    i was wrong. my prius doesn't hold two Mill's Pride C1 cabinets.

    it holds three. along with two shelf packs (A50, i think they were..) and there's lots of room for more stuff.

    drop the back seats, remove the passenger seat's headrest (for visibility) and move the passenger seat all the way forward and set the seatback to a fairly vertical position.

    three 125-pound cabinet boxes and the hatch closed with several inches to spare! can't do THAT in the Civic Hybrid... NYAAAA, NYAAAA........

    and when i almost got caught by a changing traffic light near the Home Depot, i nailed the gas and the car scooted through the intersection surprisingly quickly!

    lovin' this car more and more each day...

    My old Honda Civic station wagon had more room, but they don't make it any more. I'd have replaced it (to get air bags) a couple of years ago but didn't want a regular sedan. I probably would have bought a HCH, because the Civic gave me so many trouble-free years, but I didn't want to give up the station wagon.

    The fact that the '04 Prius is a liftback was an important factor in my decision to buy it and let the Civic go. The conventional sedan body style just does not make any sense at all, unless you're a hired killer and you need a place to put bodies.

    And even then, you have the tonneau cover in the Prius to cover any unsightly decaying bodies!

    That reminds me... "buy rubberized coating material for back of Prius. Also, several cans of Lysol."

    Do those little scented trees you hang from the rear view mirrors take car of, ummm, "extreme body odor"?
