The seats are not as comfortable as my trucks seats were. They are pretty basic but so is all of the interior of the Wrangler. It is made to get dirty, not look good or be comfortable. see full Jeep Wrangler review |

There is not much rear leg room and the seat has you sitting straight up instead of slight recline. see full Jeep Wrangler review |

This is honesty the only complaint i have about the 2006 XT. The rear seat is a bit tight. We took three other adults on about a 4 hour trip and it was a tight fit - good thing we're good friends! My wife's 2009 Forester is much better in the rear legroom department. see full Subaru Forester review |
