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 |

The 3rd row seats have enough leg room and the seats themselves are well built. That said, I have not tried the 3rd row seats of close competitors like the Odyssey see full Toyota Sienna review |

The Sienna is an excellent family vehicle if interior space and overall capability are your priorities. It is comfortable for long family drives and you NEVER run out of space in this car. see full Toyota Sienna review |

I have the CE which does not have adjustable lumbar support or 8-way adjustments. The seat has a fixed height, which is a bit too high for me. Also the seat is a bit too deep. see full Toyota Sienna review |

At $35,000 I think it could be much better. Hurts more than my Tacoma 4X4 after a long drive. see full Toyota Sienna review |
