Just took my first trip towing 20ft Airstream with 2018 LR Td6...tows effortlessly averaging 16 mpg. Got Thule crossbar setup, but tailgate door cannot be opened more than 20% with a canoe or kayak on top. Any suggestions...other than removing canoe or kayak every time I want to open the tailgate?

Put the canoe on sideways.

Sorry couldn't resist.🤣🤣
No sensible suggestions I'm afraid. It's construction doesn't lend itself to easy fix short of having roof bars that stand a foot off the roof.
3litre SE. Monticello Red. Electric deployable tow bar.
