Most policies are covered to towing to the place fo your choice....get him to take you home. He won't like the look of the ply on your roof so will put them on the back of his truck You did want creative idea, right ?<br><b>References : </b><br> make sure you’re signed up to a car recovery company ( we have AA, RAC in the UK )

End to end and side to side, at least two ties each direction. Drive back roads and slowly . I wouldn't try more than 3 maybe 4 sheets. We have done it before. Make sure it is secure before you start. Be sure to put a blanket or padding on the roof to protect it. You can bring the ropes into the car and slam the doors tightly and tie them together inside to keep it tight.<br><b>References : </b><br> You should to be able to tie it on, tightly.

Or if you want to save a little find someone with a truck that likes beer, a twelve pack has a lot of bargaining power. Make sure it's ice cold.<br><b>References : </b><br> Lowes or Home depot usually have a truck available by the hour.

Or lay them flat to see if they will fit. You can secure it to the top by using a bungee cord or rope tied over the top and down into the inside (through the windows) the people at the lumber yard should be able to help you, and if one of the workers has a pick-up truck, they'll probably let you use it if you give them your name, address, insurance info, etc, and gas it up.<br><b>References : </b><br> Take all the seats out you can in your SUV.

I have done this with a Ford Explorer with no problem. The lift gate won't close but I tied it down and tied the plywood into the truck.<br><b>References : </b><br> You could try to carry the plywood in the SUV (tilt it at a 45 degree angle).

You couldnt place the plywood on top of the SUV and secure it without bending the plywood, and by securing it tight enough you could end up snapping the wood when hitting a bump or something that could jar the wood.<br><b>References : </b><br> Accept the fact that you need to rent a truck.
