I often take my family of seven on trips in my GL8, and the trunk space does get a bit tight when fully loaded. Generally, it can fit one standard 24-inch suitcase or two 20-inch carry-on suitcases, but anything more won't squeeze in. I remember on our last trip, the seven of us brought five small backpacks plus two carry-on suitcases, and the trunk was just packed full. When all seats are in use, the GL8's trunk depth is only about a few dozen centimeters, so larger items won't fit. To optimize space, I recommend using soft duffel bags or stacking smaller bags. One advantage of an MPV is that the third row can be slightly adjusted forward, but the adjustment range is limited, so it doesn't help much. Overall, as a family car, the GL8 offers moderate storage capacity when fully loaded, making it suitable for short trips with light luggage.

I'm the kind of person who enjoys studying car details in depth. When fully loaded, the GL8's trunk capacity is approximately 220 liters. This means it can accommodate one or two 20-inch carry-on suitcases, or one medium-sized luggage. From a practical perspective, there's still some gap between the suitcases, allowing you to squeeze in two or three smaller items. The GL8's chassis design is quite clever, with some storage space under the seats, but it's hard to utilize when the vehicle is fully occupied. During my testing, I found that with compact luggage, such as 15-inch bags, fitting three or four pieces isn't a problem. The MPV's space flexibility is decent, but compared to the Honda Odyssey, the GL8's trunk is slightly smaller. Overall, when traveling with a full load, it's wise to pack light and opt for smaller-sized suitcases for better practicality.

At my age, when driving friends around in a GL8 with all seven seats occupied, the trunk can fit one suitcase plus two or three bags. In my younger days, I often went on long trips and experienced not having enough space for luggage, but later I learned to travel with just a carry-on. For example, during the last gathering, we managed to squeeze in three small backpacks and one suitcase for seven people—tight but doable. The GL8 is designed with some spare corners, but don’t expect to fit large items. Remember, when the car is full, avoid big suitcases and opt for small soft bags instead. Experience has taught me that a car is just a tool—use it wisely and don’t let it hold you back.

From a work perspective, I often drive a GL8 for team outings. When fully loaded, the trunk space is quite limited. It can roughly fit two standard carry-on suitcases or one medium-to-large suitcase, plus a few briefcases. During company events, we ask team members to bring small luggage so that when traveling with seven people, the trunk can accommodate two or three pieces of equipment. The GL8's space is considered average among commercial MPVs but better than sedans. The downside is the lack of additional hidden storage. It's advisable to choose lightweight luggage and avoid hard-shell cases to save space. For business trips, plan the amount of items in advance to avoid overloading.

As a frequent traveler, when the GL8 is fully occupied, the trunk can just fit one to two suitcases. For 20-inch carry-on luggage, you can squeeze in two, but only one large suitcase. I often use a backpack to free up space, like stuffing small items between the seats with a backpack. The GL8 scores full marks for comfort, but its luggage space isn't huge, so I recommend all passengers pack light for trips. Compared to the Toyota Sienna, the GL8 is slightly narrower, but it's sufficient for daily use. Remember, enjoying the journey is what matters most—don't let luggage worries spoil your mood.

What to Do If There Are Mice in the Engine Compartment?

First, eliminate any odors inside the engine compartment. Mouse urine is not only pungent and unpleasant, but it can also attract other mice to return to the engine compartment by following the scent. You can choose to spray perfume or take the car to a detailing shop for a thorough cleaning. Finally, change your parking location to avoid areas where mice frequently appear, and regularly open the hood to inspect the engine and other components. In cold weather, the warm engine compartment can attract various animals. While cats and dogs may only lie under the car or on the hood, smaller creatures like mice can squeeze into the engine compartment.
