Double Bass Strapping the bass to the roof

Is that an Outback? If so I'm actually surprised that the bass and two kids doesn't kit in there.

Does it fit sideway? Would it work to have only the 30 side down and keep the 70 for the kids? Can't remember which car but I'm pretty sure I was able to put the bass on the 30 side and it was smaller then an Outback. Plus, I got a big bass.

Doesn't work in my Impreza but isn't the Outback a lot bigger than this? Anyway no way I would have done any of the variation pictured!

If I had two older kids, they'd be able to sit in the middle and side, but I have two kids in car seats that cannot be put right next to each other. I tried. If you fold down one seat, the bass will just fit, but the body is too big to it in the back and have then neck over the seats.
