How would Mach-E be towed if parked in a garage with front in?

[circatee]

While reading another post, someone mentioned possible things to consider if the Mach E ever needed to be towed.
With that in mind, if the Mach E is parked in a garage (front in), and it needed to be towed, how on earth would it be done?

Thanks in advance for answering some of my daft, yet, interesting questions!

The tow operator should have wheel dollies to put under all 4 wheels and the car will roll right out.

Edit: something like this-

VEVOR Wheel Dolly, 1500 LBS Car Wheel Dolly, Mechanic Lift with Ratcheting Foot Pedal, Heavy-Duty Car Tire Dolly, Ratchet Type Tire Skates, for Vehicle Car Auto Repair Moving https://a.co/d/3KiJL9F

...ah, they'd jack it, insert the dollies, and then roll it out? Got it!

Yep, just be sure they jack the vehicle up at the designated points. Not just with MMEs, but other EV owners have had either themselves or someone else jack the car up by the battery pack shield and it can cause damage. It's not a terrible idea to review the MME jack points, along with the appropriate way to hook up a winch if needed, since there are some holes in the pack shield that look like they could be winch points, but are aluminum and it will (likely) tear the shield.

Thanks for that. I have actually already watched a few videos on the jacking points and the two holes at the front for towing. Some online have some stickers that one can install to make it very clear the jacking points/towing. I might look into those...

Most dollys lift the tires as you put them on, no jacking needed.

Unless it's completely dead and you can't put it in "N", pushing it is quite easy.

...thanks for sharing. It is good to know, Ford and Co. have shared how to properly tow these cars. After all, they are not bloody cheap!
