Fitting a 4.5 cubic ft fridge in a car?
I've got a 2011 Hyundai Elantra and there's a fridge in Debert that I want for a fermentation chamber. By my estimation it should fit in the back seat. Anyone try this kinda thing before?

This one time four of us packed in a Kia Rio to pick up another guy and his old tube TV so we could play 8-player Halo but the TV wouldn't fit in the trunk so I had to ride back there instead. Ate a Whopper while I was in there too.

When I had a Hyundai Accent I picked up a 4.4cu FT Costco bar fridge in the back seat, barely fit though. (it was in the box).

My wife had a Honda Fit once and we were able to put a 40 gallon water tank in it.

Hatchback can fit easy. Sedan the biggest problem is getting it in the door.

I don't know how the Elantra compares to a Sentra, but we were able to fit a 4.5 fridge in the backseat of that. It was tight though and out of the box. Good luck!

Just a heads up. It will fit
Picked it up for $60 brand new used for 3 months!
