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.
