Default Travel Chairs

So as new owners we used what would fit in our trunk when we were doing road trips last summer. We want to buy 2 chairs that will fit in our trunk when the roof is down and still put in some other stuff. We see prom some pics that people are using folding camping chairs. Mostly those don't work for us as my wife has some back issues and needs some back support. We are looking and can't seem to find anything, Who is using what and where can we buy it.

2 folding chairs in a XF roadster with a bag. And roof down

This would be about it.




Available from Canadian Tire
for back support, best to lean against a tree or the car

Thanks, but that's a stool. We need backs.

once Again
It’s a roadster. I also have one
extremely limited cargo space

it’s almost impossible to get one folding chair into the trunk. Good luck with 2 and a small travel bag.

for back support lean up against the car or a tree

I use the "chair in a bag" folding chairs. have arm rest, cup holder and back rest. Pick up at Walmart, Costco, Dicks or some discount stores. Work well, will fit in roadster with top down. Good luck

We have a couple of those folding chairs in a bag too. Problem is most don't have much back support and require some effort to get out of. My wife has some back issues which these types of chairs tend to aggravate, we are in our 70's you know and not everyone can just lean against something. My wife has been looking for chairs and size is a challenge for sure. She suggested I post and see what others have/are doing. We see pictures of gatherings and there are lots of chairs being used. Thanks for any suggestions.

Thanks for the amazon lead > won't ship to Canada. Something like that may work, but 40 inches overall is now a car issue. It's been a challenge to find something for my wife, that's why we have asked for help.
