I love all this monday morning quarterbacking...lol
I dont know if there is an alternative entrance/exit, but perhaps this is the same one they came in? Meaning if they successfully made it the first time, albeit with some grinding, why wouldnt they expect to make it out?
I'm kind of suprised that there is even anything hanging down that can get caught like that. I would have figured it would have been designed with skid plates to avoid issues like that.

Too bad they weren't using the latest "Beast." That big boy definitely wouldn't have got caught up in that situation.
Needless to say, the Secret Service was reporting that the President was not in that presidential limo.

In that 2nd video TIMS01 posted it sure looks like the front suspension did collapse... Take a look at the distance from the white wall on the tire to the fenderwell as the car approaches the top of the driveway, then look at it the instant the car stops... looks like its riding several inches lower when it stops than when it was moving...
You can also hear some kind of grinding noise at 0:40.

you see this car has hydrolic suspension that is ride height adjustable .. what you see is my guess the driver ****ing up and lowering the suspension not raising it .. coupled that with the weight aswell i mean you can hear the mettal armor underneath hitting the rail that the gate slides on.... my guess they did not rais it up and keep driving us just incase they ****ed something up .. but meh who knows all we can do is speculate lolol

It makes MORE sense that the reason the front tires look pushed up into the fender wells, is that with all that WEIGHT resting completely on the front end, it's overwhelming the suspension. Unless you're seeing something I'm not, the rear tires looked like they come completely off the ground with the weight focused to the front before they come back down and barely touch the ground.
