The rear seats in this car (the two-row version) really are designed for adults; legroom is incomparable. Be aware that in the three-row version, the second row seats are moved forward to accomodate the third row, so there is less second row legroom. see full Chrysler Pacifica review

3rd row seat... great option, but difficult to get to and not really big enough for adults. Seats two kids without a problem though. see full Chrysler Pacifica review
 

TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee

2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearComment
2013 You can buy a BMW X5 or Porsche Cayenne with tame front seats, but not the Grand Cherokee SRT8. In the Jeep, SRT's signature buckets are standard. Large, firm bolsters provide excellent lateral support even to those of us with slender builds. Yet they're also comfortable, with enough padding to avoid park bench references. The four-way adjustable lumbar didn't do much for my back, but your experience may vary. Moving to the back seat, the Grand Cherokee's growth adds a couple of badly needed inches to legroom. With this improvement the Grand Cherokee only matches other similarly sized SUVs, so it's not a reason to buy. But rear seat legroom is no longer a reason not to buy, so it bears mentioning. see full Jeep Grand Cherokee review

They are harder than I would like. I came from an F150 with the luxury package and the seats were amazing, these sears are hard and could be improved upon by being softer. see full Jeep Grand Cherokee review
