where do you put your snowboards on the 06?
i've got a 163 cm snowboard. I know the civic 06' backseat doesnt fold down. where do i put my snowboards now? this is one of the things i'm considering in deciding if i should get a civic or prius. ....but i really like the looks of the civic though...

Yeah, I was wondering about this too. I am worried about the drag that the roof rails would cause and effect the mpg. Does anyone have a good looking set they would recommend?

I don't mean to sound like a butt head but how often would you travel with the board. Couldn't you just put the rails and board on when you need them? Hey we have to use air to go ride so I am just making a suggestion is all.kevin

so is there a removable rack and rails for snowboards? from what i've searched around online, everything is pretty much permanent when you attached it to the roof of the car. if you guys have any recommendation, i'd really appreciate it.

Wal Mart has these new suction cup dealy things. They are VERY powerful, you just flip the switch and they are locked to your vehicle. I thought about picking up a set, relatively cheap $25 for a set of 4.
