Stretch Limo Reduced to Rubble After Bad-A** Tank Rolls Up

Share

Limousine liberals aren’t going to like this at all.

Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Austrian-born actor-turned politician who became the most recent Republican to serve as governor of California, made an  appearance on “Jay Leno’s Garage” Thursday to join in Leno’s well-known affection for automobile creations.

And Schwarzenegger absolutely crushed it.

Literally.

Getting behind the wheel of his very own 1951 M-47 Patton tank, one that was created for the Army during the Korean War and was the same model Schwarzenegger drove during his Austrian army service in the 1960s, Schwarzenegger took on a stretch limousine that had been placed in the tank’s way.

It didn’t go well for the limousine.

Check it out here:

There are no two ways about it. Weighing in at 50 tons, the 28-foot long, 11-foot high tank made short work of the luxury limo.

Would you like to drive a tank over a limo?

Fortunately, Schwarzenegger puts the tank to more productive purposes than just destroying limousines for Jay Leno’s amusement.

Schwarzenegger told the former “Tonight Show” host that he usually uses rides in his tank as a reward for kids in after-school programs he works with.

“When they stay in school their reward is to come out here and drive tanks with me,” he said.

Now, no conservative would consider Schwarzenegger’s political career nearly as successful as his acting career.

And his bad blood with President Donald Trump is too well known to make Schwarzenegger all that popular among the Republican base for the foreseeable future.

But there’s no denying the guy can put on a show when he wants to. He did it as a bodybuilder in his youth. He’s done it almost 40 years in making movies – from Conan to the latest, yet-to-be-released “Terminator” franchise sequel.

And he did it again with Jay Leno and one very luckless stretch limousine.
