OK, you are what I mean? How can it be "turn key" if you have to spend 3 days to put it on?!

Once upon a time, a local shop did offer such services. I would drive/tow a Vanagon in with a Wasserboxer. A few days later, I would go over and settle my bill. Hop in the cab and drive away. Now that's "turn key". You turn the key in the ignition and go.
