One of the original reasons I bought the LR3 was for that big fold flat cargo area. When it was just the wife and I, I could lay the seats flat and really cram a lot of gear in there for our summer vacations.
A couple years ago we had our first child, which meant I had to raise the rear seats to accommodate the child seat, and I bought a Yakima roof box to accommodate most of my kitesurfing gear (i.e. my toys). Now, most of my toys are up top, and family luggage, beach chairs, cooler, strollers & kids toys are delicately packed in the rear of the car as only a Tetris game master could manage.
This summer we're expecting a second child....and got a dog (chocolate lab). I think I'm tapped out on space now. Maybe the dog could fit between the two child seats, but that is kind of tight for a lab to lay down. So she may be in the back, which really makes the rear storage tight.
Not sure what I should do for future trips and was curious how you cram the family and a week's worth of luggage and toys into your rovers.
Appreciate any pictures or tips. Thanks!!!
