RE: [Paddlewise] vehicle for sea kayakers

I own a Ford Taurus and an F-150.  With the Taurus I keep an old furniture
pad in the trunk.  I throw it across the back of the trunk and the window
and only have to get the bow trunk high.  Its an easy push to load it on the
roof.  The F-150 has a headache rack that is a real struggle for me to get
my 60lb kayak on by myself.  I have gotten to the point where I put it on a
trailer or will let it hang out the back for short stretches.
