ABSTRACT:
A vehicle carrier is formed from a flexible mat with suction cups along its bottom surface and raised ridges along the sides of its upper surface. A plurality of slots are provided in these raised ridges. Rigid retaining bars located along the raised ridges are connected to tie straps which pass through the slots and surround the retaining bars. These tie straps then extend back through the slot and connect to the vehicle. Additional tie straps connect to the rigid retaining bar and are secured about a load carried on the mat. Because of the flexible material the mat is made of, it can be rolled into a cylindrical shape and stored in the vehicle trunk along with the retaining bars and tie straps.
