To the frame? Over the tires? Through the wheels?

use tire straps that are made for that purpose.

Tow trucks use chain binders with hooks to the frame

You can strap it anyway you want as long as you slap it and say "That aint going anywhere"

4 friends each holding on to a corner of the car with one hand and the truck bed with the other.

Just put the parking brake on. That's what it's for.

Try to hook the frame on the four corners with 2" ratchet straps or order these

Use 4 chains 2 on the front hooked to the suspension and 2 on back hooked to suspension with these to tighten it

Go to the bumper, but not the metal portion, make sure you hook to the plastic.

Also, leave the car in neutral.
