    Have you tried it? Looking to upgrade from my Prius C and would love to be able to fit a pin in it.

    Interested in this question too. Keep meaning to go by the Toyota dealer and measure the hatch opening. you need at least 30 inches in the vertical for a Williams (back glass folded down on base) and I think a Stern might be a bit more, so 31? I don't think the problem will be with the space between the wheel wells or length but could be wrong on that too. HA! sorry I wasn't more help but it's been something that has been on my mind too.

    I can fit EMs and any game that I can detach the head in the C but I'd gladly upgrade to a V if it gives me the convenience of fitting a DMD

    Should work fine if you take the head off.

    I have a Prius V and I'm pretty certain a folding head pin won't fit with the head attached. Outside that, I've been able to get everything up to a Black Hole in mine, but I wouldn't want to have to stuff another Black Hole in there. It was a very uncomfortable drive home

    Everything else, including a Paragon, has fit pretty well but the widebodies require some creativity and use of the front seat, so a traveling companion could be trouble. Standard size machines are no problem though.

    Just measured the vertical space in the hatch area and it is 29" tall. You will have to take the head off the pin.

    What about a Smart Car?

    I have a Toyota highlander and they fit just fine in there but I was looking at a Prius V. I guess if I get one I'll either have to borrow someones car or rent a car to get another pin.
