Those three starboard elevators are used for flight operations and can also lower down to wharf level for resupply. I'd guess that they can each move twenty cars at one time. I know the San Diego naval base fairly well and have not seen anything that would allow a car to be driven up there. Do they "lift" them all? - that would take a long time and a lot of fuss.
Elevators, the same way they do the planes.

We also brought back a ton of motorcycles from a deployment that included Japan, along with stereos, tvs, etc. Nothing at all unusual about this.
Great big cranes, which stow almost out of sight when not in use.
