Cool what system did you use on top of your car.

Damaging the car is not a major concern. My wife has owned it for a long time was her fist car when she was 16. I plan on running it till it dies .
Thinking of using a yakima system.

where do you store your yak/trailer?

I had all Thule. The saddles I used (and still use on the trailer) is the Glide-N-Set. Works flawlessly. I the entire rig garaged, ready to roll

Nice do you pull the trailer with that car ? Might go that route is it expensive to register a trailer out there?

I carry my Prangler 14 on my Durango using nothing but a pair of Hully rollers bolted to the rear bar. A door mat protects the truck during loading. Here's the rig from the rear...

And the rig loaded, prior to attaching tie-downs...

I've carried it for hundreds of miles at interstate speeds with no problem and a surprisingly small hit on gas mileage.

I actually tow it with a 2012 Prius and I still get 49 MPG from Rancho Cucamonga to San Diego and back. It was about $24 to register.
