Very nice. Honestly though, only counts as truck stuff when you get bulk mulch/soil, not the bagged stuff. That is hatchback/SUV stuff. ;)
Haha I have done bagged mulch in hatchbacks (and trunks!) before. The dirt and bug infestation is not worth it! :ROFLMAO:

I have had that many bags of mulch in the back of my wife's Honda Fit, but I didn't dare take a picture because that would be rather incriminating. :D

I mean... I've done it in a Prius V and a Crosstrek, but I'd sure prefer to do it in something with a bed.

Which... actually...is a true statement for many, many definitions of "done it"...

I can do that in my Camry

From AI

There were over 360 million SUVs on the road globally as of 2023, a number that continues to grow annually, making them a dominant vehicle type. :facepalm:

Begs the question, why in hell would the Rooster Man want to drive what 360 Million people are driving when I can have a Maverick.. :crackup: (y)

My 84 diesel rabbit had 2.5 x tougher springs in back and I would regularly haul 17 bags of concrete at 80 pounds per bag. Rear seat removed and 2 bags in front seat

How many you got there? In my photo I had 12, but I'm sure you could get 20+.
I had 20 in mine and was able to close the cover over them. Last year I did 40 in a load but that blocked the rear window completely. Lowe's is 2 miles away, HD 1.5 miles away so 2 trips worked for me plus I could drop them in the 2 areas I needed ans not need to count how many I dropped in each 🤣 . Plus I got to drive my Maverick twice as much. I checked the local bulk mulch retailer. They sell minimum 3 yards at a time and 1 loading of that mulch. Cost? $135 and I dare someone to post a picture of 3 yards of mulch in a Maverick.

True! Mine was full of sod a couple weeks ago. The bed needed a thorough cleaning before I could transport golf bags again. :)
