I want to buy a ski-attachment for the winter and am debating whether to go with a roof-mounted rack or a carrier which can be attached to the hitch ?
Can anyone tell me the pros and cons. I personally am inclined towards the roof-mounted. However I have heard that installing the base-carrier(i have the base model which doesnt come with the base-carrier) and the ski-attachment will considerably reduce the mileage. Well I wont be always driving with my ski-rack attached and so am more concerned if just attaching the base-rack will reduce my mileage significantly.
Any inputs/thoughts will be appreciated.
