The third room has enough head room to even fit an adult comfortably and is wide enough to accommodate three individuals. It is one of the few SUV's that offer 8 seat capacity and has a larger interior capacity than a Tahoe. see full GMC Acadia review

Stow-n-go seating is very uncomfortable. Rotating seats have no room to sit face to face with rear seat passengers. Base model forces one to get a center bench. see full Dodge Grand Caravan review
