One of the things that really annoys me about cars is how anything put into the trunk of your car ends up flying all over the place when you drive.
For instance, when you buy groceries, it's hard to put them into your trunk (unless you buy a lot of groceries), and be able to get home without lots of things coming out of the bags. It's annoying.
I know that a lot of new cars have hooks that you can hang bags from, or netting that you can use to hold stuff. And I know there are cars like the Vibe, which are made for tie downs to be used in the trunk. But not all cars have those, and I would say that more new cars don't have things like that than do. Plus, there are a lot of cars where netting isn't even an aftermarket option. The trunks are just completely featureless.
Now that I have a long commute in my car, I have been trying to put together a box of stuff in my trunk that I might need in the winter. You know, things like a small, collapsable shovel and kitty litter. But I don't want the box to slide all over the place every time I turn. Trunk netting is an aftermarket option for my car, but I think that the stuff I have would be too heavy to have in the netting 24/7. So, I guess that I'm going to put a bunch of empty boxes into my trunk so that nothing can move.
