Who here drives a JEEP?

Hey everyone (under new username, lost all my acc. details before, blah blah)

I was wondering whether you could fit a standard, 3/4, or even a 4/4, double bass into the back of a Jeep Wrangler (renegade or sport). Maybe if you folded the back seats or something?

Not specifically EB related, but there's gotta be some people also lugging around a DB to gigs like me.
Cheers!

I drive a wrangler unlimited (4 door) but do not carry a DB. Occasionally an EUB but not what you were asking.

I have an 05 wrangler and yes a DB will fit if you remove the rear seat.

Hey Chowowbus, is your front passenger seat usable when you fit your DB in?
Would a hardcase be necessary if I was to cart around a DB in a jeep?
Yeh, the Wrangler Unlimited should have no problem fitting a DB I'd imagine.

Yes front seat is usable, and it was a softcase. It fit in kittykorner. Wranglers have more space than you would think once the rears are out in em...
Good luck with all that!
