Comment on There was no need to ever improve upon THIS
Weirdfish@lemmy.world 3 days agoNo, not in the sense you mean, it’s a 5 door hatch back. The gold standard was always “Can it fit a sheet of plywood?”, and no not a chance.
With the roof rack it can carry whatever ,including the giant tree that fell on it five years ago that makes me not care if I carry anything on it.
If you have the money, buy the all wheel drive Volvo wagon, it’s what I’m looking at next.

I don’t expect anything but a van to be able to carry a full sheet of plywood, but I can do 3x7 inside my car now, and bought a trailer for full sheets
it’s the 8 footers and general length and height of rear hatch that concerns me. even my outback is pretty low, a regular hatchback loses another few inches and that’s too restrictive on the hatch dimensions
I have accepted that I may need to just up my budget and buy a Volvo instead of a beater-adjacent vehicle
