eli5 those rapid Repo trucks

344 views

So watching videos of these high speed repos where the dude activates the lift while he is backing up and lifts the vehicle in seconds and off he goes. So, if a vehicle is in Park or has E-brake on, how are the wheels moving? And what’s keeping the towed vehicle on?

Most cars are front wheel drive. They pick it from the front end and park doesn’t matter. If the hand brake is set, that will drag on the back wheels, but they can disconnect it once they made their escape.
