Back seat pizza …

[mspmms]

Here’s little tiny thing we’d change about our XLT if we could —

Our other car is a Subaru Forester with split fold-down rear seats which have a protective rubber liner on the back of the seats. We can fold one back seat down and have a nice “shelf” to put a takeout pizza box on for the ride home.

So yes, this is our “problem” with the Maverick: No good place to put a pizza box. (Yes, I know … major problem …)

First, the back seat doesn’t fold flat. Wish it did. That would be useful for hauling a lot of stuff not appropriate to put in the bed or under the back seat.

Second, the back of the seat is some kind of papery fabric stuff — Nothing you’d want to put a hot pizza box on anyway, even if it did lie flat.

So only alternative is putting the pizza box right on the seat. Not a fan of that, even with a seat cover, as potential for greasiness. Plus it doesn’t sit flat, so pizza comes home with toppings slid to one side.

(How fussy are WE????)

Thinking of something like a bean- bag bottom lap desk they sell for using a laptop computer on your actual lap. Although don’t know of anything like that big enough for a large pizza box.

Maybe we need a purpose-built box of some sort. Something with rails to keep the box from sliding off, with something like a bean- bag base to level it out when set on the seats.

Don’t think a large pizza box would fit underneath the back seat, even if left open. But haven’t checked. Maybe a FITS pizza box holder of some kind …

A solution from a while back at Maverick Meme thread <= link

I hear breakfast pizza is huge in Iowa.... Maybe there's something similar in PA?

There's a convenience store chain in the Midwest called Casey's that has killer breakfast pizza! The bacon, egg and cheese is to die for!!!!

Sadly, no Casey's here, but maybe some breakfast tacos whipped up here in the kitchen...

Toss it in the bed of the truck with some tie downs.

I'm not a fan of cheap takeout, so I solved this problem years ago by making my own pizzas with store bought dough. As long as I put frozen dough in the fridge the night before, I can whip up a pizza faster than you can get one from takeout or delivered. Better too.

Well now I'm curious how many 18" pizzas in their boxes fit in the bed of a Maverick...anyone got a pen and napkin? Shit, do I have to calculate with/out a bed extender, Amazon or Ford version??? That's like three to six pizza boxes worth of volume there.

I head out to the Midwest to hunt deer each fall, and I always look forward to Casey's pizza during my trips. Both the breakfast pizza and regular variety are good. You wouldn't think gas station pizza is a "destination" eating appointment, but Casey's pizza actually has a pretty big cult following among traveling outdoorsmen!

Plus, don’t forget you can stack ‘em …

2 across, 3 deep, that's 6 per level (maybe 9 once you get up past the wheel arches). How high are we stacking them? How thick are the pies/ boxes?

if you haven’t tried a big insulated zip up thermal Bag for your pizza you are missing out. I got one as a gift in my alumni Auburn University colors with the logo. It’s awesome. And keeps any grease contained in the bag and pizza hot. Otherwise I totally agree with you on the missing design features of the back seat.

If you're getting pizza that frequently that it's now a gripe with your Maverick, go to Amazon or wherever and spend fifteen bucks on an insulated pizza delivery bag. That solves your spillage issues and will keep your pizza warm. Then just use something whether it's a bean bag or whatever to prop the pizza bag up and keep it level.

Nailed it. Also, just put the pizza in the bed, especially if it’s in one of those hot bags. No smells and the toppings shouldn’t slide off to one side.
