We finally had a nice day, so top-down driving was in order, but I also needed to load up all of my hockey gear. Top down + the entire contents of a hockey bag? No problem at all.

Judging by the smell of my own hockey bag, I am guessing that trunk is not going to smell too good afterwards!



(better hope the smell doesn't impregnate itself into the top! Or when you have to have the roof up.......

I throw my bag in the passenger seat, and leave enough room in the trunk for beer for me, and maybe some for the guys...

GO DUCKS! Sweep complete of the Avs, who is next? No matter - Sharks, Oilers, all the same result.

GO DUCKIES!

As far as I know, the smell is gone. Or at least tolerable. I haven't heard any complaints from other people......yet.

Not in the trunk. Putting a stick inside the car with the top up is just about as difficult as putting all the gear in the trunk with the top down. A passenger would have been cozy with the stick.

Stick is easy. Just put it into the passenger side footwell, with the shaft coming up to the rear bulkhead. I have carried sticks in my Fiero this way many times. Passenger still fits ok too, since the stick can basically sits between the seat and center tunnel.
