We Got a Bigger Shop! What's The Plan? Cleaning Up & Moving Things Over

What happens here

The team proceeds with moving the remaining heavy equipment and vehicles. This includes transferring car lifts (BendPak brand) onto an open trailer and other vehicles to an enclosed trailer. A challenge arises when the Monte Carlo ('Elvis') repeatedly fails to start due to an unplugged O2 sensor and a weak battery. They troubleshoot by plugging in the O2 sensor and using a jump pack from another vehicle's auxiliary battery (a new one from 'Elvis's' twin sister, the Escalade) to get it running and loaded into the enclosed trailer.

Goal: Relocate all remaining large items and vehicles to the new shop.
