Re: why you need a roof rack!
Cool idea....but would the bristles from the tree not whip around in the wind during the drive and scratch the daylights out of your roof?

Makes me think one needs a clear bra on the roof!

Re: why you need a roof rack!
they hat the tree tied up tight. the only problem was that a couple of drops of sap got on the front and rear glass. it took a good bit of elbow grease to get them off. no harm done though.

Re: why you need a roof rack!
Did you attach a wreath to each wheel? Doesn't that add to unsprung weight and wind resistance?
