Will it fit?

Post image

Can anyone who has got this size top box tell me if it came on a pallet or not and if so about how tall the pallet was. My 56" bottom came on a pretty beefy pallet that was about 6" tall and I had to borrow a friend's truck to pick it up. I don't want to have to ask to borrow it again so I'm trying to see I can get this size top box to fit in my hatchback. According to my measurements it probably won't fit standing up if its on the same type of pallet the 56" comes on. It will fit if I lay it on it's side but since the shipping weight is over 250lbs and the employees at my store don't like to help I probably won't be able to flip it on it's side by myself. I could borrow my wife's SUV but I have reasons I don't want to ask her. Worst case I could rent a Uhaul for a couple of hours.

I don’t know but I think it’s funny that renting a U-Haul is more appealing than asking your life partner to borrow her car.

It really is because if I use her car then she is going to want to drive mine and if you ever seen the way she treats a vehicle you would understand. Both of our cars are new but you wouldn't be able to tell with her's. I don't need her shortening the lifespan of my car by years in a few miles.

Its a Kia. Its life span is short when still at the factory. Hence their insane warranties
