that's the only reaction I can come up with. A van I'd do that too, not a Gran Turismo. You're a braver man than I.
What’s the problem, we do it here all the time...lolYou drove with your hatch lid OPEN?
Shh, they don’t understand what a Ute is . Lol
Living on that big island really buggers with yer thinking mates ........................
A rose by any other name ...
Kudos for dogged determination, but at some point those $19.95 short term truck and van rentals at Home Depot have got to start looking like an attractive alternative ...
Triangulation is a wonderful thing. Just driving around with the hatch unlatched puts all the side pressure on the hinges alone. I think my sleep was less than ideal last night because of the images created by this discussion!
I've hauled lots of things in mine that required the hatch to be open but I use bungee cords to hold it down with a piece of foam to protect the body workTriangulation is a wonderful thing.

Not believing, of course. We say "if you don't have a pic it didn't happen." But really, for stuff like this it needs an in depth video to even start believing what you're seeing.

I'm a believer; if the load isn't plastic boxes, like the unbelievable pic looked like to me; I see now that it, too, is "only" cardboardHow's this?
. That last case in your link is going down.I would never have believed it if not for that picture. So what did you call them?A rose by any other name ...
Sadly, a class of vehicle that kind of went extinct over here. I love those old haulers - still quite popular with the collectors.

Yep and that’s just the groceries for his family for the week. Lol
The accepted title seems to be 'coupe utility', but as there were really only two marques nobody I knew ever called them that - they were usually just referred to by their name, either the Ford Ranchero or the Chevrolet El Camino (and its twin model the GMC Sprint). They were build on station wagon (estate car) chassis of already existing models. I guess 'Ute' would have applied equally well here, but never really caught on.
