: Don't feel so bad there... a full 4x8 section of anything won't fit
: in my Outback, and I'm not keen on tying a big airfoil onto the
: roof. I'm already planning on having to cut the MDO for the
: formers down to 4x4 sections to get it home. My local
: lumberyard's more than willing to do the cutting for me.

: I suppose I could rent a pickup for a few hours from Lowe's or Home
: Depot. God knows I have no reason yet to own a pickup (not keen
: on filling a truck's gas tank on a regular basis). My Outback
: does well enough for most things, so I get by.

Well me too, normally I use the kayak trailer for the big things, but it's on blocks in the back yard for the winter. Was a choice of using the trailer or putting the SUV in the garage, the car won :)

I really miss having a truck, until I think of filling it with gas every week. The Santa Fe takes 16 gallons the truck took 36 for about the same distance. I can put up with the minor convience.
