    Here's a similar riddle, using three houses and three utilities... sounds like it is an unsolveable riddle unless you use a 'trick' - pass one of the items through one of the cars to another, but that's kind of cheating.. this link explains how it can be solved, the explanation is kind of out of my league.. hope it makes sense to you!
