For whatever it's worth. I have been driving Chevy TrailBlazers since 02. Decent gas mileage around 20mpg overall. Very reliable no problems with the 3 I have leased and I drive A LOT!! You can fit a 10 foot rod completely inside without bending it.
Now for the roof racks. Back in 92 I bought a pair of Yakama ski racks with the locks. I have had them on 6 different vehicles in 14 years. Same racks and I have done nothing to them except spray with WD-40. Bryan, Spence and I go to the Block and have had 6 rods on the roof with reels, in the racks. This year we eack took 3 rods so we had 9 rods on the roof but we had to take the reels off.
#^^^^^^& bought a pair of Yakamas for his truck last year and he loves them. You can put the reels seat under the locking part of the rack and then the only way they can steal anything is using a hacksaw.
