Please recommend your vehicle that...

...will fit two carseats and a person comfortably in the 2nd row.

I see so many SUV's/Crossovers/Minivans that have captain seats in the 2nd row. That when you use the 3rd row you lose alot of your cargo space. The only vehicle that I think fits that description is the Yukon or Tahoe. Yet it's built more like a truck.

Please recommend your family vehicle...

Thank you!

the Chevy Traverse comes with captains chairs or bench seating. We bought it in November and love it! We came out of a tahoe and the traverse actually has more cargo space. The 3d row folds down completely as opposed to taking the seats out like we had to do with the tahoe.

I think they're offering 0% financing right now too Chat Icon

I just compared all the cars mentioned. They all seem like they would fit 3 well in the 2nd seat. I can see why you like the Mazda, the only problem I have is it only fits 5 we are hoping to purchase a car that has 7-8 passenger seating. I should of added that in my orginal post.

With the Chevy Tranverse, Outlook & Honda Oddessy, do you know if you can put Carseats right next to each other? Does it have the carseat clips in each seat on the 2nd row?

HillW9608I...Is that very similar to the Tahoe, more like a truck? That's a good point about the seats in the back & the 0% financing!!Chat Icon

The Mazda CX 9 can seat 8 (you might have looked at the CX7)

GMC Acadia--3 rows and yes I do have 2 captans chairs in the 2nd row(but you have the bench option too) so I can access the 3rd row easily. My trunk storage is still great Chat Icon I usually keep one of the seats down unless I'm using my 3rd row...
