I seem to remember that some rural fire chief replaced his SUV with a pickup truck and equipped it with one of those multi ton wenches. It was mentioned that he used it more to move cars out of the way of fire engines and fire hydrants than anything else.

Not sure how a very large female helps in that task.

That’s nothing. When I was in the Marine Corps, someone blocked the exit to a free to park lot. Me and about 6 other Marines picked up and moved the persons car out of the way. For inconveniencing everyone, we moved the car perpendicularly between two broken down vehicles in the lot.

They should put Hillary in the Pirates of the Caribbean Ride at Disneyland. We want the Redhead!
Oh that’s right, they just did the PC thing and no more Wench Auction.

It’s just a fart car, when I was in high school, football players routinely picked up the coaches Fiat and carried it to block his door with it.

I was walking thru Norfolk Naval Shipyard one day when I saw their solution to an illegally parked car in a parallel space.
The flatbed was there, and a forklift rolled up. Forked the car out of the space, then it was winched up onto the flatbed and taken away.

When I had an Austin Healy Sprite and a parking place too short to back and fill, I pulled the nose in and my brother and I picked up the rear a few inches and paralleled it to the curb.

Doesn’t surprise me. I’ve been in the fire service for 35 years. Firefighters don’t know the meaning of “can’t”. They always find a way.
