It finally took the truck and a few pulls to finally just rip them out.

Toe rope kept pulling off (actually skinned the bark off, but after 4-5 tries, they finally came out.

I know of some nieghborhoods that they planted oak trees not more then 4 feet from the sidewalks and the roots just buckle them up.
Sounds like some hard work GD.
