Luggage in a Convertable?

[disneyagain]

I see that it shows 2 small suitcases in the description on the rental car website. Does that mean 2 rolling carry-on sizes??? We'll probably have 1 rolling carry-on a medium sized rolling bag, 2 back-packs and an over the shoulder carry-on. The back-packs and shoulder carry-on can go in the car with us, if they don't fit in the trunk.

DH and I rented a convertable (sebring) for a day while we were in California in April, I was surprised how much leg room there appeared to be in the back seat, I never thought to look in the trunk at the trunk room.....

Is there more trunk room with the top up, or the same either up or down?

We're contemplating surprising the kids and renting a convertable for our August trip...DH, myself, DS (13) and DD (11). It would just be to get us to/from the airport and around Disney (I was amazed at how easy it was to put the top up and down). I really don't want the surprise to be on us, when everything doesn't fit and we're left standing there in the parking garage

TIA!

Generally if you put the top down it will take 50-95% of the trunk space.

I recall having a Mustang rental a few years ago, and I was able to put my roll on in the trunk. It would have fit two of them, not much more.

In my SKY I can fit my camera bag and a gallon of milk when the top is down. I'm not kidding. Even with the top up I'm not sure even a small suitcase would fit.

Having the top up or down does not affect the amount of trunk space available in a Sebring (didn't with the Mustang convert I owned either ). The top doesn't go down into the trunk, so there's no difference.

Also, the trunk on a Sebring is larger than on some other convertibles (the Mustang, for instance).

Usually, we can get several pieces of luggage in our Sebring, including a large suitcase.

I think you'll be able to get all of your luggage in the trunk.
