Really? That sucks... wonder why they decided to have the whole thing fold. Most of the passenger cars I've seen have the 60/40.

I don't know about the coupes, but my wife has an Accord sedan. You can fold down the center console and a pair of skis will fit, but you can also fold the whole thing down and get a couple boards in laying flat. Unfortunately, we can't take passengers with our boards because you can't just fold down half the back seat, which I think sucks.

There are these things called racks. Check 'em out...

91 volvo, 740 wagon, automatic, 2 rwd...very predictible handling, not great on snow and ice but predictable. Have fit 6 kids (teens) plus me as the driver, 4 snowboards, 2 pairs of skis in the old school rack and 1 more snowboard in the back. It has s 60/40 split fold down back seat (never used) cause we rack the gear and cram in the kids. So when you haul a wagon load its fairly economical.

Thats all fine and good until you have to or are forced to stop on a hill. My ScionTC can go well up the mountain with snow tires, but atleast twice this season i had to stop on a significant incline.
Took pushing to get me going forward, it was quite embarrassing and scary since there were other cars around and i had no real control.

yea true that. that happened to me once this season coming back from an awesome trip in mt. creek in jersey. once u leave the mountain there is a steep ass uphill that you have to go on. and on that day there was 8 inches of fresh pow and the jerk in front of me came to a halting stop. so when i was trying to get my momentum back going, i felt my car sliding. it was pretty scary when there were cars behind you. but i turned my traction control off and somehow got lucky
