Whats the biggest thing youve fit into a thirdgen?

I ask this because I was moving to a new place and only had a borrowed truck for half a day, so I used it to take couches, tables, beds ect. At the end of the day the last big thing I had left was my tv. With my firebird my only transportation I decided to try and fit it in. I forgot to take pictures, but I can confirm that a 50 inch Plasma TV will fit in the back seats..... Just. Whats the biggest thing youve put in your thirdgen?

Re: Whats the biggest thing youve fit into a thirdgen?

I gave my brother and 3 of his friends a ride in it once. My brother was riding shotgun and his 3 friends (2 of which were at least 200lbs and 6' tall) were in the back seat. The largest nonorganic thing I've fit in my car was a trofee that was over 4' tall.

Brian Hower. He weighed well over 300 LBS. The whole car leaned to the right and I could hear the springs sigh with relief when he got out.

Re: Whats the biggest thing youve fit into a thirdgen?

My entire keyboard setup including an amp that's 28x26x13inches, two keyboards, and a large bag of cables. That amp also fits perfectly in the back of a c4. Fit a whole drum kit into a fourthgen once, and another time fit a boxed futon that wouldnt fit through the door of a guy's sunfire.

Re: Whats the biggest thing youve fit into a thirdgen?

This thread really stirs some memories of high school. '86 IROC.

Several times I had 6 people in the car, 2 front, 4 in back (1 laid across the other 3). Mostly chicks in back - they are small. LOL.

I've done some other things in the car requiring "contorsionism" but I can't mention them here.

Re: Whats the biggest thing youve fit into a thirdgen?

Three tier Cat tree, we tried it three different ways and folded seats down. But if you know what a Cat tree is, all levels are at a different angle. Finally got it in and he said it might break your rear window. I said I had insurance and drove the 30 minutes home!! Those things cost about $250.00 and it was like new! Got a great deal on it!!

Re: Whats the biggest thing youve fit into a thirdgen?

Let's see.... I fit a full-size Pearl drumset with 3 extra toms and 2 additional cymbals once... I've fit myself and 4 others on trips here and there... I routinely put a plastic sheet down so I can fit 8 foot hardwood boards in to take to my woodshop. I probably need a truck... :P

Re: Whats the biggest thing youve fit into a thirdgen?

EVERYTHING I OWNED! When I joined the military and drove it from the East Coast to the West Coast! It was my first car, a '88 Firebird Formula blue - MINT CONDITION! I was 18 y/o! The back was literally packed and I drove with 1 arm up holding up the mountain of possessions I had in the passenger seat! I got pulled over once in every state...NO TICKET received! I blew the water pump in Texas...the girls there LOVED the accent I don't have! And the alternator in...Joplin, Missouri? That was a wild night while it was getting repaired...It was like: Jersey Shore meets Rodeo! Got out to the desert and had to deploy so it sat in a parking lot with my entire life in it for months. My CDs melted! It was a mess. I miss that car, it was in such great shape, it got stolen in 2000! Soon I'll be retiring and plan on heading BACK east with everything I own in a '89 Firebird Formula...I'm not sure if that is sad or awesome?! Ashes to ashes!

Re: Whats the biggest thing youve fit into a thirdgen?

Once i fit a set of vette rims in the back. barely closed as the spacing aint all that much. i believe they were the 18x9.5 front rims. and the 19x11s sat in my back seats haha.
also hauled around 6 6 foot tables from work to my house. they were free and going into the trash so i threw what i could in the trunk haha. i tore my tint in a few places too. was only a month old haha
last but not least was about 100 pool noodles also from work we just had laying around. and like 50 sets of connector foam peices. i couldnt see out my rearview or my passenger window. was a fun ride

Re: Whats the biggest thing youve fit into a thirdgen?

We had 7 people in my Iroc before. She didnt like that too much.

Largest item ive had in it was a loading ramp from a heavy duty equipment trailer. It had fallen off a trailer and i saw it on the side of the road. It was exactly what i needed for loading bikes and things into my truck so I had to stop and get it. About 5-6' by 2' and 200lbs of steel. I put the back seat down and slid the passenger seat forward all the way and put it in through the hatch...

Scratched my rear plastics though =/

Re: Whats the biggest thing youve fit into a thirdgen?

I've moved in mine at least 6 times

Bass Stack - 4x10, 2x10, Head, Bass, and another person

A Power Wheels Camaro

A full size Eliptical

A 10 bolt rear

Honda hood, 2 fenders, front bumper, bumper reinforcement, headlights, and another person

I'm sure I am forgetting some things... put the passenger seat all the way back, the back seat down and open the hatch and you can fit some really long pieces of wood or whatever. These cars can be adjusted to fit a ton of stuff in them, you would be surprised...

I brought home my 125g fish tank. It is 6' x 1.5' x 2'. I once moved an entire waterbed w/headliner in my old '88 Formula.

Re: Whats the biggest thing youve fit into a thirdgen?

I didnt expect this, but my new front chin spoiler piece barely fit into the car. It was in a box, which severely limited my options to get it to fit. In the end it did, though.

Other than that, a 2x12 guitar speaker cabinet.

I fit my son's crib in the back of my car the other day. It was a tight fit.
