As others said, both options will likely be equally bad. One of the big problems is the ladder rack. I wonder if you could build brackets to mount the ladder underneath the truck and hide it behind a big air dam. If you could slot it into the front bumper and secure it up in back it might sit snugly and not be any more inconvenient than throwing it on the roof. You'd have to do some testing to make sure it doesn't interfere with the axle, driveshaft, etc.
