Saw the thread about the washing nightmares and it made me remember a couple pics I had to snap on cell phone camera while driving the last couple days.
Day 1: Saw an older Mercedes Benz C280 with about 3 sheets of plywood strapped to the roof! Not only was this probably scraping the paint at every hint of accelleration and braking, but the thing had harsh looking ropes tied around the mirrors then shut into the back doors making an X over the plywood sheets on the roof. There was no towel or anything between the paint and wood. I cringed... Kinda hard to see in the pic but thats it:

Two Days Later: I see it again! This time pulling out of menards with a variety of huge long peices of PVC pipe out the sunroof! This guy must be doing some sort of home improvement, but honestly.. Go borrow a truck!

Anyone else see something like this?
