Default Grocery Shopping with a 911

Well, it finally happened today that we ran out of space in the frunk and rear seat foot wells and still had 2 watermelons left to deal with.
So enter the rear seats and I threw in the belts for added safety.
It got me thinking that this could become another fun thread.
Let's see some pictures and stories, as well as practical tips, on how best to maximize the limited space in our cars.

Pics or bust!

When shopping for my mom's birthday I filled the frunk up with groceries, and also had paper towels that couldn't fit in the frunk along with a passenger and this huge multiple piece "happy b-day" balloon.

It took some work to get the balloon in and it made a very annoying sound the whole drive home, but it was worth it!

Son bought hockey gear on a day we had driven the Porsche to the rink.... For some reason I "thought" it just might fit in the frunk.... Not even close!

Drove home with son, wife and myself... Hockey gear as well behind my seat.

I agree that these cars are practical. I often get quizzical looks when loading groceries and Home Depot orders in my car, but it all fits, even if i have to fold the rear seats flat and, even then, there is space between the seat and the folded seat backs. Practical Sports Car. Sounds almost like an oxymoron

I recently fixed my most pressing problem with this Yeti which holds exactly 3 growlers and fits in the rear seat foot wells. Now to work on 2 sets of golf clubs - carry bags, not club bags.

A picture of a 911 and a pair of melons. How novel.

You bet. At $45 each I have two for the bar fridge at home and two in the vacay home.

Ive hauled more groceries, toys, guns and golf clubs in this baby and other 911's over the past 10 years that combined probably cost more than they did Its always fun how capacious a 911 is.
