My plan for Alaska is to hotel AND tent. Tenting means; tent, two sleeping bags and two sleeping pads at a minimum. Even with my super lite super compact backpacking equipment I don't think I can manage all that in the trunk. So, some type of luggage rack (no trailers) is gonna be needed. On reading the forum it sounds like the current mounting of luggage racks sometimes causes cracks in the trunk.
Has anyone came up with a better mousetrap on luggage racks? Better mounting, mounting to something otherthan the lid, reinforcing the lid, etc?
