Large Egg Box Dimensions

Wondering if anyone still has the box their L egg came in laying around. I'm trying to gauge whether or not it'll fit in the back of either of our cars (we both drive hatchbacks), or if i'll need to rent a truck to pickup my egg. 

Any help is greatly appreciated.....AND

I know, I know, I know, how in the world does a guy from Texas not have a truck. Believe me getting rid of my truck is on the list of things i miss the most, just below my XL egg.

    Mine came in 2 boxes. 
    Box #1 = 24x24x27.5. 
    Box #2 = 22x22x6. 

    Note on the above. Mine is a little over 4 years old now, so the box or boxes could of changed. Hope this helps.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    If anyone with BGE reads this post, maybe they can give more up to date info. The Buffalo should know or at least be able to find out.

    Thanks for the help. If they haven't changed, it'll fit in my car so that'll avoid the hassle of trying to rent of truck for the less than 10 mile trip.

    You could always take it out of the box and put the base in the shotgun seat and strap it in with the seatbelt. Captain obvious says put an old blanket over the seat to protect it. Congrats on getting an Egg.

    The new ones come in one box......but that's only been in the last few months.  

    Just pull the dome and set it in the back.  Do a clean burn first.

    I brought my large home in a Maxima. No way the box would fit so I had to leave it with the dealer. Parts in the front seat, back seat and trunk. Just in case, I suggest not bringing passengers. =)

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Took the large Egg out of box to fit in the car. I could have easily transported 2-3 eggs that way.
