Thank you for answering a question I've had for awhile - how they make these 5ers with headroom up front, still have basement storage and stay under height restrictions. Makes sense.
2008 Crossroads Cruiser 32BL (Mack); 2000 Ford F250 Lariat 7.3 (Doreen); 2000 A4 Audi 1.8T Quattro (Lightning); 2006 Subaru Outback 2.5XT (Sally); Last but not least - one great wife and two beautiful kids.
Any opinions are my own and not of my employer.
