we bought it sight unseen.  very bad thing to do , i know - but they are very in demand in europe because of their good gas mileage.  unfornatuely, i hope the head room is good.  we haven't measured that yet - but were told by the salesman that it would be adequate. 

the trouble is, everyone is buying them up now - and it won't be in until late august until we see it.

You bought it unseen, is that wise??

How does the salesman know there is enough headroom, did he used to be an undertaker??

Is there enough room for your husbands fishing gear and your favourite red dress?

Be careful with chipmunks crawling in the engine.

well, from the looks of it - we can all squeeze in somehow.  i've learned u have to put the feet in first - or u'll end up like tom hanks or whatever in that movie where he's only able to put in his feet or his head - but not both.  we are both tall.  i'm 5'8'' and he's 5'9''.  i could do the driving if he needs to lay the back seats flat and roll around like cargo.   we've done it before.  that was a bicycling trip though and it was coming back - because he had some kind of stomach cramps.  that was a funny scene but not to him.  everytime i went around a curve - he'd say 'take it easy' and end up rolled up on the other side.
