Here are the corgi mobiles we've had over the years:
Nissan Xterra - Too high for ours to jump on, the front seat is fine, but it's impossible for them to jump on in the back seat. Very nice cargo space, but muddy paws can be a problem.
Lexus ES300 - Leather get scratched up, the tan color interior does help to "hide" the fur, cargo space is a joke, cannot fit any wire crate in the trunk. Good height for the dogs to jump in.
Lexus SC300 - Rear seats are perfect for the dogs, no human should ever sit back there, it gets really really hot in Florida summer, right height, very heavy doors.
Toyota Matrix - Awesome plastic hatch area, wipes down easy, you can use a garden blower to blow out the fur, rear hatch glass open, wire crate fits in the back, plenty of cargo room, great on gas. nice height for the dogs.
Toyota Sienna - very roomy, can fit the doggies plus family and cargo. Not so good on gas but definitely ride in comfort for everyone, especially road trip.
Now what do you drive? How corgi friendly is it? Lets hear the pros and cons :)
I drive a Nissan Altima and I've never had a problem with the dogs in it. Theres plenty of room even if theres a crate and because I have the cloth seats, theres no ripping. Kari's hair blends in with the seat anyways but shes not a shedder. The car is low enough that they have no problem getting in and out, even little Jackson. The windows are nose print magnets but thats nothing new.
I have a Mini Cooper and my rubenesque older corgi can jump into directly onto the passenger side seat. They're actually fine to slide behind the seat and go to the back. At first they weren't sure what I was trying to get them to do. I've fit a lot of stuff in that car. 22 pumpkins. 12 shipment boxes and a shoe rack. a 5ft christmas tree, but that one was hilarious.
I have a corgi sticker on the back of my Sentra :)
Seriously, I think my car is corgi friendly because it's low to the ground and Shiro can jump in and out without any help. Cloth seats are easy to wash and vacuum, sun roof.
