Big Things in the Back of a Model Y!

May be not the biggest one thing but 12 bags of various composts from garden centre. Loads of room and without dropping back seats!

Haha, same. We also filled it with everything we needed for a month+ trip to Colorado, and another trip we moved everything off the boat we lived on, and another trip filled with supplies for a trip to New Mexico.
The utility of the Model Y is amazing. If you take the deck boards out you'll get more depth for large objects but I like have the separation for organization.

So am I the only one a bit disappointed by the boot space of the MY then? I don't seem to be able to get as much into it as I thought I would?. Overall the space is big but the shape is a bit limiting. Can't seem get 4 large suitcases in which I could in my Skoda Octavia. The slope is quite steep and the tailgate trim seems to encroach into the boot a long way. I am forever closing it and finding it hits something and I have to re-organise.
I would love it if the seats were on a slide. I know there is a tilt which helps but there is way more leg room than my kids need. I would love to be able to re-distribute some of that space to the boot.

For road trips I've found that getting rid of the sub-trunk divider (at home) allows to enjoy the deep sub trunk + all of the above space much more efficiently. In this configuration there is almost nothing that wouldn't fit.
But I agree that In terms of length, I would have liked just a couple more inches between the tailgate & rear seats at times.
The length of the MY with rear seats folded and driver seat moved forwards slightly so that I can still drive is just over 2 metres, so you would not be able to transport a 2.4m worktop. Unless the boot lid is open.
A door that measures 185 x 80 cm fits easily.
A 2.4m long piece of timber fits if it rests on the drivers arm rest, but only because its narrow enough to fit between the driver and passenger seat.

How long before Tesla decide that front passenger seat is rarely used and remove it as a cost saving exercise…

2 big labradors. ..who could both lie down comfortably in their beds without touching each other (because if they touch when lying down it's a disaster 
)
And all our stuff for a 4 day trip up north for 4 people under the boot floor with some jackets in the frunk.
We have been impressed with the space but haven't really tried to move a lot of large stuff yet

Likewise. If they had just extended the roofline and made it a proper estate instead of some awful looking coupe/suv

Don't have pictures but just moved house with my Y and can say you can fit and IKEA Expidit/Kallax 2x4 unit perfectly in the back with the seats down and a 2x2 fits in the boot without folding the seats.
Worktop sounds a bit too long. Might be able to jerry rig it between the front seats if you’re willing to Risk your screen.

For MY, invest in rear pet protector drop-in or tarp for transporting mulch, dirt
Also for carrying 8 foot lengths of wood, a towel or a protector of the arm rest
I run the wood diagonally left rear to passenger area crossing rhe arm rest
Works great
