As another poster said, looking 'innocent' at the initial contact with border guards, helps the most. They can't search every vehicle, so they rely on 'first impressions'. Make a good one and they'll wave you through.

For years I 'carried' back and forth in a big truck even when the general consensus was that every trucker was a dope-crazed outlaw.

Dope-sniffing dogs were the worst threat but even then, there were places on the outside of the vehicle that were out of their sniff range. Keeping the inside of the vehicle clean AND smelling good was important in case there was something in your appearance or demeanor that tweeked their interest.
