Would a couch fit in the back of our VIBE?

Post by danielal »

Im in a bit of a dilema here. I am picking up a couch and loveseat that my friend is giving away. I was wondering if one of these items would fit the back of our VIBE...The couch and loveseat are regular size.Thanks...

I don't know if the overhead clearance is enough to get a regular-sized couch in it. Even if it did, it would likely stick out the back some.Maybe if the cushions were removed...

loveseat, maybe if the back isn't too high or it isn't too deep. Couch, very likely not.

I wouldn't mind if the couch sticks out a little bit since I have something to hold it to prevent it from falling.

as someone already said, maybe the loveseat, but there could be a clearance issue. as for the couch? no way! i'm sitting on our couch and loveseat, and thinking how we'd get it into the vibe.... i don't think they'd fit, because they are really wide. why not just rent a $19.99 Uhaul van?

That's going to depend on how big they are. I guess the loveseat may fit, but not a couch as it is longer. It's hard to tell without pics. Maybe you could try measuring the length, height and width of the loveseat and couch and do the same for the interior of the Vibe and see how that works out.

my couch fits in my vibe. with a measuring tape, measure the height of the couch and compare it with the interior height of the vibe.like isaid, mine did. it's a part sectional with a detachable chase.
