Sunroofs are great for transporting long pieces of lumber which do not fit in a sedan!
I once put 7 2x4x8s in a 1998 Taurus SE (no sunroof, and worse yet, back seat didn't fold. I got lucky, having bought 7 for a small project before discovering that 8 would not have been possible to fit in the car. Took a bit of maneuvering to get them in and out of the car. Ended up with the front ends under the dash and the back ends above the rear shelf, diagonal bottom right to top left.
With my folding seat 1997 Achieva, I carried 10' pipes and conduits on occasion, but that was easy, tuck the front end under the dash, then over the reclined passenger seat, and into the trunk. Again, quantities limited to what would go on top of the seat and still fit under the dash.
As I type this, my pole saw and a 7' fishing rod are in the Saturn Ion. Since they're both skinny and I don't like a sharp saw rolling around, I tucked them between the passenger seat and the doors.
