Belated pics of the now retired Tack Corolla (I've moved back into my trailer).
And yes, I picked my pics based on whether Tess was in them, not for the quality of the actual picture --> like focus and all that jazz.
2 flexi containers (cheap, from Target). One with horse stuff (the boots are velcroed onto the handles), and one with human stuff. Saddle pads on top, making a make-shift saddle rack which the saddle sets on. It takes up about half of the back seat. (the market basket in the floor boards doesn't count :)
Very efficient, but I've put a sweaty blanket in my car after a ride, it gets ripe pretty fast! How did that work out? Happy to have it all in the trailer now?
ReplyDeleteOh no, that reminds me, I completely forgot to remove the "very used" saddle pad from the front seat of my truck yesterday after my ride. Ack.
ReplyDeleteI use my haf pad that rinses off for my conditioning rides and everyday rides so it's not usually a problem. It's clean and dries fast. The wool back that you see in the pic is a backup and used for longer rides (when I don't use the equipedic) and I only use it when my horse is clean......I must admit that even though the equipedic pad is a better pad it also smells rank after rides in a small car so I deliberately chose the haf pad for this, knowing I wasn't going on any long rides. So the short answer is --> it doesn't smell because I chose my pad based on this particular application........:).
ReplyDeleteAlso I will point out that with a rather furry white dog who is currently slobbering and drooling all over my car and dumping large amounts of hair all over, whom I do not bathe nearly enough contributes enough "animal-ness" to my car I'm unsure how much a saddle pad would contribute...
omg, that looks like my belated Corolla, the 1991 beautiful silver blue one, that i retired 2 years ago.

It's a 97 so probably a model year newer than yours - I grew up driving a 93, which was identical except for color to this one so it's a car that I very fond memories of :)
ReplyDeleteI can't ever decide what color this car is. grape purple? silver purple? gray?
The older corolla's are so great. I'm dreading having to retire this one in a few years, I don't like the newer corollas as well.
