Burned-out Hummer limo spotted during wildfires in California
Cause or effect? While driving home from Supercar Sunday at VCR, we spotted this burned out Hummer H2 limo on the side of the road near the heart of the wildfires in Southern California.
Was this behemoth the cause of, or alternatively, a victim of the fires? Perhaps neither. It may have just been a coincidence that the lengthy SUV lay smoldering on the shoulder near thousands of acres of brush near Mulholland Drive. Perhaps. But one thing's for sure – the party's over for this limo. Here's hoping that anyone that happened to be inside made it out safely.

The guy in the back looks fine. Except for the hair loss.

Hair loss aside...though he single-handedly doused the raging H2 conflagration by...micturation.
- A true (bald) hero.

I was going to say, it's a start.

Wow, at first I really thought it was someone sitting in the back - Which really confused me.
Thankfully it is someone standing behind/walking around the Hummer. Probably making sure it got thoroughly burnt, to get that insurance check.

I would've expected the tires to go up in smoke as well.

Barbeque: that's a good use for a Hummer limo.

You mean before, or after, the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

Probably someone torched it for insurance money and tried to blame it on the wildfires.

I wonder how many people stuck with car leases they can't afford but don't want to ruin their credit will resort to parking near fire areas in the hope their vehicles find a sudden combustible demise.

Perhaps the margarita machine fell into the hot-tub and sparked a fire?
