Title: Car buying advice? Post by: computerfixerguy on December 11, 2014, 08:17:44 pm HEY GUISE
I'm looking at buying a new vehicle. I am leaning towards a van, suv, or crossover. What kind of vehicle do you use to haul around arcade games and pinball machines? What's your suggestion? cfg Title: Re: Car buying advice? Post by: mrdude on December 11, 2014, 11:02:16 pm Crossovers tend to be on the smaller side. My wife's 2010 Subaru Forester can fit a Ms. Pac-man arcade machine on its side but can't fit much else. It requires the front seats to be moved up a little bit so if you're a taller person I wouldn't recommend that.

If you have very few games a year, probably ok, dont have to worry about weather. Title: Re: Car buying advice? Post by: jasonsmith on December 20, 2014, 06:18:55 pm I use a big sheet of cardboard under the cabs when moving them in and out. Helps them slide and keeps them off the carpet. Don't know about other vans but once I stow the rear seat I have to remove my rear seat latches which stick in from each side if I want two cabs or pins in the back. The two latches suck up that extra 6" that I need.
