Yes I agree... 2 creates with the seats down.
Here's my 2002 with the dog crate in back 2nd row seats UP (no 3rd row seats)
Create is a Pet Porter XL 40Lx27Wx30H. 2 of these crates WILL NOT fit side-by-side in the Explorer.
In the X5 its a SNUG fit (height) after dropping the 60% rear split. The crate ends up slightly tilted (higher in front). I also find that I can't drive the X5 the way I want to drive it with the dog in the car. That wasn't an issue with the Explorer.
For safety reasons, I no longer transport the dog without the crate... used to until she was 8 months old... that's when she decided it was time for her to 'drive'.
