Oddest thing you've hauled inside your HHR

A couple weeks ago I was at a swap meet for antique engines/tractors and related stuff. I saw a tractor implement that I've been wanting to buy. A rear mounted 3 point hitch blade for my tractor. This is a 6 foot wide blade with all the 3pt hitch and swivel works for the blade. Too good of a deal to pass up so I bought it.

The blade could be unbolted from the frame, and it would just fit inside the HRR at a diagonal.

Took my buddy and I a couple attempts to get it to fit and have the rear hatch close.

So we had two people in the HHR, plus all the stuff we had hauled down to the swapmeet, plus various items we both bought, plus the 3PT TRACTOR BLADE.

Needless to say it was quite loaded. Surprisingly I still got good mileage on the return trip. Actually the return mileage was better as it was on straight gas rather than the ethanol added gas I have to buy locally.

When my SS was 3 weeks old I transported a 2.5 ton hydraulic pallet jack in it.
It fit with no problems, the handle just cleared the rear view and was about 1.5" shy of the windshield

When we moved to Ohio, it road on a trailer and doubled as a storage container. filled to the windshield with stuffed animals, plants and other fragile things
