I've seen this guy driving around Asheville. Has a VW wagon w/ their logos on the car. Pretty sharp looking wagon. Not affiliated w/ them but I looked them up after seeing the VW.

that's the only SUV size they have. I'd email DAC and ask about fitting your model year. worst case, order one and try to fit it. if it's too large, return it.

it does attach via shock cords so it has plenty of size range.
also, across the top edge, there's a fibreglass shock pole to thread across that edge to keep the top extended. I've not really needed to use that pole so it's not in there in my photo.
and if you're a bit handy, it wouldn't be hard to sew in a dart to take up fabric if you need to...

good luck with it. it's been super handy for me.

Wow...that is SUPER cool! I just ordered an Aliner Ranger hard-sided popup my self. It won't be here until mid/late March and I hate missing the winter surf here in Texas. Was considering just camping and sleeping in the back until the camper comes in, but was unsure how much weight the styro trays underneath would hold. I'm 5'11'', 195 lbs. Should support my fat butt, shouldn't it???
