    Questions about Honda Fit.

    1. Does it require having the rear seats out FIRST, therefore it's no good as a "roaming" car? (I thought they folded over, but maybe it's not a low enough fold)

    2. With the rear seats out?, can it handle a wide-body WPC?

    Quoted from jay:

    The rear seats fold into the floor, they do not need to be removed. A Fit can easily handle a WPC wide body game as well.

    But no passenger, correct? So you have to ditch the passenger, if you find a pin on a road trip.

    I still see two big issues with the Fit.

    1. The rear entrance "barely" handles a folded over WPC. I measured one creating a shape of 29.5" by 26" and that's about the biggest rectangle you can get through the rear shape (which is not a rectangle, it has curved edges).

    2. How do you handle the 8" drop from the bumper to the rear cargo area. That looks like a deal breaker for me.
    I can imagine raising the floor -- building a 2' x 3' wooden floor with a hinge that unfolds, and then inflating an air mattress underneath it to fill in that gap. Idea being -- so that you are roaming-ready.

    Seems like a pretty non-pinball friendly vehicle.

    WOW! I can see the marks on the top right corner of the rear entry - that was my concern.

    So how do you raise the pin up 8" to begin to remove it?

    What about a Prius 2014 v5?
    It looks like that model has an extended hatchback area?

    Asking for a lil quick help!

    I'm considering:

    2016 Rav4 hybrid (has a battery hump and a slope) https://www.rav4world.com/threads/anyone-figured-out-how-to-flatten-the-cargo-space.231369/

    That 2016 Rav4 hybrid slope doesn't look like any fun...

    any thoughts on the Rav4 hybrid? (gen4.4: 2016-2018)

    This slope looks like pain. 20240423_144609 (resized).jpg20240423_144609 (resized).jpg
