Okay - my next vehicle will be an SUV... I'm really trying to avoid a minivan. Here are the problems I'm running into:
1. I need to fit two large crates in the back. I have found narrower crates specifically made for vehicles, but the rear cargo area needs to be at least 38" deep, 44" wide, and 28" high for two of these crates to fit in the back.
2. I do NOT want a huge SUV, a la Tahoe, Suburban, Expedition sized. The largest I want to go is a Honda Pilot or Toyota Highlander.
3. I'd prefer a hybrid, if possible.
4. I'd prefer to keep the 2nd row of seats, if possible.
5. I don't want to spend $40k on a dog car.
If I need to get a ninnyvan, I'll get a ninnyvan. I just really don't want to have to get one.
Any suggestions? Does anyone have a Honda Pilot or Toyota Highlander that they could get the dimensions of the cargo area? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
