5 Best Cars for Drive-in Movies

A little extra trunk space make these cars the perfect seats for a flick.

With summer almost over, now's the perfect time to bring your movie-watching experience outdoors and visit a drive-in.

The Warwick Drive-in, in Warwick, NY, will be showing many movies from the traditional big screen this weekend. All you have to do is roll up, park, pop the trunk and watch.

But to be truly comfortable at the drive-in, you need a car with a good amount of space. For this week's 5 Cars, we bring you five cars good for the drive-in movies, as named to Consumer Reports' list of Best in Cargo Capacity.
