Demonstration of the Honda Fit's versatility
If this picture wasn’t so gruesome, it would be a great advertisement for the Honda Fit. The small car has very versatile configurations that allow the owner to haul just about anything. In this case it’s a huge buck.
Ali, a co-worker from DCS ’s husband is a conservation officer and he had promised to get me a deer this season. I, however, would be responsible for picking it up and getting it to the processors. I got the call on Sunday and put the seats down in the car. The front passenger seat even goes all the way forward and then folds backwards allowing very long things to be hauled.
I arrived at Darlage Meat Locker to ge the deer processed only to be told they were full for the day and to arrive before 8:00 AM the next morning. I had to pack ice into the cavity of the deer and keep it wrapped up until the next day.
When I showed up the next morning there were all these big pick-up trucks and mullet-y hunting guys waiting with their deer. They were stunned when I pulled the largest deer of the group out of this sub-compact car. Yes! Absolutely! I just pretended that I shot it.
Does your wife’s neck ever get sore from shaking her head in disbelief?
No, she fairly used to it. She was more amazed that I would put a deer in my car. I am meticulous about my car. No eating in it. I make the kids pick up all their stuff. Wash and vacuum it once a week.
that Honda Fit is cavernous! Looks like you could still squeeze the kids into the back along with the deer carcass.
I just told Robin the deer story…and her neck got sore from the same disbelief.
