Why it matters
The standard extender measures 52.4 x 24.8 x 21.7 in, supports up to 400 lb and adds about 40% more space. Ruff Liners lists fits such as the Tesla Model 3 and Y, RAV4, CR-V and Equinox, and says the standard size does not fit full-size trucks. It includes window inserts, anchor straps and a travel bag, and is machine washable.
Who it's for, and who should skip it

Pros and cons
