- It makes no difference, because the roof rack does not affect fuel consumption.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes, because I save fuel without the roof rack.
A roof rack increases air resistance even when empty, which increases fuel consumption. Removing it when it is not in use helps save fuel.
