2006 GMC Yukon Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2007 | 4dr SUV, ext. 320-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic RWD |
The standard power seat offers unlimited seating positions. see full GMC Yukon review |
2006 | 4dr SUV 335-horsepower 6.0L V8 4-speed automatic AWD |
The seats are big, have a good amount of padding, and still provide some side lubar support to help keep you in the seat during hard cornering. see full GMC Yukon review |
2005 | 4dr SUV 335-horsepower 6.0L V8 4-speed automatic AWD |

Captains chairs might be more comfortable than front seats. 3rd row is essentially useless. Remove the seats for extra storage space see full GMC Yukon review |
2018 Toyota Highlander Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||

3rd row seat is midget sized. Claiming that the Highlander is an 8-passenger vehicle is a lie. It's either 5 normal-sized people, or Snow White and the 7 dwarfs. There is no way you can accommodate 8 normal-sized people comfortably in this car. see full Toyota Highlander review |
