They are great for kids to get in and out easily, especially when there’s car seats involved.
Other than that use case, give me a second row bench every time.
That's precisely the reason why I won't be getting a Y L. I love my Y currently (my 2nd) but I use the bench. Now give me the space of the Y L w/ a 5-seater and I'm sold lol
I'm sure there will be products, if there aren't already, to solve this issue. Put the middle row up and have a rigid-bottomed dog seat cover on it. The hard bottom bridges the gap. Problem solved.
Yeah, you can’t get the captain’s chairs if you have dogs. Did you not think about them before you bought the car? This is why I bought the five seater
