2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||

The seats are much improved over older explorers. You can ride for 4 hours and not feel tired when you get out of the truck. I have heated leather, which I recommend. The heat is in the lumbar, as well as seat bottom. Very nice seats. see full Ford Explorer Sport Trac review |

So bad I can't drive it much more than the 4 miles to and from work. The front seats are so hard that the first couple times I drove it I couldn't figure out why my feet were so cold. Because the circulation below my knees was being cutoff. I have tried extra cushions for the seat bottom and I have found something that really helps, but on longer drives, combined with the firm ride - bring your Advil. see full Ford Explorer Sport Trac review |

The third row seating configuration is just ingenious. Adults can ride comfortably and the seats stow flat with little effort. see full Land Rover LR3 review |

Three rows of seats. Seven people can actually fit. Two child sets and an adult can fit in the second row. Two human beings can fit in the third. see full Land Rover LR3 review |
