September 21, 200817 yr I have a Jeep truck that I use to haul lumber for home improvement projects. I have to use my 91 Subaru sports sedan to haul anything longer than a 12 ft 2x6. Yesterday I brought home a 14 ft. I know my car is good for 16 ft. of lumber, if I'm careful not to get too close to traffic signs and pedestrians, on either side.

September 22, 200817 yr Author Yes, with a 16-footer mounted laterally, I think that you are wise to check either side very carefully.:-\ Yup, 2 to 3 ft sticking out of the trunk and 2 to 3 ft sticking out of the passenger side window. Looks like Subaru on a stick going down the road, but it works.
September 22, 200817 yr Author pork chop on a stick.....sorry off topic. Hmmmm....I'll have try that.
September 23, 200817 yr My subaru hauls . . . tools. I load my folding hoist, and engine stand, two boxes of tools, my oil catch pan, a work stool, a coolant catch pan, my creeper, my floor jack and two jackstands, as well as a drip pan in the back (and still have room left over), then drive to a jobsite and pull an engine, reseal it, and reinstall it in three days or less. . . Hmmmm, I wonder if this has anything to do with my struts being so worn. . . .

September 24, 200817 yr Mine's a wagon. Could never get an engine hoist into a sedan. They don't fold up that much. . .
September 24, 200817 yr Author I even hauled a sheet of plywood one time. Course, I had to cut it up in rather small pieces.
