Loaded P5

[Jack Daniels]

Just got back from Betty's Azalea Ranch and Home Depot. The P5 gobbled up ten 40lb bags of pelletized limestone, two 35lb bags of lawn fertilizer, one 20lb bag of sunflower seed, four mums, one 70lb child, one 160lb adult and one 135lb adult. Had to fold down the 2/3 back seat and I put down some plastic for interior protection (don't want to mess up the interior). It drove just fine on the 10 mile drive home.

Yeah, I'm very impressed of how much cargo you can load with the rear seats down. Remember the pic with the washing macnine in the back of the P5

Yup. It handled just fine too. The suspension was low, but not bottomed out by a good margin. (thumb)

aren't the rear seats removable so that the seatbacks can fold down flatter? i remember reading about that in the owner's manual.... hmmmm...

I have a pic floating around somewhere of my P5 with a full size mountian bike laying in the back. With the wheels on and everything.

 

[Midnight22]

yes they r removable, if u look at the seats u'll see a lil thing stickin out, pull that up and ur seat will pop up, then slide it out and ur seat now foldsflatter

I had a barber shop chair-the big ones with the hydraulics and all, and both my child seats in mine with the seat folded down. And still had room. I was surprised.

whao midnight... my back gets sore just looking at that picture. im glad our car has the style of a sports car, but can still do the job of a station wagon - chris

 

[Midnight22]

lol, yeah, it was ALOT of stuff, haha, my entire car was filled, including passenger seat, i couldnt see out of my rear view and i had to wiggle around to see my side view... the entire trip, 40 min, i had one hand up holding stuff from sliding out in front and obstructing my view...

edit: P5 mans 4th best invention, with 1 being toothpicks, 2 being running water and 3 being toliet paper

I believe the largest thing I have had in the back was the hood of the car. Unbelieveably it fits, just have very little room left for eth driver.
