A perfectly reasonable reason to get a larger vehicle then! The purpose of this thread wasn't EVERYONE NEEDS A FIT IT WORKS FOR EVERYONE
It was mainly to show onesnowyowl and anyone else curious exactly how much stuff a Fit could Fit, so they could decide if they needed to buy bigger. I didn't want your cooler comment to give them the wrong impression...now, if you had said 'my saddles won't fit' that would be a different story, as not everyone moves saddles all the time!

Do you ever have passengers in the rear seat of your car?

My wife rides almost exclusively in the back seat behind me, as our daughter's carseat is in the back on the passenger side.

From autotrader "compare cars" feature (2004 Matrix vs. 2007 Honda Fit):
Advantages of Matrix Std4dr Wgn Manual (Natl) compared to Fit 5dr HB MT
...
Unfortunately autotrader doesn't take cargo volume or dimensions into account, so I can't argue that at the moment.. but those are all valid reasons for me to choose the Matrix over the Fit.

And I'm sure there are plenty more valid reasons as well!
Advantages of a Honda Fit for me: $2000 cheaper in the configuration I wanted, (new, remote keyless entry, cruise control, auto tranny), slightly better gas mileage, I liked how it drove and looked better (I drove both!), and I like Honda better than Toyota. Doesn't mean there's anything wrong with a Matrix, that's why they make different cars!

p.s. the Versa IS tiny, though!

Yeah it is. At least it's better than the Yaris though....silly little baby corolla, bleh!
