What'cha Haulin'?

OK folks...one of the main reasons for getting my HHR is the fact that I am a musician and I needed a vehicle with room for my gear. I do not like SUVs all too much and had a hard time parting with my Mustang.Since I like the sporty look but needed the room for stuff...the HHR is the only choice for me.
So...what kind of stuff do most of ya find that ya haul around,on average?

Here's my list

1 10 string Chapman Stick
1 4 string Ibanez BTB bass
1 5 string Ibanez CTBN bass
1 4 string Ovation acoustic bass
1 4x10 bass cabinet
1 18" Bag End cabinet
10 Native American Flutes in a travel flute case
1 Behringer FCB 1010 foot controller
1 pedal board (A/B switch,volume pedal,on/off switch,ohm converter box)
3 guitar stands
1 stick stand
2 flute stands
1 gig bag
1 6 space road rack that houses...
1 Behringer Bass V-Amp Pro
1 QSC Power Amp


All of this (and more) will fit with my back seats folded flat.
Try that in a Mustang!

Didn't know they were standard issue back then.

Another musician with the right idea

Yeah, I got the HHR for the same reason, lots of room....

I usually do not need to haul the 2 Yamaha PA Speakers. So, on a normal gig, everything else fits with only the passenger side folded down. I can still fit 2 passengers.

All the clothing, computers, furniture, etc. that my son needs at college.

Every once in a while I take the dogs for a ride in there also.

I'm usually empty but when I'm not it's golf clubs, my tennis/squash bag, hockey equipment. On a few occassions I've packed the back full of camping gear to have some fun with friends.

I fit regularly:

3 piece mapex Orion (22, 14, 10)
w/13" Ayotte snare, 10" Timbale
Hardware bag
Cymbal case
Throne

Thats an easy fit though. I plan on a big Home Depot trip in a couple weeks and then we will see its potential.
