You could save hundreds on part cost if they allow you to purchase the rack yourself. Just be damn certain you're getting the correct one, which is a task of it's own.

Much of my time during the job is spent hauling things up and down the stairs to the basement or in and out of the storage shed, or running back downstairs when I realize I need something else,or taking a break from standing out in the sun,or using flashlights or work lamps when it gets dark.

Hi all. Sadly, we've decided we need to get rid of this car. It's not a job my father-in-law or I want to tackle and we don't want to pay someone else to do it. I wanted to give folks here in the forum the right of first refusal since you have all been so helpful with it over the years.

Anyone want to make an offer?
Cars I've owned:
- 2015 to current: 2001 Volvo V70 2.4T; 2004 Honda Odyssey
- 2007 to 2015: 2002 Subaru Legacy L Wagon
- 2003 to 2016: 2001 Toyota Corolla LE
- 1999 to 2003: 1994 Toyota Camry LE
