Driving with Hatch Open by twistedmuffin

I noticed there isn't any (obvious) place to tie down the hatch if you want to drive with it partially open, as when transporting something long. Anyone find a way to secure the hatch partway down ? What about driving with the hatch open and unsecured and letting the wind buffet it? Anyone try that yet ???

Alarm Goes Off for the Fun of it by twistedmuffin

The alarm on my 09 Versa 1.8 S Hatch goes off ( beep, beep, beep) every once in a while, for no apparent reason. It stops by itself before I can get out to the driveway to stop it. Nobody around it, no animals, no wind, etc. Anyone else have this?
 
Thanks

I've only run into one time when I couldn't close the hatch on something I was transporting. (amazing what I've been able to get inside with the hatch closed)
What I did to tie down the hatch was to anchor the rope where the hatch latches down and then run the ropes around to the outside of the hatch and tie the hatch down. I used some rags/old towels to protect the edges of the hatch doors so the rope couldn't rub the paint, but it worked fine. We were moving several 6 foot long tables and had to transport them about 45 miles, most of it at highway speeds and everything worked out just fine.

pf_flyer,
 
  Thanks. I checked it out, and yes, it looks workable. Don't know why I didn't see it before !! Thanks.

Not sure what this message was in reply to, but I don't go a day without using cruise. It helps control your speed consistently so you don't speed, helps many leadfooters use less gas, and provides comfort over multiple hour trips on the highway. I have seen people drive for 8 hours on the interstate and never use cruise. All the while, they vary in speed from 55 to 80, pass and get passed constantly by people driving with consistent speed, and complain about lack of comfort on long highway trips. I would never buy another car to be used at all on the highway without cruise. We all have different preferences.
 
I for one have never understood the obssession with the sunroof/moonroof. I have had multiple and would rather not have one in any vehicle I ever own. It usually takes up headroom, raises the temperature, adds weight, costs money, but for some reason is loved by many. For some, acceleration, fuel economy, reliability, safety, and cost are nonfactors as long as it has a sunroof.
 
Other people don't care if there is a stereo or air conditioning in their car. Different strokes!
