Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Serious question - How do people with smaller vehicles haul things - Phone a friend, rent a truck for the day, ...? We have two large vehicles. I haul big things for work (25 miles per day, 3 miles at a time=16mpg). Spouse often has to haul people for work and does woodworking as a hobby (90 miles roundtrip to work=24mpg). So, yeah, we do go through some gas.
I have a friend with a prius and i was surprised by the amount of space she has. I don't know that it has the cargo height that I need, as I sometimes run into issues with that in my Jeep Grand Cherokee, but I'm going to check it out.
Normally people dont haul huge things all the time I guess. Like, at least 95% of people driving cars are not hauling things at this moment.
Cargo van at home depot. It's $30 to rent for the time it takes to make a round trip with stuff
I have things to haul about once every few years when I move. Occasionally if I need to haul something I ask a friend/family with a truck to help me. I think when people complain about these trucks being gas guzzlers it's mainly pointed at the trucks people buy when they don't need them and just want a big vehicle that they don't actually use for hauling. They effectively buy a truck to use as a car, which is dumb. If your work demands hauling big things a truck seems completely necessary. If your hobby involves moving big stuff, like woodworking or my friend that is really into home improvement, it makes sense to have something with hauling space.
I drive an Altima, what I'd classify as a "salesperson" car because it gets decent highway mileage and has enough storage space for personal belongings/luggage for long drives in the trunk and paperwork in the front. Outside of moving I think the biggest things I've needed to move in my car are people, a computer tower, and camping/sports equipment, which can get a little snug but is usually fine.
