What can you fit in your Yaris LB that I can't fit in my Yaris Sedan?

well...
2 bicycles actually
a kayak
a 70lb bale of hay

those are all things that fit in MY liftback that I doubt would ever fit in your sedan. In fact, just about anything that is more than 15" tall will fit in mine, but not your trunk.

That's my point!

I fit a 4.5 cubic ft. refrigerator (still in the box) in my Lb with plenty of room left. Just wish mine came with the 60/40 rear seat so it would lay down perfectly flat, instead of having that big hump with the bench seat down.

Too sleepy. I thought you wrote that you fit most of your mom in the back. I was picturing her hanging out the the back with the hatch open.

Keep in mind that the sedan is a different car, lower and wider than the LB.

We found the 2 to be quite different in many aspects. For sheer cargo space with the seats folded down, there is no comparison.

Not bad. Maybe 1.5" - 2.0". Looked like it had lowering springs. I did spread the weight out so as not to sag in the rear too much. Tried to push them more into the center of the car behind the front seat. I think I could easily have put a couple of more, but read somewhere the weight limit is 800 pounds and I weigh about 110 so didn't want to push it. I meant to take some photos before I unloaded, but forgot. Of course since then I have changed from stock to the NF210's. Not sure I'll be able to do that now since I am lowered a bit.

But I have hauled lots of stuff. Couple of window ac units that would never have fit in a sedan. Dog crates all the time and dogs. Which is why I had to have the LB. There is really a lot of room in there.

yeah, that kind of weight is no problem. i deliver newspapers as a second job and i have a relatively small route compared to the other drivers, but i'll have between 200-250 papers in my car every night of the week. not a big deal normally, but the next time you get your sunday paper with all the ads and such feel the weight of it. i'll bet i have between 500-750 pounds in it every saturday night(not including myself ~225)! i actually prefer to use my wife's yaris sedan for the sunday editions because i have a 'system' that utilizes those rubbermaid storage tubs that i move around as needed. i just installed a yakima roof rack and cargo box to help distribute the weight more 'centrally' instead of mostly in the rear of the vehicle(although i too like the 'dropped' looked, but i'll have to wait for lowering springs until the delivering days are over). i also purchased new tires for it with a higher load rating than the stock ones. i use my yaris liftback for the 'dailies' because it's easier to manuever between parked cars and i can fit everything in the front and back seats.
