When I went to the beach last year it was my roommate and all our stuff. And we had alot of stuff. And when I moved I packed a bunch of stuff in the MINI, too. And TJ can fit in there and he is super tall!

Yeah, Yuengling is brewed in Pottsvile PA. Leinenkugel is to Wisconsin as Yuengling is to PA. Or something.
Bah! They have a location in Tampa too now. I vaguely recall a college roadtrip with a girlfriend to Pottsville to visit the brewery (she lived someplace near there). That was some trip. I went to college in MA...

Wags,
Are you sure you're not a musician?

Speaking of which...Banky!
I'm concerned about this too...you got three guitars in and an amp. I've got my Epi Emperor Regent, '79 Strat and '76 Les paul plus my Bassman ( and a few assorted pedals, etc.). I used to be able to stuff them ( minus the Epi, which came later)) into my '72 Volkswagen...and still wedge one unfortunate person into the rear seat. Ah forget it...my wife will make me take the F150 no matter how much I want the cool factor.

Another muscician here. I took my Beringer Blue Devil amp, a couple of LARGE gear bags, and my biggest jazz guitar to the dealership and loaded a MINI before I even began to think seriously about getting one. It passed w/ flying colors. I bring this much, and sometimes another amp and guitar or two on gigs. No worries. All guitars are in hardshell cases. There's no room for anyone in back after loading up, but the navigator's seat is still available.

One of the stipulations I had before ordering was that my Fender Twin should fit in the back of a MINI. Well -- not quite (unless I put the seat backs down). I bought her anyway

I've had myself, three BIG teenagers and all their (and my) assorted bookbags and stuff in my MINI on the day I drove home from the dealer! Its happened several times since. 90% of the time it's just me, though. Sould be interesting the when I pick up my two college kids at the airport with their stuff. Also, I don't travel much with my classical guitar, and if I did I'd have to put a seat down to get the case in. I've been toying with the idea of toting around a baritone yuke, though, should I need a music fix. Those little rascals are sweet!
