Here we go again. I know perfectly well what we're talking about and where. From the KS AG's FAQ here:
http://ag.ks.gov/docs/documents/concealed-carry-faqs.pdf
Notice that both of these explicitly say that you must be a licensee to openly carry a firearm in a car, and to carry it armed or outside of a container that completely encases it.
It may be OK to do this in certain counties or cities, I didn't bother to investigate further since I do have a CCW endorsement.
My earlier advice still applies, stop getting your legal advice from cereal boxes.

· Can I, as a Licensee, remove my loaded handgun from its concealed position if I
am traveling in my vehicle and not be subject to criminal violations?
o Answer: Yes. Again, the changes to the transportation law allow a Licensee
to remove the handgun from a concealed position while they are traveling
in their vehicle even if the Licensee is in a jurisdiction where “open carry” has
been prohibited.
How can I legally transport a firearm in my vehicle anywhere in Kansas?
o Answer: K.S.A. 12-16,124(d) provides that “no person shall be prosecuted
under any ordinance, resolution or regulation for transporting a firearm in any
air, land or water vehicle if the firearm is unloaded and encased in a container
which completely encloses the firearm.” Again, concealed carry licensees are
not subject to local ordinances or resolutions regarding the manner of
transporting a loaded firearm.

I am afraid KCGUNFAN has it wrong. We are talking "open carry" and this isn't Missouri we're talking about, it's Kansas. You DO NOT require a CCW permit to "open carrying your vehicle or in public. Justin, do not listen to KCGUNFAN. He has no idea what he is talking about.
