Grounds for divorce??
Because of parking issues I don't drive my vette to work anymore. I live for the weekends to take her out. At work, I spent most of today in the forum, reading and looking at the pix, anticipating my weekend driving. However, when I pull up in front of my house, my husband, who is away for the weekend, has his car parked behind my Vette so I can't get it out! Finally got hold of him on his cell phone and asked, "where is the jeep key? I want to take my car out." His response: "Ahhhhh, in my pocket". aarrggghhhh

Call the cops. Report a stolen car in your driveway. They'll tow it away.
You're free!!!

Can you say AAA? "Ummm, I lost my key and I need you to move this piece of iron out onto the street. No locksmith needed, thank you."

I'm not a lawyer, but I'd bet that's grounds for justifiable homicide in many states.

Go to Wal-Mart, get a tow strap, hook it to your daily drive and yank the jeep out of the way. It'll be cheaper than a tow truck and more satisfying too.

I'm in the same boat - don't drive the Vette to work because of parking issues and related issues.....so I feel your pain!
Is it an automatic Jeep? If so - your only choice is tow that thing out of the way. If it's a stick, drop it in neutral and push......
And then tell your hubby that if he leaves you stuck like that again, you'll stuff a rag in the open gas tank and light a match!
(Of course I'm kidding, but make him get you an extra key!
)

AAA member? Towing less than 5 miles is free - tow it out of the driveway, then back into the spot it should be in

Hot wire that bad boy and drive it into a ditch! That will teach your thoughtless, coldhearted, and inconsiderate spouse!
