My son had to remove some thinset from concrete. An hour or 2 by hand and he knew that was not the way to go.
We loaded up my Craftsman 2 hp compressor and hauled it from my place to his. Then I rigged a temporary 240V receptacle for it in the garage. Luckily I had extra hose. I have an old long barrel CP air hammer (actually sold under the Craftsman brand but it has CP cast into the housing) and a wide scraper blade chisel. He about wore that chisel out, but there was no thinset left anywhere !
Sounds like the OP figured it out for his vehicle.
Yah, you dont want to do too much concrete with a sledge or hand chisel. We have a good rental place. Last time we did concrete used a Bosch Brute 60 lb. electric breaker. Its heavy and is a brute. Also rented a Milwaukee 2" SDS hammer drill/breaker. Half the weight but it worked surprising well for cleaning and trimming up
