One of the problems I find with a day hatch is the large amount of room they
eat up in the rear compartment.  This is an area that can hold a number of
large parcels.  The other thing is the way you need to organize aand arrange
the compartment.  It seems like what you want is always deep in the space
and requires unloading other things to get at it.
