Erik, I have an '01 Explorer and it fits fine inside. Take the stabs off sit the tail on the center console, spinner fits just above the tailgate, little cushion so it leaves no marks, passenger in front seat starting box in the back, all works out very well. No removable rudder, no taking seat out, really simple. Wings in bags setting on other side of fuse. No moving, no hanger rash, just take it kind of easy on big bumps. My sukhoi has been riding in my explorer for a week now wainting on its maiden flight tomorrow. Good luck with yours.
