Be careful. At least use your seat belts.

Sure - it will be a few months before I need to do it - but in the mean time if you want to try - 1) move the passenger seat completely forward 2) put a front wheel in the center of the back seat (it stays there - it’s pretty stable) 3) put a rear behind the passenger seat 4) mive the passenger seat back so it holds the rear in place 5) put another front on the passenger seat 6) move the drivers seat as far forward as possible 7) put the last rear behind the drivers seat (it should slide in) 8) move the drivers back in position - it will not go ALL the way back just FYI but enough for a comfortable 2 hr drive for me.

The wheels are pretty secure. Of course if a semi is going to crash into you all bets are off- but for usual senarios I see them being secure. Yes one could either use the seat belt in all three or a strap for further security- that’s a good idea

I would bring a fresh pair man. Those look ready to go. Especially if you're doing hard pulls...

Nice set of 4 furniture blankets off Amazon are your friend for this, I've done the same thing several times with zero interior marks or scuffs.

Just learned the rear seat of my ZLE folds down so next time I'll see if this improves the process.

Not sure it even makes a difference but I'm road racing. I've signed up for a local 1-day event. I normally leave before the last session to beat traffic. They need to last 3 sessions. I will be watching them closely.

$40 tire totes work great, I don’t have any marks but appreciate your skepticism to an idea
