Sooo - anyone here really need advice like the following?

30. Keep an old blanket handy
Protect your car's roof from scratches with an old blanket before tying lumber, bicycles, or luggage to your roof rack.


:roll:

And of course do make sure that your hubcaps are on securely - you did check that this morning right? :smart:

A lot of the suggestions were nothing more than statements of the obvious.
