"2021 Subaru Ascent with 2 intermediates with the second row up. Fits our 62lb GSP and 58lb Malinois." -Emmaleigh Holder

"2023 Honda Pilot Trailsport. 2 mediums and an intermediate (plus still room for one of the 2nd row seats to be up). The 2 mediums house 28lbs cattle dogs, the intermediate is for a 42lbs border collie. The border collie could squeeze into a medium, but he’s leggy and it’s a bit cramped, so since we spend a lot of time in the car at trials and such I sized him to an intermediate." -Elya C.
