The front seat did not go back far enough for a very tall person, headroom was good, head rest pushes your head forward which is horrible. Passenger seat has a glove box near ankles which hits your shins. I guess they used midgets to design the car. see full Honda Pilot review |

I actually thought the limited edition of the pilot had a nice leather seats and I liked the position of the video screen. The only part that bothered me was access to the third row was circus like. see full Honda Pilot review |

This seat was not made for long distance driving. The armrest on the door feels cushy, but after a couple of hours your elbow is pretty much on hard plastic. see full Honda Pilot review |

| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 211-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
Large trunk space seems to sacrifise rear seat area. see full Chevrolet Impala review |

Not enough leg room. see full Chevrolet Impala review |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 233-horsepower 3.9L V6 4-speed automatic FWD |
When the drivers seat is all the way back there is little rear seat legroom for tall folks. see full Chevrolet Impala review |
