Borderline Insanity: Jeep Cherokee Caught Sitting On The Fence To Mexico


A smuggling attempt turned into a borderline disaster when two Mexicans entrapped themselves and their Jeep Cherokee on top of the 14 foot high fence that separates Arizona from Mexico.

The S.O.B. smugglers wanted to get N.O.B. using a ramp. They should have tested the setup first. The Cherokee high-centered with the rear in Mexico and the front end hovering over the U.S.A., CBS5 Arizona reports.
Realizing the futility of their mission, the smugglers fled. The Border Patrol seized Jeep and ramp.
Getting snagged by much lesser bumps in the road is quite common. Even the Commander-in-Chief is not immune.
Note to the smugglers: The U.S. and Mexico are part of NAFTA, and Jeep Cherokees can be brought back stateside without incurring customs duty. Or perhaps it wasn’t a Jeep they were smuggling?

- MRF 95 T-Bird Back when the Corolla consisted of a wide range of body styles. This wagon, both four door and two door sedans, a shooting brake like three door hatch as well as a sports coupe hatchback. All of which were on the popular cars on the road where I resided.
- Wjtinfwb Jeez... I've got 3 Ford's and have been a defender due to my overall good experiences but this is getting hard to defend. Thinking the product durability testing that used to take months to rack up 100k miles or more is being replaced with computer simulations that just aren't causing these real-world issues to pop up. More time at the proving ground please...
- Wjtinfwb Looks like Mazda put more effort into sprucing up a moribund product than Chevy did with the soon to be euthanized '24 Camaro.
- Wjtinfwb I've seen worse on the highways around Atlanta, usually with a refrigerator or washer wedged into the trunk and secured with recycled twine...
- Wjtinfwb Surprising EB Flex hasn't weighed in yet on it being the subject of a recall...

Does that Cherokee have an aftermarket hood? Or is that just what they look like in Mex?
The video, from alternate angles clearly shows the limo only high centered because it suffered a sudden depressurization of it's air suspension. Cause unknown. The SS has perpetuated the "it high centered" idea to cover-up the fact that the air suspension is a weak spot. At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter because this is only the "diplomatic" limo, not The presidential limo.
