I can sit comfortably and still see very well out of the back windows. I have driven many cars were the view is not that great, when you turn around and look behind and some piece of the car is in the way.
$16,000 bought me a car with a ton of features (for the price), a $100,000 mile warranty, and decent gas milage.
Well it has AC, rear seat floor vents, 60/40 back seat that extends the trunk, rear defrost, cruise control, steering controls for sound system W/speed controlled volume, and the interior light that slowly lights/slowly dims.
