2007 | 4dr SUT 247-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic AWD |
The most room of any "small" P/U truck. Comfortable driving position with lots of leg room. see full Honda Ridgeline review |

Cabin width. Big, comfy heated leather seats. The back seats are flatter and less comfortable, but kids like them just fine. The cabin has plenty of room and many storage bins. see full Honda Ridgeline review |

There is no hump in the floor, thus allowing the rear seat to accommodate three adults. The seat is split for folding up for more flexibility. see full Honda Ridgeline review |

A lot of room for a pickup truck. 3 adults can sit in the back. An adult can even sit in the middle between 2 car seats. see full Honda Ridgeline review |

WE FIT COMFORTABLY THERE AS DO OUR 2 KIDS AND 2 LABS. IF YOU PUT THE SEATS UP THERE IS A LOT OF SPACE FOR ADDITIONAL CARGO. see full Honda Ridgeline review |

2007 | 4dr Sedan 245-horsepower 3.0L H6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Leg and head room lacking for over 6 footers. see full Subaru Outback review |

I was amazed at how small the back seat is in this car. Really no bigger than a compact sedan, eg Civic or Corolla. I can't fit my 3 kids (in car seats) back there, and feel bad when co-workers pile in to go to lunch. Surprisingly small for a vehicle this size, and marketed as a "family car." If you plan to put adults or 3 kids back there regularly, look at the '10 or newer (or at something else -- the rear seat in my co-worker's Accord is far bigger and more comfortable). see full Subaru Outback review |

Too small for kids see full Subaru Outback review |

Too short! I am 6ft tall and the front passenger seat leaves me feeling very cramped. Drivers position is better. Seats also too narrow. Maybe plenty of room for skinny folks, but not for us folks that are large boned :-) see full Subaru Outback review |

The Outback is much smaller (but not cheaper) than the XC70. see full Subaru Outback review |
