Dang, I was hoping the Honda Fit would be big enough for a common upright Victrola. It fills all my other criteria. What about the Kia Soul? and doesn't Hyundai have a hatchback?

I am on the verge of getting a new vehicle & thought I'd ask the advice of Phono-L members since, like myself, you all have need to haul antique phonographs. I'd like to have cargo capacity to transport the "typical" Victrola (XVI), the "typical" Edison Diamond Disc Phonograph (C-250) as well the Orthophonic "Credenza" - when I need to haul an Orthophonic changer or a Capehart, I'll continue to use my 1969 GMC pickup. I want a smaller, more economical 4 cylinder vehicle & have looked at Hondas (all of which have too small a cargo area except the "Element" which I consider unattractive) & Toyotas (Scion, Metric, RAV 4 & Venza,all of which will accommodate the above mentioned machines) & am leaning towards the RAV4 but thought it might be nice to get your input before making a final decision.
