Need an SUV that can hold two 9' 4" kayaks

8' might fit, but not two 9'+ kayaks. One might fit if the front pbuttenger seat is folded down but not both of them, and that limits seating to driver and one or two behind him, depending on the 1-3 2-3 split in the folding 2nd seat. You might get one or two 2X4's in but not kayaks. Roof rack on a SUV, trailer, crew cab pickup with lumber rack type sports rack, or 8' bed pickup with tailgate down, or 8' bed with kayaks projecting up over cab or out over the top of tailgate. Highly unlikely that the old wagon fit 9' either unless they stick up over the front seat or maybe you gain that extra foot by putting them in on an angle; the old full size GM wagons could carry 4X8' plywood in the back with tailgate down (77 Chev and 86 Olds, others may vary).
