A Jeep could be a great candidate for size, and I'd like to see it, but not so sure it holds with the "out of the TRUNK" concept. Not that it won't be one of my suggestions!
Meets the criteria I listed but...1980 caddy seville sounds like the car for you. (i think thats the only time anyone could honestly say that )
Gotta be a three on the tree dude.DODGE ASPEN / PLYMOUTH VOLARE driven by the Leaning Tower of Power ( Chrysler 225 slant 6 for the kids in the audience )

At 16, I learned to drive stick on a '64 Malibu wagon base model w/ 3 on a tree. No power brakes or steering.I'm with ya, I'd have preferred it, but not everyone comprehends ( I worked in a shop where a tech was adamant about NOT driving one because he couldn't understand how shifted, made me wonder about his other work.....)
I'd love an old Ford F-100 or E-100 with 3 on the tree again. absolute blast to drive !

I drove a bunch of em but never had one that you could always go from 3rd to 1st without it getting hung up.Almost always had to go from 3rd to 2nd then 1st.At 16, I learned to drive stick on a '64 Malibu wagon base model w/ 3 on a tree. No power brakes or steering.
Everything after that was cake.
People talk like 3 on a tree is hard to understand, I don't get it. It's exactly the same pattern, just sideways/turned 90 degrees. And, well, minus 2 more gears.

Those old chrysler/dodges had some cool lines and big trunks.
