As part of my ongoing kitchen renovation, one of the last items is to replace an old Formica counter (that [personal profile] deyo helped me patch up, four years ago) with a new stainless steel countertop. The shops that make these are in south SF. I can either pay them another $200 for delivery to Mountain View, or pick it up myself. Fine, except it is 9' long and the max. cargo length in my minivan is 8'. Do any of my local friends have a full-size van or truck that could hold a 9' x 2' piece of sheet metal, flat (no edges leaning on edges)? Alternatively, I could probably rent a cargo van for about $80-100 given the mileage.

Could you bungie it down as far as you could, and drive it that way?

Door bounces are a problem, given door-lift springs and bungee elasticity. Maybe with a wooden brace against the door...
