The Mustang is great for a grocery store trip, but c'mon man... They make trucks and big honkin' SUVs for a reason. It isn't so much the depth of an object, it's the height. And then when you can't fit a tall object in the truck or SUV, you get a trailer. There's no way I consider a Mustang the Swiss army knife of vehicles. If you want something fast, it'll most likely be a sports coupe. At this point, buy an old truck or SUV(unless you're Zelek and can afford 2 brand new cars at the same time :rockon: lol) and have it as a back up vehicle to carry whatever your heart desires.
Huh, I thought they made SUVs to make small people feel big. Who knew they had a real purpose.

Honda Element...ugh, I'm sorry but what a toilet lol.
Our Element SC has been a very good vehicle, mainly just oil changes. 200k miles and going strong. Not sure what experiences you've had...

I don't the issue is with the mechanical reliability of the car. You're on a Mustang forum, a car with style and personality. The Element has about as much swag as my equally reliable Swingline stapler. Many people have no problem owning and driving a simple and practical vehicle. Other people wouldn't be caught dead driving the automotive equivalent of a good stapler.

I brought an IKEA 7' bookshelf home. Still in the box, but the box was over 7' long./QUOTE]

I could've told you that it would work. I'm taking a Ford F350 front bumper assembly (including mounting & tow brackets + rubber air dam) out to youngest #1 son in L.A. I did a very careful test fitting before committing to the job tho. :whew:

A couple years ago I drove our foursome to a golf course 45 minutes away. 4 bags in the trunk and 4 adults in the cabin. I'm pretty sure the clubs were more comfortable than the 2 guys in the back seat, though.

That's just damned impressive. I haven't folded down the seatback yet because I haven't had a need.
