Is there a license plate on that trailer? As small as it is it needs to be registered in most states and toll roads, bridges, tunnels etc. will charge extra for it.

That follows my findings. Here's a snap of my Westie with trailer:  http://s16.photobucket.com/albums/b7/misterpolak/Misc%20VW%20nuttiness/?action=view&current=trailer-1.jpg

> I too had noticed the drop in gas mileage with the roof rack on. I decided to buy a little motorcycle trailer for the things I don't want in the van. After traveling around on a few lengthy trips I noticed the gas mileage actually went up. I think the trailer breaks up the air behind the van and gives it a cleaner air line. Kind of takes away the vacuum that's created behind the square back. Just my opinion. Others mileage may vary
