Big and cavernous, would hold three adults easily! see full Ford Taurus review |

There is room, but not so much room that I feel lost (as in the newer Taurus-former 500). see full Ford Taurus review |

No rear head rests. Plain design is just not as comfortable as the fronts. see full Ford Taurus review |

Regular sized adults can fit in the back seat without too many problems. see full Ford Focus review |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 145-horsepower 2.3L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I like seat backs that are firm and have the bolstered sides fairly wide apart for my back comfort. I never get physically tired in this seat. see full Ford Focus review |

Adequate room for me, at six-foot-six and 275 pounds, and my normal-size wife. The back seat is, well - it's the back seat of a two-door hatchback. see full Ford Focus review |

Short seat track makes it tight for tall drivers and there is no "dead pedal" to rest your left foot on. see full Ford Focus review |

Driver's seat collapses like clockwork every 50,000 miles and needs to be replaced. With a used one from a junkyard, since dealer cost is over $1,000. Yeah - a thousand bucks for a manual cloth seat! see full Ford Focus review |
