I don't normally store stuff in my trunk as it adds unnecessary weight.

Lol. You're a cool guy. Most use their cars as a daily and use the trunk for its intended purpose.

I was thinking the same.

This thread is obviously not directed toward performance.

Obviously you got the wrong point. I use my trunk when I need to carry stuff around, but when I'm doing my normal driving to work and back or just tooling around I don't carry unnecessary stuff in my trunk. BTW I know I'm a cool guy. LOL.

I was just saying that I always carry around my toolbox in the trunk, cuz my EVO always seems to break down! hah

I have a feeling I'm not the only one....

Good idea, but then what happens if you get a flat tire?

With a trunk cage and a net, everything stays put.

It's one thing if the weight came from the manufacturer and it's another thing if you are choosing to put weight into your car. Come on now, use your head for something other than a place to put your hat. J/K

Hey Russell,

Is the OEM cargo net still functional with the trunk lining removed? I still use the flat carpet board.
