Default Just How Much Room in that Trunk

I am looking buying an TT coupe. Aside from the clearance concern my other concern is the trunk space.

I hear that it is possible to fit a road or mountain bike in the car if I take my front wheel off---is this true?? Won't the bike ripe the leather??

How about a large dog---I mean Bernese Mountain Dog or Golden Retriever

Default I fit skis in a big ski bag, big suitcase, backpack, ski boots, poles without a problem.

I have also put my bike in the back with the seats folded down. The back of the seats are not leather, so when they are folded down the leather is not really exposed.

You can fit all of this and close the trunk?!!!

Default Yes...I do have the back seats folded down with all this stuff in there.

Ski bag comes up between the front seats though, but it's not in my way of shifting or anything.

Default I may start putting my MTN bike in mine...

First of all, there's plenty of room w/ the seats folded. I would strongly suggest that you put some cardboard down (folded packing crate) to protect against tears and stains from the lubricants and/or dirt.

Dogs (any size) = drool = not permitted in a TT. This doesn't apply to Bill or others w/ Wet Okole seat covers.

That's why I bought a Coupe as opposed to a Roadster. It's in the trunk baby.

Default BTW, will I damage the bike by transporting it in the car (derallieur up)?

I have decided not to put a rack on but I want to take advantage of some nice areas w/in a 45 minute drive.
