"This reminds me of a tangential gripe that I have. Ford's Transit Connect is a nearly perfect mini van, it gets decent gas mileage and because the seats stow flat, I can almost load it up like a truck, save for loading it up with a dump of manure. The main drawback though is that the interior is about 3" shy of 4' across which makes it really hard to cram in 4'x8' sheet products. It would have been really easy to design the interior paneling so the user can transport three or four panels of plywood in the space above the driver's head (there is a lot of clearance between the roof and driver). I can't be the only minivan owner with that does this on a semi regular basis. That would have been really cool. I guess I could make those alterations myself..."
