you must eat like a rabbit. in the Imstricken household, we eat like pigs = and there is no way the G37s coupe is holding a weeks worth lol. add in "The Goat"(ms. imstricken's cocker spaniel) and some other work & school related stuff, and you have no space.

PS: the cup holders in our 2010 G are ridiculous. cant hold anything but a small bottle of water.

I didn't say a weeks worth, just a cart load. 1-2 cases of drinks, milk, essentials, frozen foods, cat liter and food, etc etc. I've had the cart filled to the top and still have gotten it packed in.
