Dodge Charger Repossession Goes Horribly Wrong - owner tries to drive off the repo truck

https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/research/dodge-charger-repossession-goes-horribly-wrong/ar-AAR0Bv2?ocid=msedgntp


Sometimes you just have to let it go…
Getting your car repossessed isn’t a fun situation, however it’s usually avoidable. However you got into that financial pinch, the worst thing you can do is try fighting the repo guy for the vehicle, a lesson a Dodge Charger owner learned the hard way.

In the included video, you can see a white Dodge Charger hooked up to a repo truck’s boom, which is up in the air several feet. The rear tires of the Mopar are on the boom, the front tires on the pavement. When the video starts the “owner” of the vehicle is already inside and has the engine fired up. That person hits the accelerator and spins the front and rear wheels seemingly uselessly in an attempt to get the car back.


It seems useless, but after doing some damage to the rear bumper and the plastic shrouding on the chassis, the Dodge Charger is… still stuck on the boom. In other words, it does seem to be useless. The video doesn’t last long, so we don’t know how this situation ended, but I’m guessing the Mopar never drove away.
