Things you might not know about your Boxster

[rick3000]

-The front trunk fits a full size keg perfectly (http://986forum.com/forums/general-discussions/51048-what-i-did-my-afternoon-2.html)
-The rear trunk was specific designed to fit a set of golf clubs (you may have to take them out of the bag, but the bag and clubs both fit)
-Phone Plug under the dash, is the best source for 12V switched 12V Constant, and Ground
-The red clip is good for 10HP+
-Every 986 already has the mounts for the RTS (Roof Transport System), put a credit card under the tiny trim piece directly behind the door and in front of the clamshell and pry it up, and it will pop off revealing the b-pillar mount location. The a-pillar mount is harder to see, as it is under the a-pillar seal.

another Boxster fact . . .

- The frunk and trunk can hold 3 cases of 24 beers each. That's 144 or one gross of beer. Ask me how I know?

It can also fit an adult... Just in case you need to, one day... who knows!

Only if they are cans. Frunk can hold equivalent of 3+ bottle cases if only one is a full case and the rest are 6-packs. Trunk isn't deep enough for bottles, but with cans, and splitting into six packs of them, I'll bet you can get to four cases.

If driving solo, at least three more cases can go on the passenger side, plus assorted six packs.

New Glarus Brewing and/or Calgary & Wisconsin Breweries | Wisconsin Distillery | Minhas

IMO, after multiple stocking runs to both, Minhas has better beer and better value, but New Glarus has higher brand recognition and "mystique".

Anything special in Winnipeg to warrant a beer run from WI?

Not really, but if you come by way of Kenora the roads ar cool and you can grab some two-fours of BRAVA and deliver it here. Can't get BRAVA in Manitoba and it is cheaper than any Manitoba two-four. Oh yeah, if you do make the trek, bring some of that fine Wisconsin cheese.

But how many bags of milk?

And then there is that question. Can't really find bag milk in Western Canada. It is really an Easter Canadian thing. But you got me thinking. How about bagged beer? Now that would be interesting. Bags of Moosehead.
