I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee and you'd be surprised what fits, especially with the back seats down.

How deep are the drawers in the taller cabinet? I think that's an awesome way to store thread, but most of mine are 5" in height and don't fit upright in most drawers. I do have the shorter cabinet and may get another. It fits under the longarm table nicely and stores so many things that need to stay flat.

One thing I found was that, if you line the drawers with that bumpy plastic shelf liner, the thread doesn't move around when you pull the drawers open.

Here are my Alex cabinets. I picked up some inserts from Menards (for tool chests) and had DH cut a bit off so they'd fit in the narrow cabinet.
and my thread for my first LA that my current LA hates - and my Juki is not a fan of it either.
Here is having the rolling cart set up for an ironing station next to the machine. The cordless iron works great in this setup.
I bought the plug in strip so I don't have to crawl under the table to plug things in.
The table is also IKEA - it is adjustable height so I can change it depending on what machine I'm using. Though I've only had it a few weeks so have not used any other machine on it yet.
