately on the idea of mass transit.

    Weird - when I’ve walked down that hill, I have never experienced this problem.

  25. 25 JónM

    I bet they were listening to Sir Mix A Lot, “My Posse On Broadway

    On a side note, this is where hydraulics are a must IMO.

  27. 27 Hunchback

    HAW, I wonder who got “stuck” with the bill for that. I don’t who is the bigger dumbass, the driver for trying to make it or the passengers for asking. Ladies and Gentlemen, the adult teeter totter. Let’s all play “Titantic” on the gas gussler.

  28. 28 Sean Reddy

    Jeff Nelson was in that limo… how funny was that

  29. 29 Charles Glaeser

    I heard Sean Reddy was operating the GPS…………. !!!!!

    Það eru stórir draumar til……..

    …Probably owned by the limo mogul who lives at Connecticut and Mariposa. Dude has lived on the hill for years and should know better.

  32. 32 notconcerned

    I happened to be walking by when the vehicle was first attempting to come over the crest. I should have stayed for the party. However, I do feel sorry for the asphalt.

  33. 33 PotreroHillParents.org

    That is an awesome photo! But where are the prom queens? :)

  34. 34 Moonbeam Skydancer

    How to turn a (probably) $50-60K limo into a teeter-totter.
