Would the following size kennel fit in the back of a 4dr with or without the seats up:
Width: 40 3/8"
Dept: 22" at widest point
Height: 29 7/8"

For sure would fit with seats down.

I currently have an Ruffland intermediate in the back of mine and it’s got plenty of room to spare. It does have to go sideways though and I don’t have a side door so that’s kinda inconvenient.

From what I've found, the cargo area is between 39 and 41 inches wide, so it either will barely fit or will not fit

Depends on where you're measuring from I guess. With the slight angle on the rear seats, that could make the difference near the top of the kennel.

Do you have the kennel already? Could always swing by a local Ford dealership that has a 4 door for sale and just ask to see if your kennel will fit in the back as I'm assuming you're waiting for your order to arrive.

I do not have the kennel, I want to make sure it'll fit before I buy it (they are $400+)

I have the Ruff Land large with side door, fits perfectly and side door allows my Lab to jump right in. I strap down the kennel to protect my dog in the event of an accident.

Would you think any larger would fit?

I don’t have an extra large so no idea if it would fit. I am out of town otherwise I could measure. There isn’t more than 3-4 inches on either side of the large kennel so if the extra large is longer than 6-8” I doubt it would fit crosswise. Most likely have to fold down backseat.

I tried to fit 2 intermediates side by side and couldn’t shut the door, going to try either the mediums or backseat riders

It fits! With the seats up

I went through this when my 2 door was on order vs. what kennel to buy. For peace of mind....I would go to a dealership and actually measure the area in a 4 door where you want the crate to sit. Then I would say it would be safe to order the crate. My guess, you will need the side door option which I have done in other vehicles too. Good crate for a happy dog!

I have 2 Ruffland Intermediates, 1 with single door and one with a front/side door now and with the slide out tray I know I will have to have the rear seat down.. When my Bronco gets her (Feb-Mar) I will check it to see if the Backseat Riders will fit. If they do I sell the ones I have and purchase 2 of the the others. 34# Brit's will fit just fine in the Backseat Riders.

That's what I ended up doing. It's a snug fit but it works!
