I have to laugh about that picture too!  biggrin What kind of car is that?  Even with no front seat in the car I still don't see how you got that machine in there!

This was my most difficult move?  Not nearly as good as Glen's but still a puzzler.  It went into the van standing up but I'll be damned if I could get it back out that way!?!?!?  oops Had to lay it on its back to get it out.

I wish I had a picture to share.
Travelling back from my mother's house in Dallas one time in my 97 Chevy Tahoe - my wife and I had our (then) 2-year-old son who was in his carseat in the backseat, so I had the 60 part of the 60/40 split seat down and his car seat on the 40 part. We had luggage, 4-5 cases of Dublin DP, a SelectiVend S-48, Cavalier C-33 and a Cavalier C-27. I am sure there were some other odds and ends stuffed in there too. That thing was jam packed, but everything and everybody made the 16 hour drive safely.
I don't think I could say or do anything to get the wife to do that again though.

I can only imagine the damage done to your Tahoe by all of that heavy cargo being put in then pulled out later.

You gotta hava, gotta needa  truck.
