Is is possible? How?

I have coolant leak and want to just push it into the garage but can't get it to move.

Release park brake - put lever to the N (Neutral) position.

So.... I'm just not strong enough? I'm not muscle bound, but 6'2", 205# and moderately active. I get it to move maybe an inch, and then it feels like there's a brick under a tire.

Neutral, 2wd, no brake, maybe wiggle the forward/reverse pedals

Yeah, there must be something going on. On flat smooth concrete with brake off and transmission in neutral, mine will easily push, even if I just lean on it. (OOPS!)

That may be it. I ended up just starting and driving it, but will see if I can get it to move for future reference.

Thanks
