[quote=Anonymous]Please help me figure out the best way to get my incoming freshman to his school. It's a 10hr drive (at least), so we plan to break up the drive with a stopover en route. That would also give us some time in the afternoon before move-in day to pick up supplies. I'd been assuming that our Honda Pilot would give us plenty of space, but suddenly realizing that's probably not the case. My kid is pretty minimalist, and we can ship stuff to the school or to a local store. Still, with 4 tall people in the car and a bit of luggage for the rest of us, it's looking pretty tight. So would you: 1) Take 2 cars? 2) Rent a monster SUV or minivan (does a minivan really offer much more space than a large SUV?) 3) Get a rooftop carrier installed (dealership is quoting $1100 for roof rails & cross bars, plus $500+ for a carrier)? 4) Other ideas?
