Subject: RE: What's your T.A.V (Triathlon Assault Vehicle)?blindman10 - 2011-05-20 6:44 AM I recently bought a 2007 Pontiac Vibe (basically a Toyota Matrix dressed as a Pontiac) 

The rear seats fold down and there is a surprisingly large amount of room. I bought some rubber-backed carpet as well as a 2x4 and a rattle can of black and this is what I was able to whip up. The 2x4 secures to a track in the rear of the seats so its completely removable. Otherwise the seats fold upright just fine with the carpet and 2x4 in place. As you can see, I have to remove the seat/seat post and front wheel, but its a lot better having it secured INSIDE the car than exposed on the roof or something (imo). I can't complain, plenty of room for the rest of my gear and 30+ mph  Can you show us (me) more pics of that 2x4 set-up. That's pretty sweet. (Pardon the partial thread hijack). |
