I took these pictures coming home tonight. Here’s someone with a couple of PT 2x’s sticking out of the passenger window of a Yukon. They were sticking out about 5′.
Talk about hugging the yellow line!
3rd pic is him taking a corner. Couldn’t quite get the shot……….hey, I had to drive too.

And isn't that why God invented the roof rack on such vehicles......
That's what happens when you get those barn door Yukons instead of the lift gate. And cannot tie a knot for the roof rack. A Darwin award contestant and someone you would like to introduce to officer Friendly.
Is this the same person who bought the drywall and had the big box cut it into 4' pieces so she could get it in the SUV? Then could not understand why the hanger wanted an upcharge and why the big box did not want to take it back.

You obviously mis-interpreted this person's intent.
He wasn't bringing home lumber that he had just bought, he was trying out his new invention... "The amazing new bicyclist remover" by Ronco....
The driver is ex-Navy...minesweeping.
I was looking at the first two shots, thinking that the area looks familiar. Route 85, right? In Waterford/Oakdale? And he's turning onto Chesterfireld Road from Rt 85, in Oakdale, right? I live about four miles from that intersection. Wild. Unless there's another Ottos on the corner of Chesterfield road somewhere...

That's it exactly................good eye
You are right - I travel that road often. I'll sure be looking out for him...
Maybe he was on his way to a automobile joisting competition?
I can picture that wood catching on a pole or tree and then it spins wacking the driver in the back of the head. Would make for an interesting accident report.
duck!

Some years ago I was working on a Maybeck house at a four way stop intersection at La Loma and Buena Vista. Went out to get something from my truck, and all of a sudden I heard a truck screech. As I looked over all the lumber on a pickup's racks neatly slide into the intersection. Poor guy, would have helped, but the boss was waiting!
So many bicycles so little time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So that's the guy knocking down all the mailboxes?
Can you zoom in on that plate?

. . . so why are we assuming the driver is a "he" . . . . . . ?
Guy is informal for persons of either sex but this "person" could be found guilty of not only killing innocent people along the road but could face federal prosecution for attempting to dismantle mail boxes..........

LOL,
Are you sure you don't mean "look who's back people?"

If the driver is a she, we have one heck of a case of #### envy going on here

Geez.... I feel so silly. I never thought to load my truck up perpindicular. Think of how much more stock I could carry. I never knew.View Image
12' dimensional lumber fits inside a Suburban quite readily - ends on the dashboard - just don't hit the brakes hard...
are Yukons shorter?
"are Yukons shorter?"
Yes. By about 18" or so.
Yukon XL is the current designation GMC uses for it's Chevy Suburban equivalent.
I hope like hell no one is ridding there bicycle along the shouder of that road when this guy comes by!
