The seat is not as comfortable as Chrysler or Toyota. This is not an issue except for very long trips (6-8 hrs). see full Nissan Quest review |

The rear seat slides for and aft making for lots of leg room or more cargo space when you need it. I also like the center armrest and upright position. see full Pontiac Torrent review |
