Also not in this thread until now, but two thoughts:

First: A car can be "the means of production", if you're a driver for Uber/Lyft.

Second: the issue I understand is that this website isn't letting one person take fruit from a tree, but treating all such things as open invitations for all persons to take from the tree. To your analogy, that isn't taking a single Model T car, but seizing the factory and stating you're making cars for the entire city with it.

One could argue that if the City needs Model Ts and you're not doing anything useful with the factory, one should reprimand it to benefit society
