The dual fold rear hatch is interesting but no good for a spare wheel mount. One thing that made me nostalgic for my L- Series Subaru wagon was the floor treatment-
'There’s no carpet anywhere in the cabin so it can be hosed clean'

Picked up some Sandgrabba mats for the new Challenger and I can't understand why makers don't offer that sort of complete floor treatment for fourbies instead of their useless car carpet and mats. Wakey wakey guys.
