Also got a 6-7 ft tree in my X1. I had put out a blanket to lie under the tree, but I was at the front of the car when they shoved it in - without the blanket. I am still finding stray needles 4 weeks later...
Wish I could get my "beach cruiser" bicycle in the X1 but the wider handlebars prevent that. I don't want to mess with the roof rack because I am convinced that sooner or later I'll scratch the paint.
So that leaves either an after-market hitch and rear bike rack (with few current options for the US X1 and they are pricey) OR a foldable bike like the Montague (almost full-size)...which is about $650 for the base model...I have decided to wait awhile and see if more hitch options appear....
