2013 Ford Escape Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment

2013 Ford Escape Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2012	4dr SUV 171-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed automatic FWD	It's a tad bit tight in the drivers seat. I have to postion the seat just right to avoid hitting my right knee on the center console, and I frequently hit the light switch when getting out. I'm only 5'9", so not that large of a person. see full Ford Escape review

2015 Toyota 4Runner Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Comment
2014	Both the Toyota and Jeep have roomy second-row seats that are high enough off the floor to provide thigh support for adults. Only the Toyota offers an optional third row seat, but it's too tight to be of much use. If you want a useful third row in this sort of vehicle, check out the Dodge Durango. The Durango is essentially an extended, less off-road-capable Grand Cherokee. Its third-row seat is about as comfortable as you'll find in this size SUV or crossover. see full Toyota 4Runner review
