I fit a set of rims and tires in my vert... took them to get mounted. That was fun. (4 rims plus 4 tires).

My lawnmower rode home (in the box) on the back seat. Sears 6.5 hp RWD self-propelled. Not a small mower. Not huge, but not small.

Largest thing I ever hauled was a custom wooden shipping crate for an electronic demo that I built at home, for work. It measured about 2' wide, 2 1/2' tall, and about 5 feet long. Had to stand on end to get it to fit. Had to take the back roads to work, didn't feel comfortable going 60 mph with it back there. LOL.

And then there was the Harbor Freight 20-ton press...

Yeah, I'm glad I have a Suburban now.

Once last year i put three empty beer kegs in the back with the back seat folded down. I had two 1/2 barrels on each side standingup, and a 1/4 barrel between them that almost touched the back of the center consol. Naturally i buckled them in for the ride to the beer store. I got so many thumbs up, and laughs from ppl it was great. Once i got to the beer store and unloaded the deposits, i put a full 1/2 barrel of Mil Best Light in there and drove it home. (I live in an off campus college house, we drink a stupid amount of cheap beer) Def a highlight of my college career...

Most I've done was 4 tires in the back (in bags), 19" tv upfront, dvd player, vcr, computer (big case, went on the passenger floor), flat panel monitor, and my surround sound. Got to my buddies house, and he couldn't believe I actually did it. Also, there was a time I needed to get a 4'x8' piece of wood from Home Depot to my house. Only had my car. Cut it down to two 4'x4's, put the top down, and tossed them in the back. Can't remember what all we put ontop of them to hold them in place, but my buddy did his best to help. Seemed to create quite a bit of downforce at 45mph. Needless to say, the little Volvo behind me really kept his distance. Also, the TSP true duals and Hooker LTs can fit in the backseat together, but I don't suggest doing this. The boxes will push on your seat quite a bit.
