    Would someone be so kind as to measure the height from the rear deck to the roof for me?

    I would like to haul a small 50cc to 70 cc quad in the hatch area and think it may fit in the v. I could use this for my land management duties without having to buy a truck. :)

    Mine measures 28 1/2" across the straight part, then tapers at the corners. Hope that helps.

    I got rid of the truck and SUV because the V has a large enough opening for me. inside dim 31" top tapers to 42" bottom then 28.5"-29" for roof to floor, been able to haul dishwasher, stove, dryer, or many rescue dog crates.

    Interesting question because I brought a new dryer home in my pickup with shell yesterday. Box was 29 x 31 x 44" so it would have been a little big. Guess that's one slight advantage the cute ute Rav / CR-Vs have is they are a little taller. If they can bring the load floor down a couple inches in next rev, that might be good, or not.

    I measured my Genii and it was 25.5" at the middle. This would be the tallest the quad could be and still fit. Removing the tires would allow a 30" quad to fit. Unfortunately I couldn't find any that were smaller and still useful. The ones I found would fit in a v, however. :)
