Like many others, I often use my SUV as a "pseudo truck".
This often means that I'm tying the rear liftgate down with bank line as because while the <couch/kitchen table/yard furniture/whatever> technically/sort of fits, but the liftgate doesn't close because the <couch/kitchen table/yard furniture/whatever> is in the way.
The Traveler seems like it will be an excellent "pseudo truck" in the sense that the rear cargo area seems very deep, and wide (wide enough to load a 4x8 please!?!?). And then additionally, when you fold down the rear seats, and extend the tailgate, you're left with a very large floorspace. Potentially even truck like capacity (other than height).
The feature I've not seen anyone else talk about yet is a Rivian R3-like feature where the liftgate can be "locked" at a certain height (ie, between closed, and open). This would help in those awkward "I just need to make it home from Lowes/my buddies house with this giant thing in the back" situations I inevitably find myself in.
Thoughts?
