Wanting to shuttle firewood out to our cabin in my stock 2008 LC. Will mostly be seasoned hemlock. Anyone have an inkling as to how much I can get in there before I start hitting weight issues?

you've got about 1300 lbs of payload capacity which includes any tongue weight and people/gear. You have about 83 cuft of volume with the middle and rear seats folded down. A cord of would weights 2000 to 3000 lbs and is 128 cuft. Fill it half full and you will be fine but will have a mess inside.

Thanks for doing the math for me.
I plan on putting down some tarps to mitigate the mess but it is also a vehicle that gets used for a variety of messy endeavors.

I do it all the time. Nothing a shop vac can't clean up in a couple of minutes.
I realize the answer is about a year late, but if anyone is wondering how much chopped firewood can fit in the back of a 200 with rear seats removed but second row still up, the answer is a quarter cord. Fits just about perfectly.
Ah we’re posting wood pics now. This is from my old 100 series. Kept me and the boys warm for two righteous nights. Haven’t had the pleasure of hauling wood in the 200 yet.
