Bringing it back: What have you hauled in your bug?

Couldn't find an active thread. So I'll start a new one.

Tell me this doesn't get some looks going down the road:

thats awsome, i want a bird to ride in my car with me.

I have hauled an 80 inch door in my bug

[Smileybug]

Those are some great pics of her!

I've never had anything huge in my car. Though there were 5 people in it at one time...me and 4 college guys because my fiance's car was broke down Freshman year and I was the only one with a car!

The last 2 years of college, it was basically the only vehicle I used to get all of my stuff to and from the dorms too. NBs are great haulers considering how small they are!

so THAT'S what that handle is for... hmm... my bug doesn't have a bird, though... were they an option on the original car?

[RedRock]

OH MY WORD!!! How cool is that though! I bet you do get some ineresting looks. Makes me jealous...

On another note, I haven't had my bug long enough to haul anything interesting.

Wish I had some pictures..

When my kids were smaller and they could all fit in the back seat.. 2 boys with their little sister in a car seat between 'em... we drove from just north of Philly to meet my parents in Lake George NY, to stay in their motor home for a few nights. Of course, the back was packed full with clothes and toys for 2 adults and 3 kids...well, toys for the kids, anyway..

My wife went shopping one day. Had to give one of the kids to my parents to take home for us because there was nowhere left to put everything she bought.

This is not the only vehicle with a built in perch. My Ex's old (I originally put 'our'..*sigh*) Liberty diesel had one as well....

Because 98s rock like that! Actually Talula was born in 99, so she's a year younger than Ms Peaches.

[The Cheat]

a plucker!

greys are notorious for that, some say it's due to the intelligence level.

a toe hitch for my sisters rogue

[Judee]

2x 26" bikes
Set of Golf Clubs
Golf Push Cart
Roller Suitcase
Backpack
Various Christmas Gifts

The moving tarps are so the bikes don't scratch eachother and the interior.

A moose-sized Chocolate Lab named Ranger.
At least he's cute :3

OH, and one time for this anime convention, my Beetle was packed TO THE ROOF with stuff. My sister had her seat and no other room, and the rear of my car was sagging. I wish I took pictures T_T

I'll raise your 'four wheels' to 'four wheels, four tires, california carduster, jumper cables, map, cd changer, stuffed cat and a weeks worth of groceries.'.

I've crashed in the backseat once after this wild party for graduation,a 6'2",250 dude,in this little leather seat

I woke up with a shaved leg and explicit permanent marker images all over...And a curly mustache .

-boy what a morning that was,they had no idea where I went,they never expected me to sleep in the backseat of a bug!

There was that,and the occasional 5 or 6 bags of groceries.

I've got 1.5" on you but we're roughly the same weight and I've spent in the back of mine at shows before... kinda made a habit of it for a while. Will probably do it again at ToD...

Aww! I had an African Grey named Marnie... I miss her so much, and my cat does too... they were buddies! Surprising only because the bird taunted and teased the cat relentlessly!

[VW Lady Bug]

I've hauled a 12' X 12' canopy, rolling cooler, MkII Jetta bumpers (front and rear) along with my clothes for the weekend, my school bag (a rolling backpack w/laptop), purse, groceries for the weekend, and my typical show stuff... 1 large prep box - bottle jack - 2 totes with trophies and plaques - 4 boxes of mirrors - custom wheel stand - show ready floor mats - 4 camping chairs - a few blankets - a duffel bag full of towels (rain was predicted) - and then some...

[Wingnut_rb]

I'd say if you haven't had at least 3 parts of your car in the trunk, you haven't modded enough yet!! I have a ways to go.....I've had 4 wheels and a spoiler....and Starkiss (our other child)

[AlienBug2000]

Once hauled ass across seven states for a funderal. 1,100 milesby myself. Thank god for books on CD.

[mybugrocks]

I hauled a water dispenser that the guy at the store didn't think would fit, was no problem at all
