This abandoned Lincoln Town Car stretch limo has been sitting somewhere in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for a while.
One day, the owner apparently just parked the car and then left it there.
The first problem is the street where the car is parked is quite narrow, and it has been making it difficult for commuters in the city for ages.
The second problem is that no one knows how to go about moving the car.

This isn’t a one-off problem for Philadelphia
Residents of Germantown, a neighborhood in Philadelphia, have often complained about this.
Germantown seems to be a magnet for abandoned cars, including the Lincoln Town Car stretch limo.
No one knows exactly why, but there’s like a ‘pandemic’ of abandoned vehicles.
But because of its size, and because of the location where it’s parked, this limo has been bothering people more than any other vehicle.
About the Lincoln Town Car stretch limo
The car you see here is the stretch limo version of the Lincoln Town Car.
The Town Car has been around pretty much since the dawn of time, closely related (but more premium) to the Ford Crown Vic that just about every police department in the US used before they began switching to Dodge Durangos or Teslas.
The Town Car is also related to the Continental, another Lincoln that’s been around forever.
Unfortunately, even though these two models remained in production for a long time, they’re no longer available.
After decades and several generations, Lincoln recently killed both the Town Car, over 10 years ago, and the Continental, in 2020.
They’ve replaced with a lot of SUVs, including for example the Aviator and, with a bit of luck, they’ll also add gorgeous cars spawning from the L100 Concept (above) in the future.
