The undulating "floor" of the created space compromises the space's
utility. One would be hard-pressed to stretch out there comfortably in
a sleeping bag, for example.

==================================

The Matrix forms a perfectly flat, hard plastic floor about 64 inches
long with the back seat folded down, and with the front seat folded
down (flat) it will easily carry many 8-foot 2x4s with the back door
closed. Not sure about the storm door, and I don't think (at over 6
feet tall) that I would care to sleep back there, but it's a very nice
space for cargo. A simple rubber mat keeps things from rattling around.

That's a very interesting piece of info. Thanks.

You're damned right it is!...now I need someone who can tell me
how to convince my wife to let me carry my 2X4's that way...

Alas, it is not to be. The seatbacks-down configuration does open a
space long enough and high enough, but the resulting gap between the
driver's seatback and the rightside B pillar is too narrow for the
boxed stormdoor. Also I found no dependable anchor for securing the
package at the leading end.

Na'theless, there likely are cargos for which the space would be
appropriate, and any possibility is better than none.
