Can't see driving around with it on more than occasionally. (It's not hard to put on.)
On my car - I just leave the rack on all season as I do weekly MTB rides on Tuesdays and Thursdays. We have another set of load bars that fit the minivan but they only take a few minutes to put on if we decided to. The fairing does help keep the wind noise down and mileage is a little better too.
