A few options...
As suggested use a fluid suction device to remove the oil through the dipstick. It removes more oil than pulling the plug because it goes to the extreme bottom of the pan.
Use a T type ratchet handle on the plug so that the torque is evenly applied. Load up the torque to loosen the plug and at the same time have someone strike the T handle directly over the plug. Be careful because if this works it will release very suddenly and you may smash your knuckles.
Carefully grind the head off of the plug to release the friction on the threads and then use a punch to turn the part left in the drain hole. If you cannot get the remaining plug out after grinding the head off, a new pan will be necessary.
Take it to a shop with a lift, so much more can be done just by being able to get the proper leverage.
Please keep us posted and close out the thread. Good luck!!!
