Any suggestions for luggage racks/cargo carriers for convertibles? I was looking for suggestions for luggage racks or cargo carriers for a 2005 PT Cruiser convertible. I found the kind that attach to the trailer hitch like this one: http://www.etrailer.com/pc-CC114~52017.htm The only problem with the type pictured above that the hitch from Chrysler is only rated for a tongue weight of 100 lbs. If the carrier already weighs 50 lbs it seems like a lot of trouble to go through to carry 50 lbs. I asked about changing the hitch to a proper class one hitch that would be rated for the full 200 lbs tongue weight but I've had a couple of places tell me that it's a bad idea to exceed the recommended 100 lb limit set by Chrysler. (because the extra weight may mess up the suspension/ the steering etc.) Does anyone have any alternate ideas, products, suggestions? Thank you both for the info & opinions.

How do you attach a rooftop cargo carrier with 4 straps to a 02 Ford Escape luggage rack? The straps are on the sides and the metal clips are shaped to fit between the door and the frame of a sedan but it's apparent that the luggage rack is the only way it could possibly work on the escape. I hooked it to the inside lip of the track on the Escape's rack, but I'm worried that lip isn't big enough. It's an older Sears rooftop carrier. Thanks! The rack isn't in the way, I have to use it because the clips are "j" shaped and they won't fit the large lip of the rear door frames.

Are tie downs on top of a car safe? We are traveling back from Florida to Virginia, and we ended up with a lot more things to bring back home. Instead of getting a cargo carrier on top of our SUV, my husband suggested we just tie down the suit cases with tie downs and with those bungee cords. I am reluctant to do it, but I've seen it done before....my point is, I just don't want to lose anything down the road, and I don't REALLY want to get a cargo carrier, because we wouldn't use it THAT much.

Traveling internationally with a cat? Cabin or cargo? I'm traveling from Morocco to the U.S. with a cat next week and I'm incredibly nervous - I've taken care of all the requirements, so that isn't an issue, but I'm really concerned about the flight. First, we have a layover in Europe - so is it safe to put the cat in cargo? She's small enough (as is her carrier) for the cabin but we weren't able to reserve ahead (long story) for her place - also, she's calm but meows A LOT and I'm worried about taking her in the cabin because of that. Lastly, should I give her a tranq or not? It's expensive through our vet, so I don't want to buy it unless it's a necessity. Can anyone ease my fears about cat travel? Dragonfly: They have a special cargo area for pets that is ventilated and well-lit. She's not going with the suitcases! Wildatheart: Sorry, this is a permanent move and I have no other options.

Stowing luggage in a truck bed? Hello, What's the best method when putting luggage in a truck bed to prevent it from getting wet. Driving 12 hours down to florida so I am pretty sure we will hit a storm or two. Could I just buy a car cargo carrier and just sit it in the bed of the truck, I would think the weight of the luggage would keep it in place. Would a 20 dollar tarp work. Any suggestions would be welcomed. Thanks.
