Why would you need to shove it IN car, when you can carry it ON car?

What an absolutely bonkers suggestion. Do you legitimately think this solves the problem?

If someone actually did this, strapped drywall, leaking garbage bags, and other random garbage on top of their vehicle, there would be a post on here so fucking fast calling the driver a moron.

To get a roof rack installed on my car would be over $1000. I checked.

You can’t make this argument while also stating in other comments that a truck is too expensive.

I’m not arguing that. You have a fair point.

But my argument about a use case for a truck isn’t about MY truck (I don’t have one), it was merely about the valid use for owning a truck.

I’m getting by right now by wrecking the inside of my car (it’s already done). I looked at getting a roof rack, but the quote I got was around $1400. But that only would help with getting new drywall. Not broken up garbage drywall, and wouldn’t help with bags of garbage.

How?

on my car

Although maybe your car doesn’t have rack mounts from factory. For lada it’s about 20€ and tightening few bolts.
