        Whatcha. I need help. Again.
currently I have my EDC bag that I lift in and out every day full of useful farmer things. It works well. However I also have many things like boxes of emergency nails and screws and stuff and also the wheel change equipment wedged all over but out of the way of the main load area. Thing is all of it could easily be 30 kg which is essentially dead weight most of the time but it's always there. I'm trying to decide if I would be better with all of it in a crate in the load area that is easy to remove but takes up real estate or do I carry on and forfeit the weight saving available?

        I've tried roof storage and it's not for me, with 4 bales of hay in the back I need the head room. Really it's more about having the weight easily removable as opposed to the lack of volume when the weight isn't a priority. I guess it would be prudent to take everything out and get an accurate weight of it all and decide with that in mind.

        I removed the back seats and fitted a home made box for basic walking essentials and maps. The top of the box is flat so could easily accommodate another box. The sides of the main box have tie down points for straps.

        Initial reports suggest they are even worse for payload than the 3 door.
