Cute answer, but the reality would be more like:

"Comrade Lieutenant, there are many cars between us and objective!"

"Make like Bigfoot, and drive right over them."

followed by sound of crunching glass, bending metal, and screaming

I have more confidence that the resistance will be AR-15s, mobile cellular
phones, and BMWs -- the yuppies have more to lose than the good ole boys.
