    Going to the junkyard to pick up an l26 engine for my girls car soon and i want to rent an suv to bring it home. Will a Ford Edge have enough trunk space to fit the engine??

    From the looks of the pic it should work, but be interesting also.

    Ive hauled an engine in the back of my old 92 Mitsubishi Montero. But a new SUV goodness. I dont know. The motor might just drop through the floorboard through all the thin sheetmetal and plastic. Or you will look like one of them fancy lowriders with magnesium/tungsten skid bars dragging the ground, Throwing sparks for a few hundred feet.

    Yup buy a set of screws and say you need a truck to deliver it.. Seriously don't even need to go thought that just call or go up there IIRC it'll be cheaper then a rental.
