Well here is the thing. When it is just me I put it inside the trunk or back seat no problem. But when I'm with my friends and we have 3 or 4 bikes in my like 2door it is really hard to fit all of that in the trunk (though it is possible) but we won't be able to fit other stuff in. We are going on a week long road trip and im Thor sure what the best idea is. A regular trunk rack like I have is kind of out of te question. They are very weak and with 3 bikes, it is one good sized bump away from scattering them all over the freeway in traffic. Really my only options are putting them on the roof upside down and like ratchet strap them on (staying a stream lined as possible) so that we can put our stuff in the trunk OR hanging them out of the trunk with the trunk open. Or of course I can completely disassemble them and fit them
In the trunk the best we can but we may not have enough trunk space for like camping gear and stuff. Here is a pic of how we normally do it.

Is that causing to much drag with the trunk open?
