Default Fits a sheet of plywood?

Hey,

Does anyone know or have any experience hauling a full sheet of plywood in the back of their RX? I have a 2008. A sheet is typically 4x8 after doing some quick measurements it looks like it will work but want to know before I go to the home center store and find out if I am wrong. Thanks!

I've tried to do this a few times. Keep forgetting that it doesn't work. The wheel wells and the height of the ceiling will prevent you from getting it in. Also the hatch door will have to stay open. You'll also scratch the sides of the upholstery while moving it in and out.

What I've done is to have the lumberyard trim the sheet to rough dimensions for what I need and then I can put those pieces in the vehicle. If you need a full sheet, put it on the roof.

Thanks for the insight Bob! You saved me a big headache! I'll be reaching out to my brother to borrow his truck.
