I've committed some pretty zany hauls in my time. The latest was
transporting about 15 Apple ][+'s and //e's complete with monitors (some
monochrome, some big Amdek color), disk drives, and ImageWriter printers
(only 2) in a two-door Honda Civic. I have pictures to show the magnitude
of ridiculousness.

The last picture shows the contents laid out.

This was a lot easier in my old 4-door Honda. Now I drive a nice new
Camry but I'm not ruining the leather interior with this sort of nonsense
:)
