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.
Is that someone’s attempt at spelling genre?

You’d think they would rent trailers for this exact reason.
They do rent trailers for this exact reason. Home Depot rents trucks by the hour too.
And they are like $20. Which is like 2 bananas or something
Last one: People who don’t know how to use a truck.
Are you trying to write ‘genre’?
It’s apparently the plural of genus

Home depot has very affordable delivery. Still a pain to create your order online, with how their distribution works.
It’s fine as long as you tell your unsecured load to “stay” before you leave.
good post!
Are these AI? Or really terrible image compression?
Separately, bottom left looks like it would start a fire if they drive long enough dragging that wood on the pavement!
I wish they were fake… these predate AI. People are genuinely that dumb.
These are just the ones that succeeded.
Im in this image and i hate it
I got to dodge some lumber on the way to work the other day.
It was going from rear driver side window to front passenger window, sticking about 3ft into my lane. The driver was “holding” about 20-30 2x4s.
Fun times.
$80 sounds like a lot for a delivery fee, but it’s a hell of a lot cheaper than the wreck and potential medical bills from this shit.
That being said, I’ve done some sketchy hauls with an old Corolla. Never sticking into other lanes though.
Just get a buddy to sit in the back with a hand on it, maybe give it a good “ain’t goin’ nowhere” while they give it a pat.
Seems to work for all the construction crews in my area.
