How much stuff can you cram in your hatch?

I was going through some old pics and found these from way back...

A complete swap!
motor/transmission, all brackets, some exhaust, shift linkage, axles, 4 rims/tires, 2 ecu's...some other misc crap

full size black metal futon new in the box:

this made it hard to shift, good thing it was auto then!

then my best pack ever: Trip to Ikea! There stuff comes disassembled, so I squeezed in 3 rocker chairs, a full size couch, few lamps, 4 huge ass pillows, 2 end tables, office supplies, bedding, ceiling & wall lights, 2 metal trash cans, and a slew of other small misc things. Plus a passenger and everything she bought!
These were taken after I got home, without the passenger and all her crap lol.

the tall couch frame cracked the windshield... it rested against the top of the headliner and I pushed too hard trying to get the hatch closed. The front corner of the frame put a crack in the upper right corner of the windshield :(
I drove from Pittsburg PA to Akron OH with all that stuff :lol: never trying that again!

IKEA rules :D
And ehmm... do you see the little word 'VRETEN' on one of the boxes?
In Dutch, it means eating, but in very nasty way, shoving it down your troath haha :woot:
Picture yourself not eating for as long as you can before you die, and at that moment you find yourself all alone in a room full of all your favourite food ;)

It's easier in hatch tho, a coupe has doesn't have al that room, only a little more length.

The civic hatchback is the pickup of the sport compact world. There is a tailgate just like there is for a truck. Usually when i'm hanging out with friends i sit on the tailgate. The civic hood is a perfect fitin the hatch and i have also had a dodge neon body kit in my car. Its an uncomfortable ride but it gets the job done.
