You think taking a large bedded vehicle to a furniture store is asshole behavior? Well shit, I hope I can fit this entire bedroom set in my car... 🤦♂️
If it's from Ikea, I can probably fit an entire bedroom worth of furniture into my two door Honda civic.
Everything they make is flat packed, and you have to assemble it into it's 3D form after purchase.
I can stack so many of those Ikea items in my tiny shitbox.
I hate trucks and SUVs with a passion, but I don't really get the hate here. I could barely fit two Billys in my 2015 Volvo V70, or our new kitchen table and chairs because it was too wide.
I'll be installing a trailer hitch ASAP when we move because a trailer is always superior to trucks.
you know they deliver, right?

One of those would be better at IKEA
And before anyone says the Vito isn't available in the US - it is, it's just called the Metris. And if you get the passenger variant, you can get 8 people in there.
And for the unlikely situation that vito wouldn't do, there's still stuff like the Mercedes sprinter.
One that large to a furniture store that exclusively sells flat pack furniture, and parking it in an inconvenient way in the parking lot, yes.
You can fit an IKEA bedroom set in a lot of cars, and in all pickups with a >4ft bed.
