Default Cargo Tie Downs

Looking for a new car and this one is a remote possibility, but this
makes me curious:

The very first option: Cargo Tie Downs It's a hard-top
convertible. Where would cargo tie downs go? Where would the cargo go?

micky,

Did you look at the pictures? It's a hard-top convertible. You can tie
down to the roof and the trunk-lid.

I saw that it was a hard-top convertible, but you can tie things to the
roof and trunk-lid of any sedan. They don't call that cargo tie-downs.

Okay, I even played the video this time, but all it does is zoom in and
out on still shots, like how PBS makes a video with pictures from the
19th century.

It's only about 10 miles to go see the car, but I don't think this
question makes it worth it .

Thank you.

Dave M.

I'm confused. Are you staying that you don't want to drive 10 miles because you
don't understand what the cargo tie downs are for? What if they are a good thing?

Are you actually passing in the car because you can't get an answer in a.h.r?

Heck, even if I didn't want the car, I'd drive 10 miles just find out what they are. I
might learn something that I can use elsewhere.
