FYI: Home Depot sells ratchet straps and rags for less than $10. First time I made this mistake with my car I just padded the roof with rags and ratchet strapped the shit to the roof.
The next time I went I had crossbars and used the same ratchet straps.
I’ve hauled more shit in my $16k sedan on $200 crossbars than 90% of $90k+ superduty pickup owners
I recently was scrolling through doordash or Uber eats and saw that Home Depot was a choice. Out of genuine curiosity, I went and looked at if they had lumber for sale. Sure enough you can buy 4x4s that are 20 ft long. I was very tempted to try and order one to see what the doordash driver would even do with it.
