Question:
Hi there! Do you think the MAL32VR could be used as a bed extender for a 2015 Honda CRV to safely transport a 12 ft fishing kayak Perception Pescador Pro 120? Id need to fold down the backseat, of course, and drive with the liftgate open and tied down, but, in theory, your product should work well for this purpose, no? thanks, in advance!

Expert Reply:
It's probably not the best way to transport a kayak on a 2015 Honda CR-V but it's also not the worst. The Malone Axis Truck Bed and Roof Load Extender with Load Roller part # MAL32VR should work fine for what you're wanting although there's going to be more wear and tear on your vehicle sliding the kayak in and out each time.
If you can budget a bit more you can get a much better setup hauling the kayak on the roof using a combo of the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars System composed of part # RRVA137B-2, part # RRRLKVA, and part # DK284 and the etrailer Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs part # e98878.
