The third row seating is only good for small children. see full Nissan Pathfinder review |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
Rear seat is cramped. I would gladly give up the third row seat, for more room for the rear (2nd row) seats. see full Nissan Pathfinder review |

Rear seating is small for long hauls, and seats WAY too hard see full Nissan Pathfinder review |

Even tho there are rear seats, I would never ride in back, too small back there. see full Jeep Wrangler review |

It has the ability to go back and forth but not tilt the base seat. Firm but not being able to adjust the angle (like electric 10 way) makes a difference for tall and full frame people. I will be looking to adjust angle asap. see full Jeep Wrangler review |
