Prado - space behind 3rd row seats

Geoff
Just correcting my reply. That measurement is from the 2nd row of seats. I have removed the 3rd row of seats.

Thanks that's very helpful.
I did not specify a Prado model because I do not have one.
I'm wondering if a Prado will be big enough or whether I need a 100 series.
I presume that the 3rd row seats are not very comfortable in the upright position, is that right?
Thanks,
Geoff

The third row seats are quite comfortable if you're younger than six years old. But that's about it. From memory, the 120 series has less space behind the third row seats than the 90 series.

Hi again Geoff

The third row seats in any 4WD are really only for children but we have had older people in ours from time to time. Really depends on length of journey and size of person. You should take your kids with you on a test drive and see for yourself. My brother always had Pajeros until he got a rotten one then after driving a Prado wont ever go back. His kids couldd not believe how much better both rear seats were in Prado to their old Pajeros (he had plenty of them, each new model when they came out) My series Prado has seating for 8, latest Prado (150 series) is now seating for 7 same as Pajeros. But the second row slides back and forth which is great. If you get earlier one, get a Grande just to get the dual air conditioning - front and rear.

I will check tomorrow about the fridge and seats for you as my fridge is in there, but seats are still out on floor as i have been lazy since last holidays and not refitted them. Will double check sometime tomorrow and let you know.

I never had any of my kids complain about seating position with fridge etc in there. I think you would only have one up to 9 or so unless they were small with fridge behind it. Keep in mind if its not the fridge it will be something else there to stop seat going back unless its packed elsewhere. It does become easier as they get older to split the rear seats and only use one side. Then it comes down to if you are travelling at night and the fridge is noisy from cycling on and off etc. I have 3 kids (eldest now 19) and as they got older we used to put one in very back and other two in second row so they all had their own space. Now only 2 come and soon to be only one - so will then have plenty of space for all lifes essentials - beer, beer and beer ;))

cheers....

Thanks - very much appreciated.

Thanks for going to that effort for me Bob - much appreciated.
