I can't open the tailgate of mine without my 4-legged kids jumping in. They love my wagon as much as I do!

That's why all of my travel photos show the Thule roof-top box. These guys go in the back, and gear goes up top. The dog net in the cargo cover is actually what sealed the deal on the 535 as the wagon of choice when I was shopping. It was only after I bought it that I discovered all of the potential for fun with mods!

Similar story for me, learned about all possible mods after I got the car...I simply got lucky!

Very nice dogs, I put mine in last night for her first time for a short trip a couple of miles away.

Man, it does look small with such a big dog! I'm lucky.. ours is 7 lbs, so she fits in anything. But I absolutely love having the minivan as the kid hauler! Thankfully I'm a lot less OCD about my cars now, the kids were out playing today and they just "felt" like rubbing pictures into the dirty car from the snow/rain we've had lately. (having the only black car it turns out better.. ) I cringed the whole time and my wife even said she's surprised I simply said all the dust is bad for my son's allergy when she really was thinking in my head was stop scratching my car. lol.
