Default Snowboard

Is it possible to fit a snowboard into the SRT-6 Coupe? Either in the trunk itself or from the trunk to in between the seats? I am looking at possibly purchasing a coupe but would like to know this before pursuing the issue further.

If you can fit a person in the front seat, you can fit a snowboard.

Are you kidding me? You'd drive a great, rare, sophisticated German-built sports car through the snow and scratch up the interior with a snow board and all the grime? That would be a sad day for some poor SRT6!! If you like the car, get one, but then go spend 2 grand or less on a beat up old truck for winter driving and snow board hauling. C'mon people, spend a few bucks, and get some beaters!

I'm relatively certain that you can fit a board in the car. I say "relatively," because I'm not wiling to risk damage to try this with mine.

My suggestion would be a roof rack, along with some snow tires.

I'm with you all the way. Just doesn't make sense to drive any sports car in the snow that isn't AWD. Get a Subaru, would be my advice. More room, good performance and the beauty of AWD for the winter season

Many of us forget that 30 years ago, many people drove RWD vehicles to the ski slopes.

I've driven high horsepower musle- cars in the snow and it's not bad with appropriate tires.

If I had the budget and wasn't so concerned about keeping the car perfect, I'd take her up to the ski slopes. Who needs a 911, when you've got an SRT...

I still do. I drive my rear drive f150 to the slopes. My point is, why would you even want to muck up a nice car like the SRT for snow board duty? Not that it can't, but that it shouldn't be used for that sort of thing!!

Hey my Wood Burton fits in its glove and in the passenger seat with the top up!

And with the top down!
