    My girlfriend was getting pizzed with me for using the Saturn, so I added a new wood hauler to the fleet yesterday. :D

    Nice clean interior, so no worries about my saws getting scratched up... :yes:

    My girlfriend's car is in need of about $700 in repairs that we've been putting off - now we can drive it to the junkyard instead. I was planning to get a truck, and let her have the Saturn, but I found a smoking deal on another clean low miles little grandma car and I couldn't pass it up. At least this way we'll have 2 cars so I won't have to drive the truck daily when I do get it. The right one hasn't come along yet anyway - I'm hoping to find a clean low miles little grandpa version. My favorite feature on those kinds of vehicles is no car payment. :)

    Looks like you were taking it easy on the Saturn. Probably could have fit a few more rounds in there. If you are going to haul rounds in the car you might as well fill it to the head liner. It gets just as messed up with one round as it does with a full load.

    Good luck with the new old wood hauler, doesn't look like it has a scratch or dent on it.

    No room in my car for wood (too much fire starter).

    I will take a pic of that either car or minivan I can't remember what it was now but other than the driver seat it was leveled off with junk. Mail, fast food wrapper, bottles cups all kinds of junk!

    Pull the seats out and you can load a whole lot more.

    I have no idea. For the sake of my health, I did not get too close.

    There is a member of Another Site who used to drive a Honda CRX to GTG's with no passenger or rear seat so he could get more saws in.

    I used to own a CRX. They just don't have a back seat.
