Car Forum / Chrysler Cars / December 2006pacifica
I rented a pacifica the other day. Very nice car. Can you fit a 4x8 sheet in the back if all the seats are removed or folded down? Approximately 76" from back of driver seat to inside of lift gate, just measured it yesterday. BF > I rented a pacifica the other day. Very nice car.

Yes it is nice, but if you get one make sure you carry a ground sheet to access the inadequate spare and of course to pump it up. if it cant fit a 4x8 inthe back then it is a useless vehicle for me. I need to occasionaly bring home wood and plywoods for my hobby. >> I rented a pacifica the other day. Very nice car.

I need > to occasionaly bring home wood and plywoods for my hobby. For that occasional use what's wrong with the old effective solutions; a roof rack or a small trailer. I often have 4x8 plywood cut down a bit so I can carry it in my open car trunk. My supplier will do about three cuts for free, so I don't even need a table saw. Having a very large vehicle to occasionally bring home materials is very wasteful IMO. > Having a very large vehicle to occasionally bring home materials is very > wasteful IMO. I agree. When my elderly Grand Voyager wears out I plan to buy a small 4 X 8 utility trailer. Empty they weigh 500 lb. so you can haul a useful load behind a Caliber, Compass or other sensible size vehicle quite safely. welll there you go....its your opinion.....and we know how much that is worth >> Having a very large vehicle to occasionally bring home materials is very >> wasteful IMO. > > I agree.

That trailers weigh 500 lb? I got that off the sticker on the trailer. That a Caliber or Compass can safely pull one? That's what Chrysler says. No "opinions" needed here. Or do you think that my "opinion" as to what I intend to do after my Grand Voyager dies is worthless? If I can't have an "opinion" about my own future purchases, who can? Some people have no life. >> Having a very large vehicle to occasionally bring home materials is very >> wasteful IMO. > > I agree.

And to make it even easier and more economical, if you're fortunate enough to live amongst good neighbors, you can all even share one :) Take care. Ken thats funny. putting plywood on a roofrack....wadda dweeboid! >> if it cant fit a 4x8 inthe back then it is a useless vehicle for me.

On whose planet is a Pacifica a "very large vehicle????" Its not a Suburban, you know. For that matter, its not quite as heavy as a decked-out a Town&Country minivan! > On whose planet is a Pacifica a "very large vehicle????" Its not a > Suburban, you know. For that matter, its not quite as heavy as a > decked-out a Town&Country minivan! Interesting question. Is the Pacifica a truck? I assumed it was sold as a car. The Pacifica is about the same weight as a T&C MV. Heavy for a car, but not that heavy compared to a Magnum. The Pacifica and Magnum are about the same length as the LH cars, ~200". They were about 3,400 lb., about 1,000 lbs lighter. We all know the Suburban is a BIG personal truck; it's weight shows it. Weights in lb. at Yahoo.com: Cars...

T&C Minivan'06 LWB 3.8L V6: 4,340 Suburban 1500 2WD: 5,269, 2500 BIG 6L V8 AWD: 6,074 Not to get off the subject, but I have a 2006 Pacifica and I was wondering if there is a way to disable the the seatbelt alert that dings until you buckle up. >I rented a pacifica the other day.

Can you fit a 4x8 sheet >in the back if all the seats are removed or folded down? in my opinion....its very wasteful to buy such a large vehicle only to disable the seatbelt dinger. > Not to get off the subject, but I have a 2006 Pacifica and I was wondering > if there is a way to disable the the seatbelt alert that dings until you > buckle up. > >>I rented a pacifica the other day. Very nice car. Can you fit a 4x8 >>sheet in the back if all the seats are removed or folded down? lol that's not the reason i bought it. it's not that large of a vehicle either. It's perfect for my family! > in my opinion....its very wasteful to buy such a large vehicle only to > disable the seatbelt dinger.
