Nope :-)

Since the rear window doesn't roll down I had to leave the hatch open.
That load of lumber would sometimes start to sway because it was
cantilevered.

That's why I gave up and bought a pickup truck five years ago. No
more fretting that some village idiot will claim he didn't see the red
flag tied to the load.

Also a whole lot easier to load bags of cement, sand and mortar. The
high-lipped trunks in the new car designs are murder on the back when
you have to lean in and over :-(

Such email obfuscators use one line of javascript.
I doubt if modern bots are not able to decode that.
