Junk in the Trunk - Page 11 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Someone has shown to put a mountain bike in, without more details. I am 6'2"~6'3". I wonder if anyone has tried to slide a 21" 29er mountain bike in with front wheel removed only, peddles on, and saddle lowered. Need to carry it inside during summer.
Not sure if the dealer will allow me to try that. My bike is dirty and it may scratch paint or interior.

I just moved into my house yesterday. After my friends filled their pickup trucks and the trailer I was left with a 32" TV, a 29gal tank (for my awesome leopard geckos), and 3 medium sized cardboard boxes. I also fit a crock pot in there, and an entire closet full of clothes.

All fit in the FR-S! So I gloated about it to my wife:

"SEE. ITS PRACTICAL AS FUCK."

i haven't tried a 29er, but my 26" hard tail fits fine with the rear wheel on, at worst you might have to take off the back wheel also i'd guess

Went to a local dealer and tried. No luck for 21" 29er. Sadly that could be a deal breaker to me.

Had to buckle it in because the alarm kept going off.

It's because its not weight sensitive it's electrical. Several threads like this one from a year ago when the cars were first coming out. More than likely you are charging your phone and the current causes it to go off. Also happens if you put something damp in the seat (like a container that sweats).

I know, for example, if I lean my phone on the seat bolster so that the charge port is off the seat, it stops. Also, if I put my phone on the seat without charging it, it does not set it off.

It seems to be a little model specific as to when it does it but basically the explanation still stands.

My wife and I have delivered some of her artwork in our FR-S. 36 x 48 just slides in to the trunk with the seats folded down. Actually could be a little longer....

I've been able to fit a full bag of hockey equipment and 2 hockey sticks with plenty of room to spare. Could probably fit another bag and set of sticks if I wanted to.

Currently, I keep my penny board, my high school diploma, graduation cap and gown, and yearbook in my trunk. I just graduated and been too lazy to clean it out.

Fit in two double rifle bags, pistol bag, ammo can, and 5 foot tall steel target today. Didn't even have to take out the 10" JL sub.
