I've hauled two 50lb bags of peat, 5 bags of manure and 5 bags of topsoil in my yaris. filled the entire back and weighed the car down something fierce. THe car handled it just fine, though. And with the lovely flip-over plastic in the back and a well-placed towel, not a spec of dirt or anything was left behind. I adore my Yaris.

As much as I relish the idea of driving an iQ, my frequent trips to Home Depot for various project supplies probably dictates I stay w/ a big ol' Yaris.

Seemed weird typing that.

Has anyone managed to fit a 30-inch range in the back of the Yaris LB?

I need to pick up a 30-inch range on Friday and I would love to get it into the back of my LB.

But I think the dimensions of the range are just a little too large, unless I leave part of it hanging out the back.

The main problem is the vertical dimension in the back is just a little too small to handle the 30-inch width of the range.

Anyone else had to deal with this?

Did you measure? Also consider that the packaging will add to the width/height/depth of the actual range too.

I once fit a Craftsman 5 drawer mechanics rollaway chest and 7 drawer top chest in the back. Both in boxes. The guy at the store was in serious doubt if it would fit.

Yes, I measured all the dimensions of the range and also the dimensions of the back of my LB with the rear seats folded down flat. I think I could get it in there with the tallest part of the range poking out the back of the car about 9 or 10 inches, but then the hatch would be wide open and I don't think it would be safe to drive, even if I could tie down the hatch.

I guess I was hoping that there would be a way to gain another half inch to inch clearance in the vertical dimension in the back, perhaps by removing something. Obviously I could remove both rear seats entirely, but is there anything less drastic that would buy me about an inch?

I brought home a packaged book case from Ikea last week - removed the front passenger and right rear headrests, put the front passenger seat full forward and maximum recline, laid the rear seat right forward. The book case, a full-height "Billy" unit, fit from tight against the glove box lid to within a couple of inches of the hatch window, but it went in with the hatch shut.

Not quite as impressive a cargo carrier as my old '76 VW Rabbit, but pretty good considering that it's a much smaller car.

Oh my gosh .. I so have to add to this thread lol

So, I recently moved from MN to TN, and my final load I took EVERYTHING I had left and whatever I couldn't fit, I was throwing away. Well ... this is what my car looked like:







I had a couple more bags crammed in there ... but there was a desk, office chair, rubbermaid tubs, shyoe boxed, suitcases, a cooler, my computers ... I seriously ... can't believe that it all fit lol

A pair of retractable wheel skis for an airplane just barely fit, I was prepared to yank the front seat as it was already slid up as far as it could go. The rear seat is always removed.

Just as I was typing this, I realized all I had to do was recline the pass seatback to get more usefull length, next time.

The dog is looking pissed, because since I couldn't find a 4 door HB with a stick, used, I settled for the 2 door. I like it just fine, but he HATES that the rear windows don't roll down.

Hey Idahotom,

Do you have any idea how much addition VERTICAL clearance you get by removing the rear seats? I just need an inch or two more.

Cool!

Just please, everyone, don't get into an accident with such a load. You'd be in for a whole world of hurt.
