What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2006 Nissan Xterra

2006 Nissan Xterra Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2006 4dr SUV 265-horsepower 4.0L V6
5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range		 The seats are supportive without being rigid. I like the easy to clean, removable seating material. see full Nissan Xterra review
2006 Nissan Xterra Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2006 4dr SUV 265-horsepower 4.0L V6
6-speed manual 4WD, part-time w/low range		 The rear seat on the XTerra is not spacious, but it is sufficient for shorter adults, kids, and pets. At 6'4", I'm cramped and the narrow door opening doesn't help with access. Still, it's far less clastrophobic than the FJ Cruiser. see full Nissan Xterra review
 

What Our Members Are Saying about the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2011 GMC Acadia

2011 GMC Acadia Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr SUV 288-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 The third room has enough head room to even fit an adult comfortably and is wide enough to accommodate three individuals. It is one of the few SUV's that offer 8 seat capacity and has a larger interior capacity than a Tahoe. see full GMC Acadia review
2011 4dr SUV 288-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 we travel with adults not children and find the 2nd row very comfortable. see full GMC Acadia review
2010 4dr SUV 288-horsepower 3.6L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic AWD		 Better 2nd & 3rd row comfort than the Honda Minivan (this is to be a daily driver for a family with 4 kids under 10) see full GMC Acadia review
