With the cargo cover off, I feel very confident that a stroller will fit easily. Along with the diaper bag. That is unless you have one of those menacing triple baby stollers.

1st off why are you calling it a boot, your in canada, in toronto, its a trunk!

I have a sedan and my kids stroller fits just fine, I doubt you could get one in the hatch with the seats up

My stroller doe's not fit in my hatch. It's one of those big ones that the whole car seat locks into. The jogging stroller fits on the roof rack in place of my Mt. bike.

i guess it'll have to go into the back seat then? beside the car seat. so my entire back seat is taken up by the baby. wow

I've got 5dr Hatchback with the bench seats. Anyways, I've tried a bunch of different strollers. Most the Peg-Perego fits (except the ones with the umbrella handle), the Valco fits, but I ended up buying a Mountain Buggy (which also fits).

With the Mountain Buggy, I needed to take off one of the rear wheel to make it fit, which is easy, since it's a quick release. Another good thing about Mountain Buggy, is that it folds very flat and once it's on it's side in the rear, there's still usable room left over.

Note: All the above babe strollers needed the the trunk cover to come-off in order to fit, except for the Peg-Perego Pliko.

(I didn't try the Bugaboo cause I'm sick of seeing some many of them and paying over $1000 for something made in Taiwan seems extreme).

The people who got there strollers to fit are they the standard full bench seat or the 60/40 sliding/reclining seat. The reason I ask is because I have the 60/40 seat and use the sliding feature quite often to transport stuff in the trunk.

momstobeandmore.com located on bayview. Mountain Buggy is good for 0-6 month. However, it gets expensive with the accessories which are normally included in other strollers.

I passed on the bulky Graco strollers, but I did get their infant car seat.
