I already broke one windshield (dropped a 2x4,off the rafters in my garage, thru it!). I don't want to break this one. I need to drive it home, about two hours. I don't have a pickup truck. The biggest vehicle I have is a Taurus Wagon with a roof rack. Any suggestions?

The edge is a much safer way to transport it. Every glass truck hauls it's glass on the edges. I would put the outside of the windshield against the seat back and strap it in with the seat belts and some pillows. I you pull the seat belts all the way out and then let them retract the should lock. It's a feature for using child seats. After you lt them retract all the way they'll unlock again.
