Default trunk fully packed

i believe i filled up the ti with as much as it could handle. you should of seen its take off speed as i was driving, probably 0-60 in 50 seconds haha.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mhhl1UMG4M

had about 10 small boxes on the floor area of the back seat, then on top of those behind the seats i had about 6 long boxes, and in the main trunk area i had 5 big boxes, and one big one on the passenger seat. not to mention i had a guitar, laptop and backpack on passenger seat, and my mail on the driver side floor. my seat was far enough forward that my chest was a couple inches away from the steering wheel

it's good to know i can fit more than i ever expected in this car!

*update: i know it's not "fully packed" but for my first time putting this much in it i became a little overwhelmed

Hatches are damn useful!

Heck, I fit my whole family and luggage comfortably in the ti for a 4 day trip to Ohio...And still got 32 mpg. Some days I actually enjoy the ti

You call that "fully packed"??? No way. There was still a lot of space left for small and/or flexible stuff. E.g., clothes or shoes. heh heh

Hmm, gonna have to dig up the pics of the last time I moved out of the dorm. Looked about the same as yours, but all the small areas were packed with clothes/shoes/small stuff, and I had a 32" TV in the front seat.

That's nowhere near maximum capacity. You could fit at least 6 more dead hookers in there. I hear they're really flexible for the first few hours

Are you really getting the maximum usage out of your vehicle?
